Seven years ago, the ACC and SEC used collaborative replay on an experimental basis and reported their findings to the NCAA rules committee, while the Pac-12 used it on a limited basis in that 2016 season. Now it's an integral part of officiating across the sport's highest level every week. (AP Photo/Aaron Beard)
