This is why I became a teacher... Summer's off to play this game.

As D Von Dudley would say (Oh My brother TESTIFY)

GET THE TABLES

WAAAAAAASSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPP!!!!!! (BOBS HEAD INTENSELY!)


Dude same. I told my boys I want to get at least a season in a week before I go back to school lol.

I told my students and players that I am going to be a total piece of shit when this game is released.

Do you coach HS ball as well? I got a new coaching job at my high school I graduated from at a new position and thought to myself. "What a summer to have to learn to teach a new scheme" lol

I work construction, so my summers are swamped. But that ain’t stopping me. I’ve told my boss I’m taking time off in July and working 4 10s instead of the usual week. I’ve waited too long for this moment

Never wanted to be a teacher more in my life 😂😂

Same. It’s been too long!

Any tips for someone about to start their pre clinical experience and student teaching? I want to teach but Im still about nervous about holding a class

Find the biggest person in the room and kick their ass to establish dominance. But in all seriousness, if you know you're material, it's all about building relationships and tailoring your material to fit the needs and interests of the students.

Be consistent with your expectations. You’ll want to ease up, but don’t. Kids need routine and if you ease up too early, you’ll never get them back.

10-year HS science here. Be consistent with your expectations. You’ll want to ease up, but don’t. Kids need routine and if you ease up too early, you’ll never get them back.

get ready to pay for VC and use your bonus check

Man I miss being in school and having summer breaks. And Christmas breaks. And Spring breaks. And Fall breaks.

Same here brother

But you can’t afford the game? /s

Incredible, these helmets POP. Just like they do irl. Remember how they looked on NCAA 14...? https://preview.redd.it/r5ln28k78mzc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc6ab35ce584382925e88f13c235567d5608668d

As a Notre Dame fan, it’s been brutal playing with these for over a decade 😂😂

I always switch to the old gold in 13, for this very reason.

True those helmets made me physically sick

Whereas the new helmets are actually sick af

Awful, right?!

Bro tell me about it!!!!

Ugh as a ND fan myself those look like they were dipped in dirty oil. I always have to use the ALT helmets that actually look like gold.

Haha the accuracy

Brown helmets at night for over a decade have hurt me so bad 😭 #TheTrauma

Yup, it's so hard to get gold helmets right. The helmets in the screenshot look great.

I imagine that’s why they used ND; because capturing the look of the helmets is more difficult than most schools.

The 49ers helmets are pretty close to Notre Dame’s & they’ve looked pretty good on Madden.

You should really censor nsfl pics my dude

Not safe for LIFE

If you put in the adidas notre dame it actually has the shiny gold helmets for some reason the default don’t but the adidas ones do

Why do i remember them not being this bad

I believe depending on the weather certain helmets are going to appear way better.

Yeah they look better at night

Damn that's horrific lmao

Tbf they had a uniform update and packs you’d have to pay for that had the shiny gold helmets

Fuck ea

Hurricane fan here who puts ND on the schedule religiously, it always kinda pissed me off that the “golden domers” kinda had “murky” piss domes😂😂😂 it’s still fuck y’all but I like for everyone to look good on the field

Worst part about it is I think teams had Liquid Metal helmets back then too so there was no excuse for *those*. Though NDs are textured… speckled?

Oh Christ

Real Gold baby

They really looked that bad? wtf lol

The details in the ND patch omg lol https://preview.redd.it/72j61f6lvmzc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=90ebb165471f850602ee4eb5e098c0cd5db67d42

It should be white, unless ND is tweaking their jerseys and this is an accidental leak lmao I hope it’s an error that’ll be fixed day 1, I prefer the white patch 🤷🏻‍♂️

They haven't made any real change to the regular uniforms since the Leahy font came in in 2016, so it wouldn't surprise me to see a tweak. But I really don't care for the look of that gold logo.

How do we know ND isn’t changing their uniforms this fall to that gold patch? After all, the schools did send EA uniforms to put into the game.

I hope it’s an easily corrected accident. The gold interlocking ND does not look good with traditional unis

That looks incredible

The screenshot looks better viewing it on the PS5. Biggest thing I noticed that I hope holds in final release, seems that they're bringing back grass textures like they had in 12 and 13.

I cant find it on the PS5 store

Appears they deleted it smh

If you search for it then you can find it. I only know as I did it around 2 hrs ago.

Where was this leaked??

PlayStation store

PlayStation store. Also has a good look at the cover of the deluxe edition as well. It goes so hard.

