I would imagine all the team stadiums would be in(unless someone uses a new stadium or something). there were only about 6 teams that have generic stadiums. it's about that time that all were in. I think NCAA '06 on last-gen was the first one to be "stadium complete" for team stadiums, and the current-gen stadium have a ton more detail in them.

the remaining 5 or 6 bowl stadiums might be tricky though, depending on who has ownership of those stadiums and how old they are, etc...

Yep. We should no longer have schools with generic stadiums on 11. The bowls, as you say, are a little trickier because they are not included in our deal with the NCAA unless a school owns the stadium (like the Hawaii Bowl, New Mexico Bowl, MPC Bowl...).

Yes, hopefully that can be updated for next year.

Arizona has taken the white outline off the red script in the end zones.

Also as I've been saying for the last few years that hasn't been fixed yet:

1. Our crowd wears mostly red.

2. Our student section strectches from corner to corner on the east side of the stadium. Everyone wears red.

3. The visiting crowd is 1 section from the bottom to the top in the SW corner of the stadium.

Also, & idk if this can be added, we will have the largest scoreboard in the Pac-10 added on the south end of the stadium starting next season. If I see any pictures of what it's supposed to look like I'll post them in here.

Thanks.

I understand, the situation with the bowl games. That's why I was suggesting doing a replica. I.e. International and St. Petersburg bowls will be played in a dome stadium, Emerald will be in a baseball stadium, etc. I believe you guys did something similar with the Insight Bowl when it was played at the baseball stadium (forgot the name) in the last gen.

thanks

In 2007 New Mexico State added a walkway at the south endzone, along with a new $1.5 million scoreboard, with a 38 'x 23' video screen.

As pointed out by Solidice in a latter post, FIU's Stadium update is not in the game. See attached pic for FIU's Stadium. Also here are some pics of Western Kentucky's Stadium.

FIU's stadium in the game is not generic. It was expanded from 2007-2008 to look like it does now in real life. the one in the game is what it looked like before expansion.




there are only 2 generic types of stadiums in the PS3/360 version of NCAA. the Pro-style one and the Bowl-style one. in the game, Rice is an example of the "pro-style" one(although the generic stadium is not too far off to how it really looks like) and WKU is an example of the Bowl-style one for the generic stadiums.

My bad...did not realize that about FIU's Stadium, I will change my post. However EA has missed many updates to stadiums, some of which are 2 or 3 years old...if not older. EA must have used FIU's Stadium as a template for some of the 1AA Schools on the last gen versions because I saw several playing in the same style of stadium.
