However, with that being said my money is definitely on there being no pre-game. Why do I think that? Well mostly because in the trailer there is a screen showing customization of music and there is no team entrance music (someone painstakingly looked for it in the trailer and it's not there). So if there is no entrance music there is probably no entrance and thus no pre-game.

the ps2 version of the game had a pregame without team specific entrances last year. They would show the guys running onto the field, talk about them, and make their predictions.

So just because their isn't a option to customize team specific entrances, doesn't mean that a pregame does not exist.