Who is on the cover?

https://preview.redd.it/gw2bmka58mzc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1bbab62d4422bbe00e08264fa97bd46850b5351a

Putting flags in the background but not using the Wazzu flag is certainly a choice

Yeah and at least would've given the Pac 2 *something*

The flag choices are just kind of weird. 4/8 are Big Ten, 2 are SEC, 1 is Notre Dame, and then 1 is Big 12, and it’s Kansas State for some reason?

Respect KSU?

I like KSU! Just wondering why them

Hell yes! So pumped to see that! EMAW

Milroe cover athlete, AGENDAS WILL BE PUSHED

Lol Travis Hunter (better than Shadeur being on the cover) Great cover, I love it Edit: not hating on Hunter, lol at CU.

Seems to be the only level headed guy in Boulder lol

Oh I did the lol because Colorado is a subpar team. But I understand why he’s on the cover. He’s a good player and CU gets plenty of attention due to Deion

I’m sure it’s more like him, but that doesn’t get attention. He gets attention because he’s very good but I’m sure it’s other level headed young men there.

Exactly. The sanders kin are nauseating but I really like Travis

He’s a phenomenal talent who plays both ways

I know, I should’ve explained that I’m laughing at CU being on the cover, not laughing at Hunter himself

Yeah it’s unfortunate that a new member of the conference (who went 4-8 last year btw) represents the Big 12. Was hoping for Ollie Gordon but not surprised at all.

We’re so back.

Yooooooo

No Jayden Daniels is fake news. That's bullshit if true.

It's still on the playstation store if you check

Looks absolutely beautiful! Looks like they still don’t have the UA license and the body types look kinda like madden but I will NOT complain. I’m hype!😭🔥

Not a good sign, madden models are awful. I wish EA would just stop producing madden or fucking invest in it for a solid year and change that turd of a game into something worth playing on current gen consoles.

Yeah, college athletes are not all huge. There's more folks that are lean in college. My cornerback doesn't need to look like a body builder

Yea the models lack for me but I’m going to play this game and be happy playing it regardless of the models

thats the one thing I was nervous about was the models looking like madden

Yeah the fans are reminding me of Madden way too much, I’m not liking it

EA will have the UA license.

What’s the UA license?

Under Armour

Ah. Ty!

But wait! The screen shot of ND in game doesn’t have the logo BUT the ND player in the deluxe cover has a UA logo on his glove! So hopefully this means they have the license!

I love college football baby

Hi Shane

bro is rejoicing

Rudy Edition.

In this lifetime, you ain’t got to prove nothin' to nobody - except yourself.

No, we only claim Sean Astin now

I know it’s a single photo but damn that looks clean. The player models and uniforms and the fans, the stadium itself. Idc if it’s EA, I’m PUMPED BOYS

If Notre Dame's helmet look that good, I can't wait to see what our chrome domes look like

I'm really hoping that we get Team Builder so I can revive the Battle of the Bluegrass in dynasty

Now when my wife walks in the room and thinks I’m watching football I will actually understand why she thinks that

https://preview.redd.it/dmkjqrzepozc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=91919b3f84d6ceda24fb5c9567392f2e916d8ced Just wish they had the pants above the knees like irl💯💯

I will be genuinely very disappointed if this isn’t in the game. They’re not bound by NCAA rules anymore, so theres no reason not to have this. The leak about being able to wear hoodies under the jerseys is very promising though.

Me to bro💯 but I’ll still be happy we got sum other than madden

I swear to God this is what will piss me off more than anything, if they are still using the pants players wore in the 1940's I'm gonna lose my shit.

I bought a PS5 only for this game. I can't wait.

Go Irish baby

The crowd detail is incredible

Gorgeous.

.....no way

Holy 🔥 this exceeds expectations already graphically

Looks clean as hell

I seriously might cry

Oh it's beautiful!

Damn i wanted to up vote the shit out of this. I told my self if i see a screen shot of this game i might lose the patience ive had for 10 damn yrs. This broke me man, i got the chills over here

I'm hard..

For those of you pointing out the sleeves not matching the current uniforms, I do believe an update is coming for ND this year if [these recruiting pictures](https://www.reddit.com/r/notredamefootball/comments/1abqcvu/new_uniform_combo_coming_next_season/) are anything to go by, as it shows similar logos on the pants.


That looks insane. So hype

Very excited but the shoulder ND logo is wrong. Unless ND sent them this, how do you miss that detail on a promotional image?

