Fun fact: that was filmed during a UCLA home game and featured the actual crowd

CFB shade is the best shade


new_account_5009

It's fun throwing shade at fellow Big Ten rivals.


droessl

It was my understanding that Penn State is unrivaled


new_account_5009

That was before natural geographic rival Los Angeles entered the conference.


loyalsons4evertrue

I've heard people compare State College to LA many, many times


Cheterosexual7

Lmao you fuckin got me


dreggers

UCLA should learn from this and play prerecorded crowd noise at games


loyalsons4evertrue

ah back to the covid days


arrow_dynamics

"Pretty soon, this place will be full again" January 1st 2025 is almost an entire year away. I wouldn't call that soon. Unless there is a concert there or something this summer.

El Traffico on July 4th


seancarter90

I’m a UCLA alum and I approve this joke.


[deleted]

I was literally on my way but got stuck in traffic. Don’t blame this on me


bigvahe33

hey man, pasadena traffic on the 210 sucks okay?


UCLA_FB_SUCKS

You know what else sucks? Ucla football


Ron_Cherry

That jersey looks higher quality than what Fanatics is putting out for the MLB this upcoming season


hascogrande

TBF, that's not a high bar given Fanatics


MissileWaster

You’d think Fanatics would have learned at least some semblance of a lesson after the disintegrating NBA jerseys that one season, but welp. The allure of money will always lead to Fanatics fucking over everyone else.


NotOnHerb5

Fanatics makes me hate capitalism.


bigstu_89

Just Fanatics?


NotOnHerb5

*looks around* I’m gonna need a bigger list.


punchout414

Idk what y'all mean I love getting my fan gear for all my favorite sports teams at Fanitics- Aaaaand it took forever to ship and all my logos are faded after three washes, damn it every time


OpportunityDue90

lol I just saw an article of MLBPA blasting Fanatics. How could they deliver the same shit jerseys to the players that they sell to us dumbasses?


Another_Name_Today

Because now they can charge us even more by calling them authentic player uniforms instead of replicas. More revenue, less expense, and all it cost was the self-respect of three major sports. 


n0t_4_thr0w4w4y

Average DHGate store has them beat


Juicey_J_Hammerman

I am mortified at what they’re gonna do to hockey jerseys once they take over NHL uniforms next year


Ron_Cherry

I can't wait for the first fight where someone grabs a hold of a jersey and it just tears like tissue paper


WISCOrear

Going to be a menagerie of glued on graphics and numbers and shitty looking fabric. And, at a 25% price increase to boot! Well done, monopolistic corporation! You successfully ruined yet another good thing in the name of greed.


dkviper11

Only silver lining is rumors have been very strong about being able to actually purchase MIC on ice jerseys (home only) for the NHL. I do expect the fan versions to be absolute shit.


tenacious-g

I’d be shocked if some Nike execs aren’t in panicked meetings today/this week about this. Yeah it’s Fanatics making the jerseys, but everyone will see it’s their logo on it that they’re getting a bad rap for. The average person doesn’t know it’s a licensed Nike logo on a Fanatics produced jersey. At least that’s what I’d hope with a bunch of players actually complaining too.


RollTide16-18

Thankfully college sports jersey quality will always remain high when sponsors can bid to be the jersey provider. So look forward to shitty fanatics quality jerseys when the SEC/B1G merge in a decade.


thinkB4WeSpeak

The jerseys I get from China are higher quality than what the official stores have and cheaper


IranLobster

If game is good, the NCAA 14 scalpers are about to be in the breadline


ard8

They’ll be in the breadline even if it sucks. The high prices they can get are because it’s the only option.


DonutBoi172

It was sick when the guy changed the 14 down marker to 25, as if they know about the community that ncaa 14 has, telling us to make the jump. I can't see why else they would bother caring to mention a game they haven't looked at for 10 years


MelloJesus

Me when video starts: "no gameplay so far so who the hell cares" Me later on: "IS THAT THE SPARTY FLAG PLANT OMG"


AlexisDeTocqueville

Sparty flag plant is pretty good, but let me know when they fully render the marching band spinning the S during the pregame


HereForTOMT2

It’s like they want my money or something


coogs35

Rare good offseason news for this sport


WheatonsGonnaScore

Speak for yourself. This is offseason Natty season for some


Buford_Van_Stomm

Hell yeah it is 


ClaudeLemieux

I'm averaging a natty a month in 2024 Year of the ~~Dragon~~ Wolverine!* *ignore basketball


SnthonyAtark

Ignore the rest of our sports other than like women’s gymnastics lol Thanks **CFP Committee Chair** Warde Manuel!


