I checked out the video and they show a tOSU running back blowing up and avoiding a UM tackler. That is the only UM clip. While the game looks cool, the clip is not!

Good to see UM represented, but as mentioned earlier it was kind of a downer to see repeated shots of Warren slipping as the OSU WR(?) ran past him. But unfortunately, EA preaches realism, and that was an image we saw way too much last year. Hopefully 2012 features repeated videos of the OSU QB clutching his ankle and sides as the video facsimiles of Martin and Campbell dance and celebrate near his broken and battered body. You know, because it is realistic.

you know why they had all that Michigan stuff on the site? B/C they know the Michigan Fan base is large enough to single handedly but the company back in the Black for the year. Simple arithmetic, Keep UofM fans happy keep profits up.

It seems like they always get player vs. player relative speeds right, but not the actual speed of the game. It'll be interesting to see if all of this new stuff affects the flow of the game speedwise (my friend brought up recent Maddens as an example of possible effects, FWIW).

Donovan Warren got his ankles broken by an OSU WR in that video. EA doesn't approve of his decision to go pro.

When the momentum would flip and the two helmets would start punching each other like fists (I think '07). I think I gave myself bloody knuckles reenacting it for my friends.

I miss the old PS2 days with the home field adv. The stadium would shake and all that good stuff. I really wish 2k could get their hands on NCAA licence.

get this game every year. I go through a cycle where I pop it in, hate it right off the bat because of how they change player movement, take a week to get used to the changes, and then end up loving it all over again. It's weird how that happens like groundhog's day... In the last version, the one thing I really dislike is that DE's can chase down 90 speed quarterbacks from behind. Even 285lb defensive lineman can get you. I guess they want to stop the player from just running out of the pocket with the QB all the time, but with Denard out there it's always tempting to take off.

The game always has flaws, but for me around in July I'm so ready for football and EA is the only one that makes NCAA football games so I just get it anyway.
