    EA SPORTS NCAA Football 12: Help us shape cannons

    EA SPORTS reached out to the NCAA Football community today and is requesting information on teams with cannon traditions during their games.

    To TSO:

    “We are looking to find out what type of cannons a school uses at their home stadium (either the modern military style, or the classic “western” style), if the cannon is fired after every touchdown, and if the cannon is located inside the stadium (i.e. on the field).”

    Ben Haumiller

    We’ve started a thread at tso… or you can feel free to post here at OS and i will consolidate the responses and send them in.

    At Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, Smokey The Cannon is in the South endzone during homegames and sometimes taken to away games, depending on the rules. It is fired when the Longhorns score, at every kick off and at the end of each quarter.

      Virginia Tech - Skipper Cannon.

      Today, Skipper is fired from outside Lane Stadium when the football team enters the field and when it scores.

        West Virginia has the mountaineer that fires his rifle directly after the touchdown and after the PAT....it's not a cannon but it isnt in the game and it's along the lines of this thread

          For those of you that will inevitably complain about where they placed your team's cannon, here is your chance to make sure they get it right.

          BTW, depending on what else has been done to improve the game this year I have mixed reactions about adding something like cannons. I will wait until more information is released to decide though.

                  Ole Miss uses the modern military cannon after touchdowns and field goals. It is located in the corner of the North Endzone. (endzone where the Jumbo Screen is)

                        Wow, imigine how great the gameplay must be if they are trying this hard on presentation.


                        Just gonna say this, I feel like teams like Troy, Marshall, Army, Western Kentucky University Wyoming are not even going to have these new fixes (bands/cannons) done correctly.

                          My thoughts exactly. The Teams that get the attention are only ever the 6 star prestige. Still, I think this is a cool idea, but maybe make more team-specific stuff. Not all teams have a Cannon (Houston has a Cougar ROar, I believe, for example)

                              Clemson plays it after every extra point, field goal, and kickoff.
                              Its kept on the field in whatever endzone the offense is going towards
