NCAA Will Not Renew EA Sports Contract, NCAA Football Series is Dead in Name Only

Wonder if they could at least port this to the next gen consoles?

OK, I follow Kotaku writer Owen Good (@owengood) on Twitter, as I assume most of you all do as well.

He's saying this is a big overreaction and next year's could just be called "College Football 15" or the like, as the only thing that's being lost is the NCAA license. The CLC agreement means all schools and team logos would be available.

This could change, and my personal opinion is that this (along with the legal issues over player likenesses) could give EA Sports an out. And they could wash their hands clean of college video games for good.

A whole lotta confusion right now, that's for sure.

I hope he is right. But what about the post from the EA forum? Has that been confirmed?

I'll wait until I hear this from a respected journalist, an EA employee or EA through a press release. I'm not trusting the word of a random poster on EA's board.

I miss when SCEA/989 were involed in College Football Games.

Exactly. What I've been saying.
