NCAA Football 09 Full Drive Video: IGN

[Rivals]

Is it confirmed that we can use formation subs? I loved those because they really open up the depth chart of schools like USC and Florida.

byu sucks

Im loving the vid. Im breaking dwn some of the things i liked in the vid.:

0:11 Notice how the safety seems to read the Qb's eyes and drifts back into the passing lane.

0:35 its a play called Spacing, I the entire O line has slanted lines. Considering all the routes are 5 yrd hitches this might mean the line is cut blocking.

0:49 Obvious the CB backs up to confuse qb pre-snap read. Byu player jumping up and dwn to keep his self warm, The RG points out assignment and adjust his pads.

1:17 LT is almost blown by, by a Lb untill he catches his inside shoulder(love this animation)

EA sports has finally added Boston College's zone blocking scheme from Alex Gibbs.

The zone blocking was in 08. It just didn't work that well. I hope it's more effective in 09.

it's great to see the video. glad it was posted. i'm sure it will be a good/decent game.
but...looks way too much like 08, which i'm into right now. and i don't play online at all, so the improvements there don't do anything for me.

at this point, i'm thinking i'll keep NCAA 08 and HOPEFULLY get Madden 09 IF the OS user reviews are good. Madden does look like much of it was revamped this year and the differences are noticeable thus far.
i'm hoping Backbreaker provides another quality option, too. jury is out on that one. not sure about that 3rd person camera angle the whole game. ugh.
