Delays this a.m. due to a need to sleep. We blame New York, where the bars are too close together for our good.
In the meantime, consider the preview of NCAA 2009, where home field advantage turns your pre-play route display into a bad trip.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.

As soon as they add a feature where players can’t literally walk through each other between plays, then I’ll be really impressed.

Also, I wish they’d bring back 1-AA (or FCS, grrr) teams.

Online dynasty? I remember when dynasties caused guys in my dorm to fail out of school. Now we will all lose our jobs. Terrible addition.

Supposedly after you throw a pick, you can keep some composure by guessing what defensive coverage was called during that pick. Man that will help my Texas Tech dynasties. For some reason there’s a OLB from Nebraska that if I throw anywhere on his side of the field in cover 2 zone he will intercept it.

The day that players don’t clip through each other between plays is probably the day that the coaches and mascots stop looking like haunted funhouse versions of their normal selves.
And because I have nothing else to add, enjoy a picture of Warren Buffett as Willy Wonka. Mars, the makers of M&Ms and Snickers, and Buffett now own Wrigley.

I’ll be impressed when they come up with the Mangino version. That is the feature where upon diving in the endzone for the TD, the coach rips him a new asshole on the sideline. Oh yea, and the version where Ralphie goes nuts and tramples the trainers.

Best line from Peter King’s draft wrapup:
“Early Doucet (81) lasted waaaaay too long after a starry career but groin-ravaged senior year at LSU.”
Yikes.

They need to have proper coach sizes for your created teams: Small, Medium, Large, Weis, Friedgen, Mangino.
Other than that, looks decent.

New York. Bars. Somehow I’m hungry for a cold draft or three and a JG Melon cheeseburger with cottage fries. Unfortunately 3rd & 74th is 500 miles away. Damn you and your power of suggestion, Orson.

You won’t have to wait long before you have a game where the players won’t clip through each other, ever…

It’s basically football with GTA IV engine.
How long before EA brings it to NCAA or Madden? Who knows….

Was it me or did I see an ad for Coke Zero during the audible demo around 58 seconds into the video clip?

Excuse me Stewardess, but I speak jive says:
The game has gotten so real it actually deducts money from my sportsbook.com account after an upset and comes with a Jack & Coke, players get paid by boosters and can actually choose which grad student to take their tests for them, and they can bang cheerleaders at the half after extremely good performances.
impressive.

I haven’t played a video game since junior high, I sucked at Asteroids, but that looked freakin’ amazing!
The mascot games looked funny too.

Glad to see the fans and mascots are back after their inexpelicable absence in ‘08. I wonder if you can still play in your highschool playoffs, where the state championship is played at *State* University. UT doesn’t have Tennessee’s state playofffs, damnit.
Also, new touchdown celebrations? Will the UGA endzone flood be in there as well?

I like how the only shot of UGA in the entire thing was of a dropped Auburn pass being intercepted. I wonder if they’ve got the authentic Tebow crying simulation that runs after a Florida loss?

@21 blackertai
I doubt it. Judging from that clip, they made Tim Tebow black. They obviously don’t know who he is.
