NCAA12 Football Ratings
Reposting this for freernnur5 who doesn't have enough points to create a post. My edits are in parathesis.
EASports is releasing videos for each conference about the player ratings for NCAA Football 12. Below is the link for the video:

We start around the 2 minute mark. Here are the overall ratings:
Broekhuizen as an 82, is he a co-creator??
but that was the one that stuck out to me. 82?!?! I wish! Maybe they are dyslexic and meant 28. That'd be accurate...unlike his kicking.
is rated lower than he was fresh outta highschool
Whoa that was really funny
Disagree strongly with many of these relative to each other (not even looking at the 100 pt scale).
Broekuiszen at 82 makes zero sense -- they think he's a better kicker than DG is at QB? (79)?
They have Kovacs and Martin rated the same (89). I love Kovacs' grit but come on, Martin is a legit top-2 round prospect in the NFL, Kovacs will most likely not get drafted.
Dont understand how #6 in the Heisman voting got a 91 overall rating -- considering Molk is a 95 and isnt considered the top center in college football I'm assuming there are a at least a couple dozen people rated higher than 91. Makes no sense.
Actually a lot of people do consider Molk the best in the country. 95 seems perfect for where he should be.
Was not meant to be a knock on Molk at all, I love the guy and I'm certainly glad he's playing for Michigan. But to be the best center in the country you either:
1. Need to win the Rimington (sp?) Award given to the best college center for that year.
or
2. Need to be the first center drafted (thus considered the best NFL prospect)
As far as I know Molk isn't really considered very likely to accomplish either of those, thus the 95 rating confuses me. While Denard almost certainly won't be the first QB drafted in his class, he has already won the Silver Football for MVP of the Big Ten and was voted Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year. Both of those accomplishments lead me to think Denard probably deserves to be rated higher than Molk at their respective positions.
Just for re-emphasis, this is NOT a knock on Molk. I love the guy. If you want him to be a 95 thats perfectly fine with me, but using relative ratings Denard should be a 97 or a 98 by those standards.
I to do not agree with Kovac's rating. Nothing personal against him, but just not at that high of a rate.
probably has to do with position weighted average; athleticism doesn't affect the QB rating as much as passing ability. If you move him to HB he'll probably be a 99. If not, that's what custom rosters are for.
Should be at LB though
SS #4 has to be Cam, WR #85 is Joe Reynolds
Is freshman kellen jones
SS #4 - Cam Gordon, they just didn't move him to LB
WR #85 - Jerald Robinson (assuming this and they just messed up his #83)
I skimmed the video and it didn't look too bad, given EA is always "off" on the first ratings. Denard has a 95 speed rating and 99 agility/acceleration, so they didn't cheat him. I was surprised though to see that Mike Shaw and Stephen Hopkins have the same speed rating (87).
up Denard's speed and acceleration from last season.
i'd hope so
Denard Robinson
95 speed
99 agility
99 acceleration
90 break tackle
I think I'm satisfied...
Dear god....I wasn't going to buy this game. But I may have to just to play with Denard.
and he has dreads...
In real life, but the videos shown with him so far makes it seem as though he traded heads with LeMicheal James
Quick fix if you edit the roster.
Im still pissed his speed isnt 99.. definetly editing that sombitch ASAP.
Seriously. I understand the break tackle but when every single team has to gameplan for your speed its gotta be a 99
It's my opinion that they're nerfing him. Even so, Denard is going to cause a lot of broken controllers from nerd rage this year.
the 99 agility and acceleration is probably more useful than 95 speed. i can understand not giving a qb 99 speed (pretty unfair to play against), and his speed did slow down a bit as he got banged up throughout the year. I'm sure there were a couple DBs and WRs that would beat him in a footrace too, but probably not many.
having thesse ratings are much better because if he was 99 speed and 95 agility/acceleration it is harder to get up to full speed whereas having those vice versa makes almost automatically getting to the 95 speed
It's tough to say who the freshmen are without seeing height/weight and what state they're from (I use state as a tie-breaker when naming/editing the rosters). The number means nothing to freshmen in NCAA games.
is 93.. lol and big will at 72 ovr should change when the public sees his improvements
Martin got hosed.
LB ratings are atrocious!
They reflect real life unfortunately.
is that legal? they dont have the cities correct but Florida for Denard and V. Smith, Ohio for Roundtree, Illinois for Molk, and Arizona for Lewan and Roh
He doesn't think so.
frustrating that terrelle pryor is still in the game...
and readjust the depth chart. Or you can edit his stats and info to an OSU freshman that didn't make the 70 man roster. That's probably what I'll do.
I think these rosters were finished in December. Iowa still has Adam Robinson and he got kicked off the team in December, so there was no update since then...
One of these Five is not like the other:
Molk (95)
Denard (91)
Martin (89)
Roundtree (89)
V. Smith (87)
Leave Vincent Alone!
Denard - he should be a 100
YES. 100 RANKING PREVIOUSLY "UNPOSSIBLE". DENARD BREAKS GAME.
There are definate mistakes (Martin underrated, Kovacs slightly overrated (and impact player), Broekhuizen wayyy overrated, Denard underrated (but speed looks gnarly), Martavious wayyy underrated, and Carvin and Marvin should probably both meet in the middle), but it's not terrible.
It looks like we're underrated as a team, but if you compare it to others on the video, it seems more fair. I just think EA rated everyone lower this year.
It's also unfortunate to see Pryor at a 96 ovr, meaning a lot of people will still use OSU online even though that turd's no longer on the team.
People using OSU online with Pryor are the definition of the degredation (sp?) of this country.
Either they're OSU fans that should hate the guy, or they're spineless pussies who use Pryor for his speed / rating, while having a solid rest of the team to back him up.
Still no dreads for Denard. Oh well, its a two second fix, but him not having them online is kinda lame.
Broekhuizen 82? My ass. More like 22.
Also the online experience got ruined for me last year when they put in this new system thats slow as balls during online play. All I do now is dynasty mode and get all the trophies.
Well.. Seems like they were very kind to us from my point of view. Sure Martin could be a couple points higher, but nearly the rest of our defense was given extremely favorable ratings based on what they have actually accomplished. Offense looks about right... Rb's rated too high IMO and Odoms maybe a bit too low (if healthy).
Not bragging its just simply honesty that i had the best rosters on last seasons NCAA for PS3 .. give me a week and i will come thru again this year.
I think a lot of ppl will use Mich online this year. A QB that is that quick ... whew. Good luck sacking him or keeping him from scrambling for 1st downs every other play.
Oregon might actually be the team most people use online this year. I was playing them in the demo and the combo of Thomas and James is absolutely deadly, especially now that the shotgun running game has been fixed and is usable.
Here is a video of us playing OSU its 10 minutes long of CPU vs CPU for NCAA 12 figured you guys would like it.
Why is one of the Wistert brothers playing in this? (Number 11...)
Hoke is not looking good in that clip.
99 acceleration is too low for dilithium! All kidding aside I'm glad because that is truly where he belongs
