If it was not, then a small penalty like loss of a timeout or a small point penalty. I think it works well in the NFL, and although not perfect, I think it has the opportunity to add more positive aspects than negative.
But in football you have three timeouts so it effects you less than it would in first. After any challenge where it was a close call there is one side entirely unhappy with the outcome to the point where fans will yell at the tv or refs. The system now is bad but wait until a freshman is screaming at your drive coach to throw the challenge flag over 3 points not awarded.
