    I am sure everyone posting in this thread will have their copy of NCAA on release day.

Fantasy draft was in Madden 12. So to compare the implementation of a feature that hasn't been in the game in 15 yrs to one that was in the year before is also completely unrealistic.
      It's happening in the 2014 post-season. So it's one college football season away. Actually, it'd probably be implemented this year if they didn't have one year left on the BCS contract.

      So yes, I assumed they'd have it in, at least at a rudimentary level.

      But, I understand they probably want to blow it out next year and make it the only new feature, so whatever.

        Not me, I usually skip every other year, last one I bough was 2012....gonna pass on this one, I will have a hard time getting into dynasty when I know after the first year, he way the champion is determined isn't close to correct

        A top 4 BCS playoff would also help fight some of the crappy polls...many times I've dropped from #1 to #3 or #4 despite winning (and having good victories)...a team that was #1 or #2 would be less likely to be dropped out of the top 4 despite continued winning and still be in the championship discussion, where if you're #1 and despite good victories could drop to 3rd or 4th and no longer be in championship contention with the current system

          Ok so if they are not adding a playoff the least they can do is improve the ranking system in the game. Sometimes it was god awful and some real weird stuff would happen in the rankings.

              Then when Alcorn St. or Ball St. go unbeaten and get picked as one of the 4, people will complain about that.

              Implementing something new into EA games implements new problems to deal with and get mad about.

                So what? People complain about the current BCS in the game. That's no excuse. Okay well it is. But like many of the excuses in this thread, it isn't very good.

                  Did this many people really expect the playoff system to be in this year? Geez.

By the time everything is in place we'll have NCAA 15 with the actually playoff format so why trip off something you don’t have all the details about? An option to use the BCS bowls are a playoff would be nice but it wouldn’t be accurate...
                    as opposed to the 0% accurate system that youll be forced to use during year 2 of a dynasty? is anybody seriously arguing that they wouldnt want the playoff?

                        Not sure, I didnt expect it, but that doesnt make me any less disappointed...I am shocked at the EA defending though...it SHOULD be in the game, they've known enough information about it for long enough now, oh well NCAA 2015, I can't wait!

                          I don't see why EA hasn't tried to build a couple different base models of the playoff format and then that way when everything is finalized they could just adjust the closest resembling model and patch it in their September or October patches. But they want sales so they wouldn't do that and instead will put it in next years game as the "main feature". I was somewhat excited about the game after reading about some of the improvements but if it doesn't start to vary from year to year as far as advancement in features and things like that then it's going to come to the point where it's not worth buying it every year but just every two or three years .

                            A playoff should have always been an option in the games. I don't care if it's not in the real game of College Football, the BCS/NCAA is a joke and they have EA on a very short leash. The quality of the EA game have been poor in the current generation except maybe for one good year. I can't believe the number of crash bugs they have in the last few games. EA is not even allowed to have a 16 team Tournament mode. EA and the NCAA give us a stupid excuse every year.

                            They could have included general playoff formats. Whether by the flawed top 4 BCS format, or by being able to pick the 4 teams by conference champions or even having a 16 team playoff (10 conference champs and highest ranked 6 remaining at-larges). I think the NCAA/BCS won't allow this because they know someone would come up with a better postseason idea then what real college football has right now.

                              I think that may have confirmed me not purchasing 14. Why do that when they'll have the playoff in 15.
