NCAA Football 12 Info Thread

I figured now that info was starting to come out, and since no one else has done it yet, that I would start a thread and update it with all known NCAA 12 info. I really just want this to be a collection of the NCAA 12 info and not a thread to complain(or praise) the features of the game. there will likely be individual threads for each blog, announcement, videos, ect... where that stuff can be done. Any broken links, typos, mistakes, etc.. that I've made, feel free to inform me about it in a post. Also any info that I've missed, let me know and give me a link to that info(to use as a source). Red Dates indicates when I added info. Blog entries and media link have black bold dates still.

  • You can play as a head coach(like normally), or as a Offensive or Defensive Coordinator and work your way up to becoming a head coach.
  • If you want to play dynasty mode like in the past, you can turn off the coaching contracts and not have to worry about the coaching carousel.

Custom Conference *updated on 5/26
  • each conference can have as little as 4 teams to as many as 16 teams, Independents can have as few as 1 team to as many as 32
  • Night Games in November – in an attempt to get every possible detail of a conference correct we added this setting. The Big Ten is currently the only school that abides by this rule, but if night games in snowy conditions are your thing go ahead and turn this off…the player's won't mind.
  • Weekday Games – some conferences only play on Saturday, while others seem to take the field any time someone says they will show up with a TV camera.
  • Start Conference Games – Are you a fan of getting the non-conference games out of the way at the start of the season? Make sure you set this so that the conference games start later in the season.
  • Location for Championship Game – once you have 12 or more schools you will determine your conference champion with a championship game. Here you will be able to set where that game is played. You can select any stadium in the game, any bowl game, any school's home stadium, even the high school stadium and practice fields. If you aren't into the neutral site thing, go ahead and set it so that the school with the best conference record hosts the game (like the PAC-12 and Conference USA do).
  • Division Names – When you go from 11 to 12 schools the default names are Div A and Div B. It's up to you to change that to whatever you want. You can also edit existing division names too if that's your thing.you can edit the Division names
  • Protected Rivalries – here you can set up each protected rival matchup. (teams that play another team from opposite division every year)
  • you can edit the BCS Bowl tie-ins(so you can make the Rose Bowl Big XII vs. Big East if you wanted to, etc..)
  • Changes can be made at the end of every season(not sure if all options are editable at this point)
  • Can not create/delete conferences or make play-off options *5/23
  • Still a maximum of 120 teams in dynasty mode(not counting the generic FCS teams) *5/23
  • As Head Coach, Recruiting can be effected by Coach Loyalty and Coach Prestige. Coach Loyalty will be impacted by how long a Coach is at a particular school, if they have met their goals and if they have signed any contract extensions *5/24
  • Can not add any additional teams(120 total teams), however, you still can replace teams with a Teambuilder team(max of 12). *5/26
  • A conference with 12 or more teams will automatically have 2 divisions and a conference championship game. 11 or fewer teams will remove the Champ game and divisions. *5/26
Breakdown of conference games + Protected Rivals used in Custom Conference added on *5/26
  • 4-8 schools – 7 conference games. There are no protected rivals since everyone plays everyone else. For conferences of 4-6 schools FCS opponents will play the part of your additional conference games
  • 9 schools – 8 conference games. There are no protected rivals since everyone plays everyone else.
  • 10 schools – 9 conference games. There are no protected rivals since everyone plays everyone else.
  • 11 schools – 8 conference games with a rotation of other conference members.
  • 12 schools – 8 conference games when using protected rivals. 9 conference games when not using protected rivals. (Note: C-USA will use their 8 conference game, no protected rival format by default)
  • 13 schools – 8 conference games. Protected Rivals are not available in conferences with odd numbered schools.
  • 14 schools - 8 conference games when using protected rivals. 9 conference games when not using protected rivals.
  • 15 schools – 10 conference games. Depending on the rotation you will have 6-7 division games in a year with 3-4 rotating cross divisional games (based on the MAC's 13 school schedule rotation)
  • 16 schools – 9 conference games. With protected rivals you will have 7 division games, 1 protected rival, and 1 rotating cross division opponent. Without protected rivals you will have 7 division games and 2 rotating cross division games.
Recruiting Changes/Improvements
  • Sway Pitch - This year, Sway Pitch has been tuned to provide more of a bonus when you are successful, and less of a penalty when you fail. Additionally, we've adjusted the percent chance that a Sway will be successful to help make Sway Pitch a more effective recruiting tactic, I believe you will now find the Sway Pitch option to have a greater impact during recruiting. *5/27
  • CPU Scholarship Offers - The CPU will now offer scholarships more intelligently, and as a result, causes some much closer recruiting battles with the CPU against other CPU controlled teams and the user.*5/27
  • CPU Recruiting based on Play-Style - you will find that the CPU will focus upon players that fit their particular play style. That means scrambling QBs will be targeted by option teams, while air raid teams will look for pocket passing quarterbacks.*5/27
  • Incoming Prospects Ratings - updated the incoming ratings for all generated prospects with a focus on ensuring they are consistent with the recruits on the default roster. Now you won't notice a drop off in overall player talent in future years of the Dynasty when the players on the default roster have graduated. I think you will find that some positions, in particular Kickers and Punters, will be far more accurate this year.
  • ESPNU150 recruiting list replaced by SPARQ100 *5/23
  • Pipeline state map has been changed, now showing states that are in danger of losing pipeline status if no recruits from that state are recruited that season *5/23
  • school logos are listed next to recruits name in the recruiting list. makes it easier to see who is in a recruits top 3 *5/23
Other
  • For Online Dynasty, the commissioner can set what level everyone is at, things like 1* prestige teams, coordinators only, to full on head coaches *5/23
  • Scheduling Logic changed to try and maintain traditional dates for match-ups(Ex: Michigan-Ohio State will always be last game, even if they are in different conferences) *5/26
  • Sim Running Stats - The sim stats for the running backs, backup running backs and quarterbacks were also tuned. Meaning when you sim in Dynasty, the backup HB will get more touches and, in turn, more rushing yards. Quarterback sim stats were adjusted to be more in line with actual NCAA results. The added benefit of tuning these stats is that it facilitated tuning Heisman. Throughout Dynasty you should now see a much better balance of several different position types winning the Heisman.
Online Dynasty Purchase Packs
  • For Online Dynasty, Ability to advance the week on the Dynasty web site($2.99/240 MS points) *5/23
  • For Online Dynasty, ability to call you game versus the CPU via Super Sim on the Dynasty Web Site.($2.99/240 MS Points) *5/23
  • For Online Dynasty, you can purchase the Commissioner's pack, which include the advancing from the web site, Super sim from web site, and ability to host 5 ODs for $6.99/560 MS Points *5/23