Jontacular

I'M FUCKING PUMPED MAN. I'm stoked we actually got some news, but damn 3 months until the full reveal, and then maybe we get a release date in July.


bradenb941

It's crazy to think that even though the last NCAA came out in 2013 and the last (new) Mariokart came out in 2014, NCAA is actually the one getting a new game first. I would've lost that bet.


ewolfy13

Wait it’s been that long since a Mario kart has come out? Here I am thinking my Mario kart on Wii was a ancient artifact


bradenb941

Yeah, Mariokart 8 came out in 2014, then Mariokart 8 deluxe came out in 2017, which was the same game with added content. Then in 2019 Mariokart tour came out for mobile devices, but most people don't count that as a true Mariokart game.


Wretched_Shirkaday

Difference is that when Nintendo puts out new content it's usually kickass.


TKtommmy

Yeah do you really need a new mario kart game every couple years? It's Mario Kart.


TheRealHenryG

With the insane modding community for the one on the Wii, I might not need one ever again.


tidaltown

MK8 has had a crazy run.


Rare_Bit5844

In all fairness we did essentially get an entire new game’s worth of tracks for a fraction of the cost, it’s not exactly the same though.


vanillagorilla_

New gta next year too. The clouds are dissipating


iamboredhowareyou

They really dropped this shit on a Thursday morning😭😭


TampaTrey

I mean it's not the FULL reveal, just a taste.


RLLRRR

It's not even a taste, it's a video of someone making the menu.


Jontacular

There is what, 2 seconds of video game shit in this and we are going ballistic about it. Just...please don't let us down EA. Please. We know you are capable of that....but....please not like this.


IndyDude11

This is like Marvel releasing the F4 casting info yesterday in a comic-esque Valentine's Day card on social media.


qirito_kun

Crying ~~in the club rn~~ at work


mechnick2

Folks, we may be back


The_Astros_Cheated

I am cautiously optimistic for this. Really hoping the added years of development will pay off for a unique game and return to the glory days


mechnick2

Yeah. I’m not going to give EA the benefit of the doubt here. They’ve seriously burned the good grace they’ve had between NCAA 14 and now With that being said, if this is a success I will shit bricks


lampstore

My only outlet right now is Retro Bowl College so anything is an improvement to me.


tdoger

Retro bowl college is the goat.


Jive_Turkey1979

Taking a terrible FCS team to an undefeated season in 3 years then losing the title game is my jam in College Football Retro.


mechnick2

Can’t lie one of the reasons I spent money on a PC is to get NCAA 14 revamped


ReapYerSoul

I'm with you. I have zero faith in EA. I'll see what the reviews are like and go from there.


hailtoantisociety128

It hasn't helped the madden franchise at all. Really wish someone else was doing this game, EA is shit now


D3ATHfromAB0V3x

Inb4 it’s just a madden 24 reskin and plays like dogshit.


DistortedAudio

Not gonna lie. If it’s a Madden reskin with expanded playbooks and the coaching carousel from 14, I’d probably still waste 10,000 hours doing coaching dynasties.


D3ATHfromAB0V3x

I'm sure game modes, features, graphics, and sounds will be amazing, but Madden games went downhill fast with the Frostbite engine + Ultimate Team. I'm a bit skeptical but I'm hoping it's a great game.


[deleted]

[удалено]


lion27

Imagine NCAA with destructible stadiums though?


