Any gamers? NCAA Football

[Coug90]

The EA Sports NCAA football franchise was one of my favorites in my younger days. Was pretty cool to get Wazzu into national prominence then beat out USC and Notre Dame for recruits during the “offseason”

The franchise is apparently coming back since the NIL came to be and players can now get their $$. Will be interesting to see if they include conference realignment and greedy schools making back channel deals to blow up conferences. In the name of making games more realistic this should all be part of the experience! Anyways, just some musings I had thinking about that game returning. What a world!

Haven't played a football game since NCAA went away.

One of the things I always liked was that the gameplay from the NCAA game to the NFL game was tweaked just enough to not be the exact same game except with different jerseys. I suspect that the new game will be just that - NFL with new skins.

I ended up ignoring Madden around 2000, and just playing NCAA. I played my old NCAA 14 and ignored Madden about a year ago, then got Madden 22 and have pretty much shifted back.

Probably a case of art predicting life.
