Bowl Patches Are Coming Back in NCAA Football 12

[Solidice]

I had a feeling it was going to be bowl patches, since it was stated it was going to be a small presentational detail. Not terribly exciting, but details are always nice.

Love seeing the grass actually coming apart in the pictures.

You talking about OS or EA? Don't think we have been hyping anything on the front page or anything...

Not the gameplay that I go out there and spend hours with and play every game last it's my last but we're talking about patches man. How silly is that?

I didn't know Allen Iverson played NCAA Football! Well played

We'll have more this afternoon, they wanted to let Christian break the news on bowl patches but I believe we'll get more in the blog post than just bowl patches information

A NCAA Blog about anything makes my day. I'm hoping they put in a more unique playing environment for bowl games. You know since that's what your actually playing for and recruiting for the entire season. No matter how small everything helps and I'm glad EA is looking at the detailed stuff that makes College Football authentic and exciting. I can't wait till I get my hands on this game!

Rofl, love the reference.

Notice how on that one screenshot #72, #47, and #8 seem to be looking towards the ball carrier. Could this finally mean players will be aware of where the ball is (wide outs and d backs turning their heads and looking for it on catches, eyes following the ball carrier when making tackles, etc.)? Sounds like a small feature but it was a beautiful thing in the 2K series.