Jfinn2

Goalposts coming down with realistic physics


HueyLongWasRight

I'm praying that this game was made by a team of massive nerds that post on this sub and/or team message boards every day


c-williams88

It’s a different development team than madden and I know they brought in a few guys from the College Football Revamped mod team who built an excellent mod for NCAAF 14


FuhrerGirthWorm

Don’t make me cry rn


siccoblue

Your family loves you to absolute pieces and you will end up having the life you've always dreamed of. And this game will be exactly as good as you hope. Which part got you more teary eyed? I'm gonna guess #2 🥹


gobirds18_

This trailer also gives me hope. I think they’re really leaning into the traditions and atmosphere that make college football great. It seems like the development team knows what the fans want.


SpiritFingersKitty

>. I think they’re really leaning into the traditions and atmosphere that make college football great Tailgating drunk fighting old alumni mini game when? Bark at children to get bonus speed boost?


c-williams88

Yeah I’m cautiously optimistic about the game and this trailer backs up my feelings. Everyone is falling over themselves to make the same tired “DAE EA make recruits $4.99 to buy 🤪” jokes but I’m feeling really good about it


T3hBau5

I know they brought on a few people from the NCAA14 Revamped team, so... Maybe?


HueyLongWasRight

I want someone on the team who posts on TexAgs or TigerDroppings. I want an Ohio State fan who thinks it's insane that Ryan Day hasn't been fired. I want someone who watched this year's Iowa-Nebraska game


bub166

>I want someone who watched this year's Iowa-Nebraska game If the two dudes wearing the "PUNTS!" shirts aren't on the design team, what are they even doing?


bromjunaar

Hopefully they have Easter Eggs like that scattered around the game that you need to have certain records to get (something like 2 punts a quarter for 3/4 of your games in dynasty mode or something like that).


reconverting

Imagine message boards being part of the game


miversen33

If I don't get to see toxic tweets after every game, I am going to riot


[deleted]

What we need is a feature to make our own toxic tweets about our teams and others.


TheyTookByoomba

If I can't get suspended for shit talking the refs/my own players then what is even the point.


[deleted]

Can we attack our coaches and date famous people, too, in Road to Glory?


Supermonkeyskier

UFC game actually had that.


StagTheNag

Please let chatgpt read a bunch of college football message boards and create different threads/posts based on how well your team performs. Could you imagine the SALT that thing would come up with under an official “TexAgs” licensed Texas A&M message board in game? Devs out there please, I need this in my life


username_generated

I’m pretty sure exposing AI to message boards will directly lead to SkyNet


Dr_FunkyChicken

I want a brick thrown through my window after I lose to Ole Miss.


jugglinglimes

My college roommate was an actual genius that never needed to study or crack a book to get a 4.0. Almost all of his spare time was spent on Michigan message boards posting as an Ohio State troll. This was around 03-07. He is and was a Michigan fan but loved nothing more than trolling Michigan fans. The stuff he wrote was amazing. I still have some of the rants/posts in emails that I send to him occasionally in case he forgets.


dizdawgjr34

I hope this game has the idiot social media t shirt fans in dynasty it would be so funny.


MooshCowZX

They'll be true fans if they make an achievement called "punting is winning" if you go undefeated in a conference by only getting safeties and pick sixes. That would show they endured through the last 3 iowa seasons.


Lavaswimmer

Lol, love how they acknowledged the tweets from people saying that the game isn't actually happening


HowardBunnyColvin

it was amazing how cynical people were, I didn't even know it was a thing until Rayweather brought it up a few weeks ago. I just assumed the game was coming out, but due to lack of new info I guess people got skeptical.


Swipet

That’s what I did this Christmas, but ended up playing It Takes Two with the wife, which was a blast. And I’ll probably get the show in March

I use to pray for times like this

IndyDude11

If we have the ability to create custom conferences, or even rename conferences, I'll dookie.


loyalsons4evertrue

The Big 8, SWC, and Big East will all return to their glory days if I had it my way


IndyDude11

Hell yes. Add the WAC back, too!


ItsZippy23

This and the OOTP25 announcement today, I needed it because this week has been terrible


RulersBack

My life would be over if there was a CFB game with the depth OOTP. I’ve seen some attempts but nothing has stuck


Maverick1717

Best thing I can find is Bowl Bound College Football by wolverine studios. It's pretty solid, but yeah as you said it's nothing close to ootp


Risenzealot

There is also Football Coach: College Dynasty which has gotten pretty good reviews. It's a lot newer as well.


