This week's Operation Sports Fact or Fiction features a couple of old NCAA veterans in Dave Branda and Patrick Williams.  Both guys debate some hot topics about the game, and give their thoughts on just how good NCAA Football 10 is.  Read on and be sure to add your own answers in the comment box!

#1 NCAA Football 10 is the best NCAA Football game since NCAA Football 2004.

Dave Branda: Fact - Please let me use some of my Philosophy 101 knowledge from college. If NCAA 09 was the best since NCAA 04, and NCAA 10 is NCAA 09 with a few tweaks to improve game play, then NCAA 10 is now the best since 04. By the way, I got a C- in Philosophy. Regardless though, I think its tough to argue this years game isn't a slightly more polished version of last years game.

Patrick Williams: Fiction - Only because it is simply too early to tell. The first patch has just been released for the 360 yet and if that correctly fixes some of the game play and slider issues then NCAA 10 could shape up to be a dandy. That isn't saying much though, since 2004 was the pinnacle of the series and not much greatness has come after.

#2 Dynasty mode needs an overhaul.

Dave Branda: Fact - If you think back we have largely had the same dynasty mode with the same features dating back to the first 360 version of the game. Sure, EA has continued to add layers to the Dynasty mode, but by and large its getting pretty stale. Time to think outside the box, add some brand new elements and freshen the whole thing up.

Patrick Williams: Fiction - Not an overhaul really, but a sprucing up more or less would do it good. It gets a little boring and tedious at times with the long recruiting, especially in season for the simulation nuts like myself who won't entrust anything to the AI. If they would just include some former features like discipline or medical red shirts, I am sure the game mode would feel like a fresh diaper on a newborn's bottom.

#3 Season Showdown is a waste of time and resources.

Dave Branda: Fact - I just don't think gamers care whether or not their "team" beats another "team" in some online contest with hundreds of faceless contestants. Just seems like a ton of time and effort that could have been used adding something meaningful - like formation substitutions.

Patrick Williams: Fiction - The main reason I'm saying fiction is simply because some people like it and to each his own. Just because something is not for me doesn't mean it isn't worth having in the game. The average person doesn't get what goes into making a game, so we really don't know what these resources and this time could have been spent doing on something else because we don't know how hard it was to implement in the first place. What we do know is that it is sponsored by Coke Zero and additional funding is good for the game so take that for what it is worth.

#4 Neither Florida or Oklahoma will make the National Championship this year.

Dave Branda: Fiction - Not knowing much about their respective rosters this year (I am not a huge college football fan), I'm going to say "no." Both play in such tough and competitive conferences the odds have to be pointing to two other teams taking the SEC and Big 12 crowns.

Patrick Williams: Fact - Dave was on to something even though his love for College Football isn't on the same level as die-hards. There are so many power teams in power conferences, so the odds of the same two teams getting back to the championship game are so slim because of how tough it is to get there in the first place. Perhaps one of the teams could return, but with conference championship games in arguably the two toughest conferences in college football, my money would say there is a very small chance of it happening.
