    Season showdown a waste?

    I dunno, maybe I am alone in this thinking, but I see me about never doing anything with this new Season Showdown thing.

    I don't even get it really, I have heard it explained and watched the videos and the whole thing just looks like a gigantic waste of disc space and time.

    I get that not everything in the game is made for my liking, but will any of you get any real use of out this feature? Will you be like me and just try it out one night just to see what it does and then never care about it again?

    Just wondering what everyone else thought about this thing. Maybe I am just being a negative nancy.

        If anything good comes of this, it's going to be that you can look at a players sportsmanship rating before playing them online. It will keep me from stumbling upon some cheesing a hole.

        I think it'll be a fun new twist because you don't really have to go out of your way to rack up points for your team... the hard part will be trying to decide between keeping FSU towards the top, or being one of the few Gopher fans playing along. I'm also a sucker for trivia and see myself doing that aspect of it a lot when I'm bored at home... somewhat more productive than surfing facebook.

            I don't want to hear how hard it is to add new equipment and dreads because of limited disc space...

              I'll probably never do anything with it beyond selecting Texas Tech. maybe all my dynasty games will help them out.

                Lol to the kid talking about equipment, to the person who said now you can see peoples sportsmanship rating thats a huge plus for me,every now and then i get a online game in besides OD, and that would definitely make me play the ladder alot more now.

                  Yeah, I am not very excited about this feature. Seems like a gimmick for casual fans.

                      How is it a gimmick for casual fans? the hardcore fans that arnt bandwagons to certain schools is who this is for, rep your school.Answer trivia Question about your school and other schools. This feature is for the hardcore college fans.

                        I don't mind the fair play stats for online and such. All games should have that I think. And the trivia and what not, eh. I like trivia so who knows.

                        What I don't care about is this make your school win each week and do all these pointless things so that your school... I just don't see the point personally.

                        Maybe Coke gave them some $$$ for it and that is fine. And like someone else mentioned Mascot games, they are not for me either. However, those things take up little space on the disc and take little time to make, so not having it in there is dumb too as I am sure some people use it. Just because it is not for me doesn't mean it shouldn't be in, but I just wanted to know everyone elses feelings and perhaps if there was a reason I would like this.

                          In Ncaa 05 they use to have it where , you could click on a persons name and see there stats. you could see the Run/Pass ratio, the percent that user scrambles per game,how much they ran the option and favorite playbook and how much they go for it on 4th down. this was how you would check if someone was a douche, the season showdown will help with that problem because on 360 it doesnt allow you to see none of that.

                            I miss that style of lobby so much, worked perfectly and you had your little trophy room... heck, I still get the emails saying I unlock them in 09, but never see them.

                              It was the best way to scout people, cuz it even did it for defense. i think the best lobby though was ncaa 04 you could type fast as ish, so trash talking was at its peak.now lobby typing is super slow all you see is generic messages.
