State vs. Houston 1985 Villanova vs. Georgetown 1989 Michigan vs. Seton Hall 1991 Duke vs. UNLV 1992 Duke vs. Kentucky 1993 North Carolina v. Michigan 1997 Arizona vs. Kentucky 2008 Kansas vs. Memphis Bonus teams (great teams with no real standout game): 1955 San Francisco, 1960 Ohio State, 1972 UCLA, 1996 Kentucky, 2007 Florida and 2009 North Carolina

Why not for '57 have the Tar Heels play the Jayhawks in the National Championship? UNC were huge underdogs in that game. (Think that's the right year)

The day is approaching and I can't wait for another developer to bring us some College B-Ball. I wish 2k12's create-a-team was more fleshed out, to the point that we could create college team logos to get a glimps of how it would look. I say patch the create-a-team to be more customizable (as far as logo/court/uniforms)

i think you might be mistaken...i think with C-Hoops both 2k and EA can get if they want it...the catch?i think the NCAA wants too much dough, and unfortunately sales were too low to pay what they wanted

There was no EA vs 2K battle here, just a lack of demand honestly.

yes, correct

So College Hoops got canned. =(:::::: I used to play College Hoops 2K7 way more than NBA2K7, and they were both great games.

don't EA lose exclusive rights after BCS championship this year?

Don't know why I said Kentucky. I don't even know if they played Kansas that year. Meant the championship game.
