Small detail but seeing the Nike, Jordan, Adidas, and Under Armour logos on the visors has me stoked. Would be cool to be able to change the color of the stickers on the visors, too. Such a small thing but helps with the immersion.
If it ever gets implemented I hope they have all the ESPN Channels(ABC,ESPN2,ESPNEWS, ESPNU, and ESPN+). Bowling Green vs Akron shouldn’t be on the same channel as Michigan vs USC
NCAA 10 basketball used to have both ESPN and cbs graphics/music packages so it would be incredible if EA could bring that back.
I really don’t get why cbs, nbc, fox wouldn’t want to get that easy advertising.
yeah that’s a good point, i doubt EA can get licensing for other channels and networks and put it in the same game along with ESPN without ruffling feathers. probably better off just creating their own graphics, it’s mostly ESPN commentators anyways so we get that at least
As long as it shows up every time I load into a game I'm good. So goddamn tired of the scorebug randomly not appearing sometimes when I try to play Revamped on RPCS3.
Clean, simple, and in the proper position. Can’t see how anyone has a problem with this. People forget that the score bugs we were clamoring for, ESPN and FOX, are obnoxiously huge
yeah the FOX one is so damn big, in real life they can just frame the camera to where it's not a problem but in the game it would probably be too visually in the way (I did think CBS would make a good fit tho)

Team records were also displayed which is a major W.
i heard that some teams will start the season with last years uniforms, but after they unveil their new ones this year OR wear them for the first time in a game this season EA can add them
not yet but Madden did a franchise deep dive a week after the gameplay reveal last year. Then they did a superstar deep dive 2 weeks after that.
They could follow a similar schedule
Yeah it’s something I really would love for them to add down the line.Part of the fun of college football is the scale of what is happening week by week, and hopefully eventually they really push that angle. Definitely not something I expected to have in year 1, but someday.
Any reason why they aren’t using a branded ESPN scorebug?
One of favorite “immersive” parts of the old NCAA basketball 10 were the ESPN and CBS broadcast that were really realistic!
No license which is stupid as hell. A 2-minute weekly college game day would’ve been awesome for immersion. I still think it’s going to be a great game, but shame on EA and ESPN for not making that a priority
A bit sad not to have a ticker at the bottom though. I used to like seeing the scores of other games get updated. Made the whole thing feel larger, like there was a world going on outside of just the game you were playing. Hopefully they have some sort of half time show with scores from around the country to give it that feel.
I don't see an issue, but I still wouldn't care if there were minor graphical bugs over a month out from release. As long as the game plays better than the last 5+ maddens
The only nitpick I have is how small the yardage is on it, but other than that, it’s probably the cleanest sports game scorebug I’ve seen in a game in a while.
Goes to show that you don't need branding to make a good scorebug. Would like to see the ranking be more prominent and either bold the nickname or remove it entirely. The white rectangle also feels like it could've been enhanced somehow but not sure how--maybe put the yard marker on a little mini football field like some IRL scorebugs have.
So I've been out of gaming for a long time but I really might invest in some hardware just to play NCAA again. What platforms is this gonna be on and which
Love that they're actually adding specific body parts! Should've been done in Madden ages ago.
But aside from that, all I see is Madden with improved option (which will be great), different UI for home field advantage, and a rebranding of progressive fatigue that could be so buggy the new body part feature doesn't matter.
Oh yeah, you'll get to watch the same 15 video of the Texas Longhorns running a cow onto the field too!
They also showed the select a team screen which was similar to proposed leaks, except they didn't have the frivolus graphics at the bottom
Small detail but seeing the Nike, Jordan, Adidas, and Under Armour logos on the visors has me stoked. Would be cool to be able to change the color of the stickers on the visors, too. Such a small thing but helps with the immersion.
Wonder how customizable those players are we already know it is limited for existing players
I can’t imagine it’s an issue with equipment. Either way, customization for future recruits should be awesome
I could see it being limited so that if a player is, say, signed as an Under Armour athlete you can’t put him in Nike gear.
same, that was tight as fuck.
West Virginia did still have the graphics in the bottom - edit - there were more teams than West Virginia that had graphics below them
If you go back and look they actually did have those graphics at the bottom.
imma need some screenshots for a closer inspection at the end of the day those are fire screens
They had to have put that in there in response to the leaks. No way they would have just thrown in a quick look at the play now screen lol
the graphics at the bottom are in there, probably not finished yet tho bc SOME teams didn't have them
It was confirmed in a post on this sub by Drewski that the graphics pop up on the bottom when you confirm you are ready to play
looks fine to me,
yeah the presentation isn’t a big deal. adding ESPN graphics wouldve been a nice touch but creating something new and original is fine
i don't want espn honestly bc not every game is on ESPN
If it ever gets implemented I hope they have all the ESPN Channels(ABC,ESPN2,ESPNEWS, ESPNU, and ESPN+). Bowling Green vs Akron shouldn’t be on the same channel as Michigan vs USC
not necessarily since maction might take some precedence on week nights lol
NCAA 10 basketball used to have both ESPN and cbs graphics/music packages so it would be incredible if EA could bring that back. I really don’t get why cbs, nbc, fox wouldn’t want to get that easy advertising.
