Then the only teams that would have Neutral Site games are the User and the teams that he plays. The CPU wouldn't have any Neutral Site games.

I feel like you could do the neutral sites correctly the first year...the issue would be the subsequent dynasty years. Who would be in the next year's Chick-Fil-A kickoff when it isn't determined yet. A simple solution would just be get this year's right and let us do what you had quoted in the following years. I'd take that.

Re: Neutral Site Games?

I agree that neutral site games is a pain.

But I agree with the gentleman above stating it isn't as easy as you may think it is.

I am around (don't work @ it, mind you) a new develpmental system @ work and even the slytest change can bug up a system so bad, it could take weeks just to hammer that bug out to where the system (in this case, the game) works properly.

You take that in to account along with certain deadlines to meet and a year to year develpment cycle along with other improvements/adjustments and some stuff just doesn't make it.

I'm not saying that is a valid excuse as to why neutral site games aren't in there. They honestly should've been in there by now. But (and correct me if I'm wrong) with a lot of shaking up @ the top of Tiburon, you can't expect everything.

That's an easier of way of saying it's harder than you think than jumping on people like a puma

Re: Neutral Site Games?

There were neutral site games in NCAA Football 2000 for PS1. I remember playing Miami with Notre Dame at the old Giants/Jets stadium. I don't recall if you could schedule this, or if it was just part of the old Kickoff Classic that was automatic

Re: Neutral Site Games?

Even if they just added neutral site games for all of the rivalry matchups that have those (insert those games here because Virginia Tech doesn't have these), and then had it open for the Chic Fil A kickoff every year. It usually always includes an SEC team...so they could randomly select from a pool the SEC team, and then figure out something for the opposing team. They could do the same for the games played at Jerry's World. They could do a random team thing and set it up just like they do the conference championships and bowl games. Just a thought.

Regardless...I want Neutral Site Games!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This year, Virginia Tech plays Cincinnati at Fed Ex field (redskins), and yet on NCAA 13, I will have to play them at Virginia Tech. sigh...

The LSU Oregon game was the Cowboys Classic at Jerry World, this year's matchup is Michigan vs Alabama. Cowboys Stadium has hosted numerous matchups like Arkansas vs Texas A&M but now that it's a conference game both schools want it on campus because you can't host recruits at a neutral site game.
