        I would assume that to be the case. I don't know if they have a company that distributes like the CLC, but I guess we'll find out in time. There's still a lot to figure out before they go on with this.

            Maybe they are no longer going to buy madden because they think there will be no more NCAA football games to port from?

            BINGO my friend!

                    Yeah, you definitely make sense and know more than I do. I can keep dreaming, haha.

                    Storming the field would be a nice consolation prize

                            Why would it be any different than it is currently?

                                That's what's happening now, I believe. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

                                        No more NCAA restrictions. Once EA secures it's license from teh CLC for all the teams and conferences. It can add full playoffs, have kids get into trouble off the field, suspensions.

                                        College Football 15 could be down right amazing. The NCAA set up so many restrictions, i think this will make a better product

                                            CLC is also making their licence available to 2K.

                                                There's nothing to actually figure out. The NCAA didn't do anything licensing wise for any schools or conferences -- whatever agreements EA has had they still do. The only thing that changes today is that the NCAA isn't involved in the product, which is more cosmetic/superficial than anything substantive.

                                                    I share the same thoughts my friend.

                                                    I've been trying to figure out how likely it will be to see a lot more features added or brought back