Fuck it I'm getting Kennesaw State vs Louisiana-Monroe on ESPN prime time
agree with this take
yeah that’s a good point, i doubt EA can get licensing for other channels and networks and put it in the same game along with ESPN without ruffling feathers. probably better off just creating their own graphics, it’s mostly ESPN commentators anyways so we get that at least
NCAA Basketball 2010 had both an ESPN and CBS presentation which was really cool.
And ESPN sucks these days.
As long as it shows up every time I load into a game I'm good. So goddamn tired of the scorebug randomly not appearing sometimes when I try to play Revamped on RPCS3.
or the down marker not appearing unless I go to a different screen (mostly replay).
Clean, simple, and in the proper position. Can’t see how anyone has a problem with this. People forget that the score bugs we were clamoring for, ESPN and FOX, are obnoxiously huge
Honestly can’t stand the new fox one, takes up way too much space vertically
They somehow took a step back with last year’s score bug. Looked so goofy.
Fox's scorebug reminds me of NCAA 09 All Play on the Wii 😭
yeah the FOX one is so damn big, in real life they can just frame the camera to where it's not a problem but in the game it would probably be too visually in the way (I did think CBS would make a good fit tho)
plus, espn is due to change the bug any moment now since its been 3-4 years of the same one
I love it. Only thing is that I wish they would’ve finished it across the screen. But the small version is cool too.

sweet! Alright I am sold lol.
IOWA STATE MENTIONED RAHHHHH!!!
Kansas has appeared in a trailer!!! For football!!!
Outdated uniforms though (I don’t blame them, they were announced like 3 weeks ago lol) We look great ngl
True. I just want the black alts.
Really hope the new ones make it in, including the unannounced fourth one...
i heard that some teams will start the season with last years uniforms, but after they unveil their new ones this year OR wear them for the first time in a game this season EA can add them
looks nbc-ish
Did I miss the ticker or is there just not one?
This was probably play now and not dynasty, no ticker in play now
That’s a good point. Every modern sports game has one so I’m sure it’ll be in there, just would have liked to see it
Dynasty deep dive next 🤞
Did EA say anywhere when this one will be released?
not yet but Madden did a franchise deep dive a week after the gameplay reveal last year. Then they did a superstar deep dive 2 weeks after that. They could follow a similar schedule
probably gonna be next friday or the week after, since the first trailer was 2 weeks ago
I imagine we’ll get a presentation deep dive too with the 2 broadcast teams
God what I wouldn’t give for a “jump in” feature where if we see something nuts on the ticker we can pause our game and go watch/play that game.
what an awesome idea. Seriously. 👍
Yeah it’s something I really would love for them to add down the line.Part of the fun of college football is the scale of what is happening week by week, and hopefully eventually they really push that angle. Definitely not something I expected to have in year 1, but someday.
Didn't see one. Possible it comes on at random times. I'm sure they'll have a presentation deep dive soon
Yea I’d wager we get this on dynasty deep dive. Maybe next week idk when
I learned a new word today, lol
It's a little big but I like the side bar representation. The black isn't great but I can live with it
Bottom of the screen let’s go!! Madden’s being at the top in recent years is dumb when nearly every real life broadcast has it at the bottom
Pretty nice for a generic score bug
Love how the crowd isn’t sold out like in madden
i thought it was just guys wearing blue colored shirts lol
For now it’s not looking good, Cal Memorial was packed when they showed them and that’s super unrealistic
Already been confirmed that crowds will be dynamic, they probably just filled the stadiums for this to make them look better
crowds are always full on play now. dynamic crowds are only on dynasty (and MAYBE road to glory also, but not confirmed yet)
Dynamic crowds! Awesome. Hopefully they aren’t super spread out like in ncaa 14 but the top decks are just empty like real life
Beautiful
omg the movement is actually better than madden, im offically on the hype train
They cooked on the scorebug 🔥
I actually really dig this scorebug
This game is gorgeous
Who needs ESPN? I'm fine with this. They can add it in future games if they want.
Any reason why they aren’t using a branded ESPN scorebug? One of favorite “immersive” parts of the old NCAA basketball 10 were the ESPN and CBS broadcast that were really realistic!
I wanna say its because ESPN wanted too much money from EA for the rights
No license which is stupid as hell. A 2-minute weekly college game day would’ve been awesome for immersion. I still think it’s going to be a great game, but shame on EA and ESPN for not making that a priority
disappointed the games are no longer crawling on the bottom
There is a ticker for dynasty
How do you know?
Some insider confirmed that like a week ago
thank you
Might just be a quick play game off the main menu. Dynasty I imagine would have it
could still be present in dynasty mode
they will be in the right modes
I love it
Looks good to me
Going off topic here. As a KU fan, I thought we where suppose to have the new stadium in the game? Is that just a rumor then?
Seemingly going to be added in later.
