If Lou Holtz isn't on the sideline orchestrating my band that is sitting in the student section, then i am not buying this game this year!!!!!!!!!!11111@!!11

Welcome to the boards Alex, you seem like a really cool guy. We NEED you here. I am so excited to see what the big news is tomorrow, I am a huge NCAA buyer. The game comes out right on my birthday every year, and it is always the one present I ask for religiously. I hope you guys deliver on what you did with 11, that game was near perfection, and I am still playing it.

Wow....No Cam Newton? But Jake Locker is mentioned???? Wow....#politics Heisman/National Championship winner > Overrated Huskie QB with no real statement wins as a CFB player smh

# 83 sportzbro @ 03/03/11 02:55 AM

Oh boy, we've got ourselves a new dev.. Welcome Alex Howell! Looks like things are about to get rolling with NCAA 12 & the OS board. Things can get a little intense around here. Deep down tho, we are all just a bunch of passionate fans that want an awesome game.

My vote is for Ingram, and can we PLEASE get at least a screen shot?

Just watched the "You want me" thing on Facebook that Fairley, Murray, Locker, and Ingram did.

No, Mr. Locker, I don't want a sub 50% completion percentage from my QB.

I don't mind Alabama in real life but I hate them b/c of NCAA Football 11 and the 21 national championships they win in 30 years, but Mark Ingram is the only deserving player of this group

Well when you're filled with tiger blood and Adonis DNA you would think it would be a lock.

You gotta be kidding me if the fact that we can vote for the cover athlete was the "HUGE" announcement.

Does anyone (outside of the 4 candidates) even care who is on the cover?

# 87 TripleCrown9 @ 03/03/11 11:30 AM

The voting gives them all a cover, maybe? The Top 2 get PS3/360, 3rd gets PS2, and Jake Locker will get PSP.

# 88 Double C @ 03/03/11 11:42 AM

As a Sooners fan, I voted Murray but I'd be very surprised if he's on the cover.
Ingram will win.

Same in my Dynasty. It's getting lame.

Hey Alex

As your idea about the cover was shot down, are you given more liberty to improve RTG or must you just take what's there and go from there.

In other words, have they allowed you to put some "WOW" into that Mode, because it gets stale very quick.
Really no way of earning your attibutes, they're just randomly given.
Then you basically go into a Coach Mode that consist of some plays and mostly Simualating.

MadSkillz argument to Fame is "Scrambling QB".
Another guy is "Dreads, Dreads, Dreads".
My argument to Fame is "Maxed Out Game Engine"

Will see if you were given the liberty to take it to another level or told to tweak what's there.

First Take was already on this morning. Was there any news besides the cover candidates? Was the game even on the show?

# 91 TrojanMan3 @ 03/03/11 02:12 PM

I'm from Texas. IMO Andy Dalton should replace LOcker. Its not about NFL draft status. It's about the last college season. Murray? No way. PP7 or DaQuan Bowers for defense representation. Something that this game lacks.

# 92 TrojanMan3 @ 03/03/11 06:57 PM

Just did some observations on the ESPN new college football theme and stuff. and i looked further at the background on the NCAA Website. Looks just identical. IDK if its gameday, I think its just the new college football theme and stuff. Im hoping for gameday just like you guys are. Im not making any assumptions. just observations. Cant wait for the first Blog.

oh yippie a cover athlete post. Always the most exciting information.

# 94 AuburnAlumni @ 03/04/11 04:46 PM

Straight garbage that Cam isn't an option, but he got the Heisman, an SEC Title, and the National Championship so a video game cover probably falls a bit lower on the wish list.

That being said, I will be voting for Big Nick every day until the deadline.

Try to justify Locker and Murray being on the list, and not Peterson, and then we'll talk about Cam

It SHOULD be Cam, Peterson, Ingram, Murray

Have to have a West Coast guy in there for obvious reasons.

Fairley deserves to be on there as much as anyone. Best defensive player in America this year (yeah yeah...I know...Peterson...I hear ya). Fairley was "Suh like" in 2010 and there should be more defensive representation on the Covers.

I agree with what is bolded.

Cam Newton: OMG no way should he be considered!
Nick Fairley: anybody that plays as dirty as he does shouldn't be considered.
Jake Locker: I am not sure why he is even being considered, an average player at best.
De Marco Murray: I think he would be a great choice
Mark Ingram: Probably the best choice

Why wouldn't you include Cam Newton? He was probably one of the best Qb's College Football has ever seen. Won a Heisman, National Title, Maxwell award.

He has extremely poor character.