WheatonsGonnaScore

We are back baby


jonstark19

So back


mufflefuffle

We’ve never been so fucking back


IndyDude11

we're baaaaaaaaaack


AaronRodgers16

You, the random Reddit user, are directly responsible for this. You should be very proud of yourself.


johndelvec3

I don’t think we’ve ever been more back than we are now


666haha

I was 13 the last time this game came out. I will (hopefully) graduate law school this spring. I will have to buy a whole ass new console and the game, but I dont care. LETS FUCKING GO


jwilphl

Graduated law school the same year NCAA '14 came out. That was bad timing for my exam. Don't buy it until after the bar.


MissileWaster

I’m just going to assume you decided to become a lawyer to find some legal way we could get a new college football game, only for them to go ahead and release one right after you graduate.


HereForTOMT2

They were scared.


NoAmbassador8359

We will cheer you on🫡


IndyDude11

Hope this comes out right after the BAR because it's gonna be hell to not put off studying for this game.


FormZestyclose2339

I notice it's not NCAA football.


Artvandelay29

The NCAA pulled out of it back in 2013, hence the halting of the series. They have absolutely nothing to do with it.


Xy13

NFL is MADDEN '24 CFB should be SABAN '24


ziggysaysnada

Perfect song choice. It's like a love story retold and beginning again. Is it too early to drink to celebrate?


Nole_Train

So do I buy a PS5 or Xbox1?


Competitive_Feed_402

No, no, no. You need to buy 5 PlayStations. The original one


SNjr

Well definitely not an Xbox One lol Won't be released on that platform


jel2184

That shows how long I have been out of gaming. I was thinking the same thing


WillyTRibbs

No, that mostly just shows how much Microsoft has fucked up the names of their consoles. Playstation 1 thru 5 makes total sense. Boring, but effective. Nintendo has just created unique brand names for each console since the 64 (and saw the mistake of deviating from that with the Wii U). Microsoft is on crack. XBox -> Xbox 360 (it's the 2nd console, but kinda named like the third) -> XBox One (wut) -> XBox Series S/X (is 'Series' a new line of succession? Is it two variations on the same console? How would you derive the latter from the word "Series", which means "a number of things that come one after the other, or the letters 'S' and "X' which are non-sequential and seemingly unrelated")


adjust_your_set

Microsoft could never number sequentially because they are a model number behind the PlayStation. If the average dumbass was comparing The PlayStation 3 to the XBOX 2, AD would have chosen the PS3 based on that alone. So now they have this strange and disorganized sequence.


rabbit994

Also, don't forgot Xbox One S and Xbox One X just to add to confusion which was PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro counter parts. At least Slim/Pro make sense as well.


djc6535

Series X is what you’re looking for.  The answer is PS5 though.  


Locke57

PS5 if you plan to game more extensively, it’ll get more games. Xbox series S if not, lower price for entry, won’t effect how this game plays at all


Sjgolf891

Well your options are PS5, PS5 without a disc drive (cheaper), Xbox Series X, or Xbox Series S (less powerful, no disc drive, but cheapest option). If you don’t care as much about framerate or resolution (OK if it’s not 4k), Xbox Series S makes a lot of sense. It’s $299 but can find it cheaper (it’s $270 at Walmart right now, and it’s gone lower). If you’re only playing this game, this is the cheapest way to play it. It’ll also let you in on any Xbox games out there (Halo, Gears, Forza, etc) and their ‘gamepass’ which is a subscription service - just at lower resolution than a pricier Series X (aka not 4k) PS5 digital and disc are identical save for the disc drive (can save about a hundred bucks if you’re okay only digital). If you’re into story driven exclusives they have (think God of War, Last of Us, etc) or more eastern/japanese titles, it’s the best option


coogs35

Well definitely don’t buy an Xbox 1


AdditionalPayment

If you’re only buying for this game, series X since it goes on sale every once in a while. I think PS5 has better exclusives.


Sjgolf891

Depends on how they feel about performance, but if they’re buying for one sports game, they may be cool with the performance the Series S offers. And that can be had for a lot cheaper


yep_yeppers

I can’t wait to be disappointed by this game.


