Thanks Barky that was a TASTY preview!

Yeah, it all sounds encouraging. NCAA football is traditionally my favorite game, so the positive impressions are encouraging. 2005 was really disappointing, but 2006 (even with the "easy bomb" and drop problems) really reminded me how much I love this series.

And Mad Scientist's review last year was very solid, so I am cautiously optimistic. Why doesn't EA include game speed sliders, though (a la College Hoops 2K6)? That seems to be a very subjective area of preference, and a relatively easy thing to implement. I (like many others) feel like Pasta's Madden Nation videos of the game seem to be in hyper-speed. Pasta said the game doesn't "feel" too fast, but it sure as he** looks too fast to me. It would be nice to have the option to adjust the game speed. With that said, I can't wait to play this game on the '360.

are the receiver actually gonna catch passes this year? THAT will determine if I buy this or not.

I like how the stadiums are looking

I don't like the fact that some big schools don't have their stadiums in the game... And it looks like the FL/GA game is being played in Athens when it is always played in Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville.
