    I still don't understand the why behind this.

        It was a joke. I misunderstood it.

          The why was supposedly because the National Title game is tonight but WHY not post this same thing last year?

              There HAS to be something going on... You don't just make a post a year and a half after your last just to say you're excited for tonight's game...

                I could see this turning into JMF16. Buckle up, folks.

                  It already is if people are getting overhyped about social media posts.

                    This obviously could be a huge mess up on the part of EA's PR team.

                    That being said, it absolutely could be a feeler of sorts. PR companies do this all the time. Throw a rumor or tease out there, see how people react and then the publishing company can have a better idea if people are looking to buy the product. I really doubt this is an actual announcement but it could mean something.

                      College football will definitely make a return. There's no doubt about it. There's too much money to be made for it not to. It's only a matter of time. I stick by what I said before, I believe a new College Football game will be announced at E3 & don't be surprised if it gets released in 2017. There's definitely something to this. I'm not buying that it was a troll move.

                        They posted this because of the NC game tonight? That's probably the worst thing they could do to a community. This is a real kick in the groin.

                          New to the forum but wassup everyone ! I signed up because of this trash that EA did today and, since NCAA14 is on everyone's mind.. I mine as well now use their screw up as a way to broadcast this and get it back at least on the Xbox One. All it takes is a simple vote.. Please take time out and go vote.

                            Interesting. Even though this was on the EA page, I just can't help but think that Joe Montana and 2K are really the ones behind this. I have some YouTube videos to show you that will really blow your mind.

                              But why would they need to do a feeler? They should already know that people will be clamoring to buy any new NCAA Football game simply based on how popular the series was before it was forced to be cancelled due to the legal actions of a couple of individuals who shall remain nameless and by how much people were upset over its discontinuation and have been clamoring for its return.

                              As has been said, at best it's a cryptic message that some announcement is forthcoming (perhaps even a spot during tonights game) and at worst it's an epic troll job or a poorly thought out move by one of their PR guys.