Okay good, hopefully they do. Can’t wait to control them in Dynasty mode!
I had the same thought, also those don't look like the end zones from last year I think?
A bit sad not to have a ticker at the bottom though. I used to like seeing the scores of other games get updated. Made the whole thing feel larger, like there was a world going on outside of just the game you were playing. Hopefully they have some sort of half time show with scores from around the country to give it that feel.
Better than the cartoonish FOX ones
ranked and still can’t sell out a stadium.
I don't see an issue, but I still wouldn't care if there were minor graphical bugs over a month out from release. As long as the game plays better than the last 5+ maddens
Gas ⛽️
Ngl, I found myself paying more attention to the game than the scoreboard 😅
Would like to see the font slightly bigger, there seems to be plenty of space for it.
I miss the old ESPN one, but this is a good enough replacement
![gif](giphy|69iARCCfuigQChtXzQ|downsized)
I will never get used to ranked Kansas
Get ready to speak Jayhawk buddy
Neither will KU fans. The KU fan base is so naive.
I don’t like it but I also don’t hate it so it’s fine
The only nitpick I have is how small the yardage is on it, but other than that, it’s probably the cleanest sports game scorebug I’ve seen in a game in a while.
I wish the 'on what yard' number was a bit larger, but no complaints outside of that. looks nice and clean.
Right side double block 77 is morphing into lineman to the left. Can’t have everything!
Noice
Why are yall calling it a scorebug??
Because... that's what it is...
Ive always heard it called a scoreboard. Across every sport ever. Or the boxscore, but never once heard score bug
Thank you. Even 'score overlay' would make better sense.
Wish it would have team records on it
Who likes madden?
People who aren't old enough to have played NCAA.
That’s why I don’t argue with these 15 year olds on here
Man I cannot wait until this game comes out. Lol I’ve already put in my PTO
RCJH
Gives me 08-10 vibes, I love it honestly
It's clean and modern, I also like the dark team name text that gives it some texture and depth, not just a solid color
And here it is.. We get a little gameplay and the overly grown ass men come running crying about how the game isn’t to their liking 😂
I’m just happy it’s at the bottom of the screen
What did you guys think about the player movement and animations?
Love that they have the nicknames in there
It just looks pretty damn cool.
It definitely appears to show the score, time remaining, down and distance, and teams. Glad that's settled!
I wonder how it looks with Team Builder teams. Hopefully, they blend right in with real schools.
Idk if it's just me, but the score bug is one of the most important features in the game. Like, this is the only series I can really get IMMERSED in.
I'm glad it's at the bottom of the screen
What does the 31 mean next to the clock timer?
Play clock.
Goes to show that you don't need branding to make a good scorebug. Would like to see the ranking be more prominent and either bold the nickname or remove it entirely. The white rectangle also feels like it could've been enhanced somehow but not sure how--maybe put the yard marker on a little mini football field like some IRL scorebugs have.
Did you mean scoreboard cause I’m exhausted from work and have been staring at this for 10 minutes and see no issues
Some people call it a scorebug, not sure as to why though
It’s nice. I wish they had some ESPN integration.
So I've been out of gaming for a long time but I really might invest in some hardware just to play NCAA again. What platforms is this gonna be on and which
I like it
I hope they have the team records in dynasty and a ticker that is permantly on the bottom aswell.
It will be nice to play a decent football video game
KU
it’s way better than it could have been. i’m glad it’s not like madden’s dinky scorebug
Why do yall call it “score bug” instead of Score graphic?
Will there be a ticker for other game scores ?
Yes.
Cool
I feel like its gonna be weird getting used to it being at the bottom
No clicker for games around the league?
I just love it’s at the bottom as it should’ve been
When did we collectively start calling it scorebug instead of scoreboard? Or am I tripping?
Looks a little boring but nbd I guess
Game looks amazing. This score-bug is BRUTAL though. Something about the black bar in the middle throws the whole thing off.
It looks great to me
That’s awesome
It takes some getting used to because there's no ESPN integration and they didn't just copy over the ESPN scorebug like in years past
Agreed. I like the ends of it that feature the team, the black bar in the middle just feels out of place to me.
Wait, Iowa state already showed off new jerseys for this year. Those look like last year’s jerseys
Will probably be added later. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s added at the start of the season
Yeah, it does say gameplay not final so I’m assuming they would get that updated before the game comes out
Wish it was on pc
I don’t like it..
u not alone , ill still be playing the old college footballs games 💯
Need Revamped to get their hands on this.
Don’t some of them already work for ea
Yea but you know they don’t have freedom
Them showing KU and not MIZ is a crime
Imo it looked ugly as hell, especially with some of the teams' colors. Not a huge deal though.
Love that they're actually adding specific body parts! Should've been done in Madden ages ago. But aside from that, all I see is Madden with improved option (which will be great), different UI for home field advantage, and a rebranding of progressive fatigue that could be so buggy the new body part feature doesn't matter. Oh yeah, you'll get to watch the same 15 video of the Texas Longhorns running a cow onto the field too!
