EA Sports College Football is Making a Return - Exclusive Developer of Simulation College Football - Here's What We Know So Far...

BEST NEWS ... EVER!!!!

I hope it’s coming out this July. NCAA release day used to be a national holiday for me. I would take a week or two of vacation and just immerse myself in its goodness.

This will make me buy a PS5. The only game I play is NCAA 14, so there was no need to go to the PS4.

Yes, it's so incredibly early I wouldn't waste one second thinking about the possibility of them not being included. Pretty sure EA had to negotiate with those schools for past NCAA titles and they were all included there. If Notre Dame wasn't in NCAA 14, then maybe you should worry. But they're there, and were in every NCAA I can remember prior to that, so there's probably little to no chance all 3 of those schools aren't involved in this.

There is no release date, but they said it isn't coming out in 2021.

So don't buy that PS5 just yet!

ND has always negotiated on its own and their AD is a supporter of NIL. They will be in. Always have been.

If I gotta wait another 18 months or so, that’s fine with me. At least I know it is coming back. My excitement level is through the roof. I’m just really hoping Teambuilder is brought back.

The fact that now, even if 2ks football game is something I have no interest in like a mut game or arcade game, I still have a college game to look forward to is amazing.

IMO, it would be brand-suicide if teams/schools don’t want to be included. They know the revenue this franchise brings in, plus the brand awareness. If I’m notre dame or Ohio state, I’m making sure I’m represented in the game. It would be too stupid not to

I'd imagine that EA would negotiate with the big name schools that aren't in the CLC.
