Have a question about my NCAA Football 09 beta experience? Post it here, I'll try to get the answers online tomorrow. The requirements? You must have a mini-avatar setup.

Also, only one question per person, if you post more than one, I'll choose the easiest one to answer, to speed it along.

Does Georgia Tech or Nebraska have alternates and if so what are they? Thanks.

Steve,

Yesterday, you mentioned that you had only seen 1 pick 6 (unless I misunderstood your answer). On average, how many CPU thrown interceptions are you seeing per game?

Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Any updates on the turnover issues (Fumbles, Ints) from the games you have played lately?
Deep passing from the AI?

How many alternate jerseys does Oregon have and what combinations?

How is the deep ball? Can you overthrow receivers now?

Once you select the roster for Online Dynasty can you upload another later on?

Thanks Steve.

You said in yesterday's impressions that the CPU had a much improved passing game and was throwing around a 70% completion rate.

Now last year every CPU QB always lit me up. Even the most pedestrian QBs could complete 70-80% of their passes. I would have QBs throwing against me 22/29 with 3 INTs, but regardless, I rarely ever had a QB throw for 50% or less against me. Is the high completion percentage a problem this year or is it attributed to poor pass coverage?

just wondering if there were any improvements made to my shrine. if there are, what are they???

such as if you can save more than 5 plays per game, if there is a play list or watch play in full screen. because last year the same two or three plays would cycle through the jumbo tron. thanks again steve appreciated

Just a real general question. After reading your day 1 report it seems like there are lots of annoying little issues with the game. Being a Beta copy, how likely will it be that some of these issues will end up resolved when the game goes gold? While I know it might be hard to predict what exaclty gets changed, how different are beta versions from the gold? With EA sports games, is there typically a substantial difference? Thanks for all your help!
