There's a very simple answer to this question; maybe someone said it earlier, I haven't read the whole thread :

The Xbox 360 was initially easier to program, so it made sense to develop the game there and port it over. It's a shame, because even though the graphics chip isn't as good on the PS3, it's got the cell, which can perform a lot more calculations, and companies are learning how to make everything (including graphics - they offload some of the processing) look better on the PS3 now than when the NCAA team started development. They'd have to start from scratch if they were to develop/take advantage of the PS3.
