Maybe the camera should be shifted and zoomed more to the player you control rather than just where the ball is.
Very simply, all football games have to have the option for the camera to not switch on a change of possession. Now for multiplayer games or if you like viewing it from the offensive side always, you could switch on the 'switch on change of possession option'.

But lets say you are playing the CPU and want to always be viewing the action from behind your team. (the same camera angle that doesn't switch on a turnover or change of possession)

There also won't be that "pause" that is in some football games when a player on the other side of the ball takes possession of the football.

I'd love to play a game like NCAA Football 08 on Original Xbox with that option to have the camera not switch when the CPU gets the ball.

I'd like to defend a kickoff by running down the field with my team from behind my kick off specialist and have to find a way through on coming tacklers to the kick returner.
