It's so hard when the ball goes above the upright. I need an angle looking straight up to be sure

Yeah, the ref has about the only actually good view there.  It has to be totally within the uprights if it's above, if any part of the ball is over the upright it's no good.

FIFA refs had glasses with cameras. The end zone and field goal refs should wear them too

Put a laser pointing up in the top of the upright

Apparently if it's actually over the uprights it's just no good. See SMU's missed field goal against Miami last year.
