Whoever thought that was a good idea... Wow. Just wow.

EA is ****ing clueless.

Yes, I am grouping everyone in the entire company into that statement.

I'm just not buying it. Why use the NCAA 14 fb page—a game that the company was essentially legally forced to abandon—be the platform for promoting something about the national championship tonight? The EA Sports general fb would be more fitting.

And then why something so cryptic?

Updated OP with a bit of perspective.

Doubt its anything but if you are going to do an ad to announce a game that'd be coming out this year or next, you'd probably do it when the most people are watching that particular sport.

But with that said, there's just very little chance EA's been able to keep such a thing a secret...plus they seem to be outright denying it means anything. But who knows.

I think they knew what they were doing.

I'm hoping that was just a clueless social media intern, because if that came from a higher-up, that's pretty dumb.

I just want a good football game and baseball game on PC.:\

If it was just to promote the NC game tonight, where wasn't there a post on the same page for the OSU/Oregon game last year?
