NCAA Football 14 Cover Vote Update - Notre Dame and Oregon Lead the Way in Round 1

[XxJustAguessxX]

Yeah the fight is fixed, none of this voting stuff really counts, ND will win and Manti Teo will get the cover, he was Heisman finalist, had an incredible year and is a senior. The actual Heisman winner will not make the cover. Kenjon Barner will not be the cover athlete when half the country only knows about De'Anthony Thomas. EA tries once again to make us feel like we are apart of the gaming process. That's pure lies, how long have people been complaining about dreads and now their finally in.

And they're not going to put a player on the cover who'll still be playing in college next season. They always wind up putting a player who'll be playing at the next level, due to marketing and NCAA eligibility factors.

Almost as bad as ESPN's Contest that they ran a few months ago that gave a scholarship or something to a school. Penn State was winning and then out of no where, every team in the Top 5 dropped out of the Top 15 after apparently losing votes.

But like i said, putting a PSU player on the cover even if they were in the lead would never happen seeing EA's past. But i guess well see.

How would it be marketing suicide? Those players had nothing to do with Sandusky. I would not have an issue with a Penn State player on the cover. It won't happen because even though they had a good season, no bowl, no real marquee players so putting a PSU player on wouldn't be the beneficial. EA is trying to act like the consumer makes a difference but we don't, just buy our game no matter what.

Heck with putting any players on the cover,........Change the NAME of the Game all together!!!!!!!!!!! NCAA & MADDEN.....NCAA 14 & MADDEN 14 is so OLD,. It makes me NOT want to even buy another year of the games, & i have bought both of them from back in the day,.. PLEASE EA think bout a NAME change..MADDEN is gone so should the Name...
Hate me or not,. But im really SICK of it,. Look!!!! what just a name change did for 2K Sports and thats all they did was a name change....

Even though those players had nothing to do with it, the average American sees Penn State in a very clouded state now. During the trial, many of my co-workers felt Penn State should have lost their football program all together and blamed the University as well as Sandusky.

We may know better, but the average buyer likely doesn't.
