Every blog is filled with fantastic stuff. The direction the Madden team is taking is great. Looking forward to reading more stuff.

Totally agree. As impressed as I am with Madden right now, I'm equally disappointed with the direction the NCAA team is going.

I don't think it's racist, but such things have been taken that way in the past.

If they did that, I would put a much bigger emphasis on the acceleration rating.

I do think the top speeds need to be closer to what your saying though, even lineman can get going pretty fast if given the space to get up to speed. I am interested in how much of a factor ACC is compared to SPD as far as in game results.

That would be awesome if they could do another 40yd chart but put everyone at say 85 SPD and only change the ACC from 99 to 80, and show the 40 yard times, along with maybe 10 and 20 yard splits. That would be awesome to see

I usually get pretty upset when you hear people that only play Madden downplay NCAA because they don't really enjoy the college game or don't care about it, but this year I have to say NCAA is looking like the little brother right now. Hopefully we will see something soon that will make me think differently.

If you choose to see it that way. Most "racism" begins with the person perceiving themselves as victims.

Still no word on whether these things apply to NCAA? That can't be a good sign.
