I'd have to agree the commentary sucks....these are the same commentaries on the old gen games. I don't think they have busy schedules other than families to be with.....plus it's not like they have to meet at one location, they normally go to a Studio, do their lines and then edit it together at the end.....NCAA is in need of some new blood as far as commentaries go .....can we get Chris Berman or Oh Nelly how bout Keith Jackson !!!!!!

Well, having played some games Im a little worried about the CPU Qbs thowing off their back foot..I still think they do it far too much

However I got a pretty good feeling from the gameplay(certainly not the presentation).

Though I'll admit I got my hopes up too high for this thing and feel somewhat disappointed

they should let me do the commentary, I'll make you pray for lee, kirk, and brad to return.

The better bet would be to go with a lower profile second team and have the lower tier matchups use that team. Then the rival and bigger games use the Corso group. You would get some variety. The lower profile group i would assume would be cheaper and thus could be in the studio for more recording.

At least we have the custom music for the home games.

I just had an amazing ending and thought I'd share. I was LSU and Ohio St scored to tie it up with 8 seconds left. I return it to my 40 with 2 seconds left and then look under Hail Mary in the playbook and see the play "Circus". I look at it and then realize it is a hook and lateral type play like Boise St ran. I drop back and realize OSU is playing prevent and the in route from the left is open. I throw complete the pass and just as my receiver is about to get leveled I hit the left trigger and he pitches it to the underneath receiver running in the opposite direction. He turns the corner and outruns the OSU DB's to the house. I was literally going crazy and thought it was cool that they included that play.

one thing that I forgot to mention. The graphics are gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. Also, playing both last year and this year, I am noticing quite a few new animations and some really cool tackling animations and player interactions.

One thing that I haven't seen talked about, though I haven't read every post, is the pass rush issue. I have 3 sacks(user, not team) in the 2 games that I've played. The team has 5 sacks. So, we'll see how this plays out. Also, QB's take some vicious shots in this game.

lots of posts stated how the cpu was far to accurate. And now a couple guys are consistently running back int's. Please give me a defense manual so I can get a couple pick 6.

The game is on VARSITY!

Last play of the game I used the hitstick and the ball carrier fumbled..I returned it 108 yards to make another score.

Absolutely crazy!!!!