New Plays

EA has selected 25 new plays to highlight(there are more than 25 new plays in NCAA 12), They have all been released, they are:

Offense:
  • Pistol Full House HB Off Tackle - The Pistol Full House, aka the Diamond formation, was first unveiled last season by Oklahoma State and was later adopted by other teams across the country. A staple play of the three back pistol set is the HB Off Tackle play. Playart
  • Shotgun Spread Flex Wk Y-Stick - Another spin on a staple play of the Air Raid offense that's used by Houston, as well as others. Shotgun Spread Flex Wk Y Stick calls for the halfback to motion out of the backfield to the right. This motion puts him in a spot that allows the Y-Stick concept to develop. Playart
  • Weak I Normal Y Over Fly Sweep - Oregon State's Weak I Normal Fly Sweep has the TE aligned on the line of scrimmage to the split end side of the formation. This creates an unbalanced set to the left with extra blockers for the fly sweep. Playart
  • Shotgun Twin TE Slot PA Slide - This is a play action boot pass that has two deep crossing receivers and one receiver, usually a TE, who slides under the line of scrimmage and in the flat. Oregon likes to use this play once they get near their opponent's red zone. They're usually successful at getting the ball to one of the crossing receivers for a big play. Playart
  • Pistol Spread RNS Switch Smash - Hawaii's run and shoot offense can now be run from the Pistol formation. The traditional staples such as RNS Switch Smash can now be found in the new Pistol Spread formation. Hawaii and SMU's playbook also features the run and shoot version of Pistol 4WR Trips. Playart
  • Pistol Train Triple Option - Primarily used as a short yardage power set from the Pistol, the Train formation as it's called by Nevada gives the offensive a variety of ways to attack the defense in short yardage situations. The Triple Option play is one such play that can be used to attack the defense. Playart
  • Shotgun Wild Tiger Trey Fight Song - Auburn's offense features a wide variety of unique and imaginative plays. One of the more interesting plays in their offense is Shotgun Wild Tiger Trey Fight Song. In this play the left tackle aligns on the ball on the right side of the formation in a receiver position. The left tackle is used as a decoy to throw off the defensive recognition of the play. Playart
  • I-Form Twin TE Badger Power - A staple of the Wisconsin power running game, I-Form Twin TE Badger Power is a play that combines elements of both a counter and power play. The Badgers like to send the wing tight end in motion to the weak side and at the snap he becomes the second puller on the play. Factor in the fullback and Wisconsin can get three lead blockers at the point of attack. Playart
  • Shotgun Trio HB Wk PA Husker Y Post - Nebraska's offense is known for generating big plays in the running game. To compliment their explosive rushing attack the Huskers will often use play action passes. Shotgun Trio HB Wk PA Husker Y Post is a play Nebraska uses with great success for getting the ball deep down the field to their tight end for a touchdown. Playart
  • Shotgun Normal Flex Ark HB Wheel - Shotgun Normal Flex Ark HB Wheel should be a familiar play to the fans of Arkansas. This is the same play the Hogs used to score a touchdown on the third play of the game against Alabama last season. The concept known as Shark in the Arkansas terminology uses a shallow cross/dig combination in the middle of the field and a post/wheel combination on the outside. Playart
  • Shotgun Wing Trips Wk Tiger Buck Sweep - Clemson's new no-huddle shotgun based offense will strive for balance with the run and pass. A staple run play of the Tigers. new offense figures to be Shotgun Wing Trips WK Tiger Buck Sweep. The play is an off shoot of the Wing-T Buck Sweep in which both guards pull and lead block for the ball carrier. Playart
  • I-Form Twins UK Fade Smash - I-Form Twins UK Fade Smash is a unique way that Kentucky likes to run the smash concept. In the traditional smash concept the slot receiver runs a corner route. The Wildcats like to use a fade route which gets the slot receiver near the same deep area of the field as if he were running a corner route. Playart
  • Ace Big Twins Weak Flood - A three tiered flood concept, Ace Big Twins Weak Food can be used to attack a variety of defensive coverages. The post route is the first read in the progression and if open the ball should be thrown there. The deep out route by the slot receiver combined with the shallow cross route of the tight end creates a hi/lo vertical stretch on the defense. Playart
