Was the problem that EA was making the player likenesses too close or that people were custom making rosters and players as they saw fit? I would think any dedicated football fan would make their custom rosters regardless of what the NCAA thinks, unless that feature was taken out.


EA was making players that were clearly their real life counterparts. I seem to remember they even ended up getting caught using real names as placeholders when they were creating players during programming. The NCAA didn't help with their piss poor arguments as to why this wasn't a likeness issue.


I hope it comes back though. I'm also one of those people that just can't get into NFL football games the way I can college.


Hopefully if a new game is ever made we can get back to having full control of the schedules, be able to create new and/or completely kill conferences, set up a playoff or bowl system the way you want, and a build a stadium feature for created teams.

Full control of scheduling is a must though. It drove me crazy that the last several games wouldn't even let you change if a conference game was home or away let alone change the dates or teams you were playing.

The year Ryan Perriloux was a freshman, I edited the lsu roster to have all the correct names. Nessler would say Perriloux everytime I dropped back to pass. Now I get Smith, Thompson, Williams. But how many Perrilouxs do you know outside of Louisiana?