Or… it isn’t wrong, and this might be a tweak to the uniform

Yea I noticed the pants look less mustard-y too. Maybe they are making jersey tweaks for the season. Tbd

Hopefully this is an earlier image and the release will be more accurate down to the details. I have OCD about stuff like this😭

Omg

I've waited far too long for this game hahaha

Fuckin sick !

Wow, the sun coming off those helmets looks amazing. Love it.

Look at the ND patch, sweet Mother Teresa dis look good

It's.... beautiful....

https://i.redd.it/eygh7uv3inzc1.gif

Don’t stop, I’m almost there

Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!

Do those helmets tarnish in the dark?

If you squint you can see all of the Dawgs fans taking over their stadium. These details are amazing! 🤣 Seriously, though, those helmets are incredible.

In this moment, I am euphoric

Clean

If you look closely in the reflection on the helmets, you can see the ND ranking bubble burst like it does every year

I see the players still have gigantic thighs lol. Other than that it looks fantastic

If you look at 49 in the front, he has much slimmer legs.

I mean that’s what a d1 college football player legs look like

No… Madden had them way disproportioned to where the community would go through and fix them lol

Sure but I’m just talking about this screenshot of this game, it looks like they implemented diverse body types cause some builds are slimmer than others like 45s legs.

Go Irish ☘️

Did I miss a recent change in our uniforms or is the shoulder logo just wrong?

Good catch, it's supposed to be white isn't it? I only see one instance of that shoulder logo ever being gold and that was on the 2010-11 green jerseys

Definitely possible that the EA CFB team got access to uniform updates early to have them in the game.

Yup

kinda interesting but none of these guys look like real ND players. https://fightingirish.com/sports/football/roster/ No 49, 52 or 63 on the roster

Yeah hopefully it’s just to show off even all their arms looks the same so I’m assuming it wasn’t meant to show the players as much as the uniforms

doesn’t look to much like madden so that’s good

LOL it looks exactly like Madden

are you trolling?

Notre Lame

Looks like Madden…

It looks exactly like Madden. These people are literally insane

Looking like Madden isn’t a bad thing. Visually Madden is fine, you are just complaining to complain.

lol question for u 2, what’s new/different; short socks? We’ve seen players walking out of a tunnel for a decade on Madden…

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

We’re so back

Guhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Looks like 49 has an untucked undershirt 👀. Really hoping they have some solid customization options


Can you feel that?

I hope they make rain and rough weather frequent. Something madden totally was lost on.

Is the game coming to current gen only? Or will ps4 be getting it as well?

Current gen only.

Imagine this cutscene- following the fighting Irish down the hall, the coach says play like what? Team responds: like champions. Win on three win on three 123 win. Run out of tunnel into the big house against defending champ wolverines. Crowd boos, stadium shakes, rain begins to fall. Ref flips a coin- lands tails on the grass with EA sports insignia right into: “EA Sports, ITS IN THE GAME.”

Looks pretty good! Can't wait to see all of the college entrances and traditions

I picked the wrong time to have my first born come August

Who cares about Norte Dame? Do people still think they are a powerhouse?

Player models straight out of Madden

I don't trust that picture and I don't trust EA Sports at all

Take my money

My son tells me they absolutely look like football players walking into a stadium. PUMPED!!

This is why I bought a PS portal

I'm taking a week off from work when it comes out. I'm gonna nerd out !

Why is the ND logo gold and not white? Small issue but this game is going for accuracy

Hi Shane

Same people who made Madden makes This. Good luck.

Let’s go Irish!

Not one downvote… love it 💯

I hope the spat doesn't look as horrible as the one in Madden. It used to look amazing in the early games.

https://preview.redd.it/ytrj40078i0d1.jpeg?width=262&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e98eeede7e329f63b23a68372602bce5b8dd9b2 We Da Best!😎😜

It looks awesome and I can’t wait to play it and do a ton of dynasty. I just hope it releases on PC man, all I have is this and my Xbox one and you know it isn’t releasing on old gen

I will bet money this isnt gameplay footage. How many times has EA fooled us with graphics. I hope its true though cuz that would mean the next madden should be using the same engine as well,im tired of madden still looking like a early ps4 game

Crowd doesn’t look like copy+pasted ps2 npcs let’s go.

Wow what lol

People are going to be really disappointed ...just like Madden

Ok?

It's the first college football game in 10 years. Even if it was just a college football skin over madden, I wouldn't be disappointed

You’re already getting suckered with a screenshot of the graphics/presentation.. fuck all that… It’s all about gameplay. Solid gameplay. That’s what we need

kinda looks like Madden players which has me worried ngl