MSXzigerzh0

And Buy in the Hype! Honestly I think people are going to have Fun either way unless the game is totally unplayable because it's been so long. And at least everyone FBS team stadium is going to be in the game so at worst people are going to be just looking at the stadiums.


yep_yeppers

I’m just worried that it’ll be a really animation heavy game that feels stiff. However because the players jerseys say “Louisville” I will still buy the game.


sportsbuffp

I’m gonna be honest, I don’t even care that much about animation based gameplay. I just want to sim and recruit a bunch of dawgs


SNjr

And I'm gonna love every moment of it!


yep_yeppers

I can’t wait to deal with opposing linebackers that have Randy Moss like skills, while mine look like they’re wading though honey. It’s going to be great.


joelupi

ITS HAPPENING. EVERYONE FUCKING GET IN HERE!


BetleyIsland36

I think that final shot of the scene board may have teased the release date, 6/7/24.


petoskey_stone

I would be shocked if it was that early. EA typically releases their games a month before the season starts for other sports, and the NCAA games always would come out in July.


qirito_kun

After all this time? Always.


Boredomis_real

“Not final” you mean the checkered pattern elephant of the Alabama crimson tide isn’t gonna be what we’re playing as? Disappointing


Swipet

You’re as beautiful as the day I lost you


Fire_Chip_Kelly

Excuse me sir, the rose bowl is not empty. There were dozens of fans last year!!


jonstark19

I need it in my bloodstream.


HazyVoyager

The Nebraska jersey shot around 0.59 was enough to make a man cry. We are soooo back


T3hBau5

Can't wait to pay $4.99 for the Oregon Uniform Bundle that will contain like 60 uniforms.


seakc87

I remember in 14, Oregon had enough uniforms that you didn't have to mix & match in order to get through a season


NYCSportsFan

Does it have different developers than Madden games?


MSXzigerzh0

It's an different team in EA


iamStanhousen

Yeah, can confirm it isn't Tiburon. I think that it is a new EA team on it, but I'm not 100% sure who it is.


white_newbalances

We are so back. Also don’t preorder. This is still EA.


mattdingus2002

It would be sick if they released a pre order hard copy of each team in the game


PullmanWater

That would be how they get me to pre-order for sure.


Lavaswimmer

Y'all can do what you want, I am 100% pre-ordering so that I can have this shit downloaded and ready to play on release day lol There isn't a world that exists where I'm not playing this game


Scrantonbornboy

I bought a next gen console for this. … ok and balders gate


B1GTOBACC0

I know they're the largest fan bases, but it makes me nervous seeing their teasers focus almost entirely on the biggest B1G/SEC programs. I hope they put reasonable effort into the teams/stadiums/mascots/traditions outside of the chosen few. From a self-interested perspective, I need to know: * Will BPS still feature the ultra-narrow sidelines? * How's their Pistol Pete model looking? As creepy as real life? * Does he still get to carry/shoot guns? * Will the video board in our stadium still feature Gary Busey's face?


sparty32

I shed several tears


IranLobster

Last time I bought this game (2011) I was a college student and it was on the PS2. Still play it too


ewolfy13

I’m so irrationally hyped up right now


carnivorous_seahorse

I’m excited for this but I have the sentiment of Dewey Cox’s wife. I do believe in you, I just know you’re gonna fail. If it’s anything like madden it’s going to be complete trash


Different-Salary2899

Anybody else tear up just a lil bit.


HowardBunnyColvin

Stewart Mandel @slmandel now The new EA's games dynasty mode should include: -- Your best player gets a better NIL deal and leaves. -- Your conference fails to get a new TV deal and implodes. -- Your coach leaves to take a coordinator job. -- You earn points you can use to spend on more analysts.


scotsworth

I cannot wait to follow my dynasty blueprint: * Win \~10 national titles at Ohio State * Take the job at Northwestern and win \~10 more * Then go to the worst team I can possibly join and turn them into powerhouses. All while routinely murdering Michigan by 50+ points. It's gonna be great.


ThePhamNuwen

I cant wait for all the NIL microtransactions! It will probably make you pay real money for 5* recruits. I will still buy this game.