  • Shotgun Trips Unbalanced Mizzou Jet - Shotgun Trips Unbalanced Mizzou Jet is a new addition to the Tigers high flying spread offense. The formation calls for the tight end to align on the line of scrimmage and places the split end on the left off the line of scrimmage. With three spread receivers combined with the halfback in the backfield, Missouri can get four blockers at the point of attack on the jet sweep. Playart
  • Shotgun Quads Trio Slot Pivot - Shotgun Quads Trio Slot Pivot is a play that's designed to put a horizontal stretch in the underneath coverage of zone defenses. The inside receiver closest to the formation runs a shallow cross while the next receiver to his right runs a pivot route. Those two routes going in opposite directions creates a natural void in zones for the dig route that***8217;s ran by the next receiver over in the formation. Playart
Defense:
  • Nickel Normal Cover 6 - New to NCAA Football 12, Cover 6 is a split field coverage concept that has the secondary playing Cover 2 on one side of the field and Cover 4 on the other side. Add 2 plus 4 and you get 6, thus the name Cover 6. Playart
  • 4-2-5 Over Thunder Zero Cop - A new addition to the 4-2-5 defensive playbook, Thunder Zero Cop is an aggressive pressure scheme that calls for both inside linebackers and the strong side safety to blitz. The unique aspect of the scheme is the term Cop which tells the defensive end to play man coverage, usually on a tight end. Playart
  • 3-3-5 Okie NCAA Blitz 3 - The 3-3-5 Okie formation is new to NCAA Football 12. This formation allows teams that base out of the 3-3-5 defense to get into a more rational 3-4 Normal look. A widely used scheme from this look is the NCAA Blitz 3 which is a three deep, three under fire zone scheme. Playart
  • Quarters Normal Dbl Loop 3 - With the ever increasing popularity of spread style offenses in NCAA Football, we made the decision to add the Quarters Normal formation to the game. The Quarters normal formation features three down linemen, one linebacker, and seven defensive backs. DBL Loop 3 is an overload fire zone concept that's used to bring pressure to the weak side of the offense. Playart
  • Nickel 2-4-5 Slant Zone 2 - From a coverage standpoint is a standard 2 deep, 4 under fire zone pressure. The play calls for the two inside linebackers in the 2-4-5 formation to move to each side of the formation to show blitz. Combined with the pre-snap movement of the nickel cornerback, remaining linebackers, and both defensive tackles, the play gives the look of an exotic blitz scheme in which any combination of the players could blitz. Playart
  • Nickel 2-4-5 Cover 3 Bluff - The complimentary play to the Nickel 2-4-5 Slant Zone 2, the Nickel 2-4-5 Cover 3 Bluff uses the exact same pre-snap movement by the linebackers, defensive tackles, and nickel cornerback. This scheme falls in line with what's known as an illusion defense. The defense gives the offense the appearance of an all out blitz with the exotic look, but in reality it's a basic 3 deep, 4 under zone coverage. Playart
  • Dime 3-2-6 Spinner Buck Dog 1 - An aggressive blitz pressure scheme that's used by teams such as LSU and Nebraska, Dime 3-2-6 Spinner Buck Dog 1 is a good play to use in passing situations. The play uses a six man pass rush which includes the right cornerback. Playart
  • 3-4 Predator Cover 2 Sink - The 3-4 Predator is a defensive set that calls for the right outside linebacker to align in a three point stance. This gives teams that base out of the 3-4 the ability to get into a 4-3 look. Cover 2 Sink has both corners getting depth on their zone drops in order to take away the natural void in Cover 2 between the safeties and cornerbacks. Playart
  • 4-2-5 Under Slide Rover Wk Dog - 4-2-5 Under Slide is a new defensive formation for NCAA Football 12. This defensive look from the 4-2-5 calls for the secondary to align in a two deep look with one cornerback aligned tight and the other aligned in a loose technique. Rover Wk Dog is a pressure scheme that allows the defense to rush four defenders at the weak side of the offense. Playart
  • 4-2-5 Okie Across Bullets Dbl A - 4-2-5 Okie Across places the five defensive backs in the formation in a loose alignment of about 8 to 10 yards. In addition to the alignment of the defensive backs, the right defensive end aligns in a two point stance similar to that of an outside linebacker. Bullets Dbl A sends both linebackers in the formation on blitzes in each A gap. Playart
