They've talked about this before. They said that the animations were created for that ball or something and that if they made the ball smaller it would look funny like they weren't even touching the ball. So they would have to recreate the animations. Now I don't know all the specifics but that was their excuse, I have NO IDEA how easy this would be to fix but honestly if I were EA I would try and fix it soon, it seems kind of embarassing to not get the size of the ball right. Imagine if MLB the Show used a softball sized ball, or if NBA 2k's ball was the size of a watermelon. Honestly the ball looks closer to a rugby ball than a football.

Maybe I miss understood but didn't Madden correct the ball size this year? I thought I read that so I would think that if NCAA hasn't already corrected it, they will for '13'. But yes, it is obviously way too large in that pic!
They've said countless times the animations were built with the current size of the ball. That means players catch the ball with their hands in position to receive the ball as big as it is, they hold their arms in positions to fit the ball in between their arms and body with the ball, QB's have their hands gripping this particular sized ball, etc.
If we were to see them reduce the ball size like Madden, we'd also see the animation problems from Madden. Go watch Madden 12 footage and focus on where the ball is making contact with the players. There is a little "force field" between the ball and the player's body and is ugly. In the video with Eli Manning showing off the new DPP, you can clearly see the ball is at least an inch from his hands when he is holding it.
Of course, that isn't all too noticeable when actually playing, but I guess the NCAA team does not want that to be the case though, They're fine with the ball actually touching the players and being too big instead of it being the correct size, but never really touching the player at all and kind of floating.
I would prefer they go the Madden route because I would never notice it outside of the replay, but I understand if they don't want to do that.

Here's my question, what kind of ball did they use when they created the animations? That's what I don't get.

People are so angry. When I'm angry I just stop being angry and remember how awesome I am.

Contact with the ball is important. We want to get this right.
Keep in mind that we also scale players as well. Thats why it looks right in some cases and not in others. So scaling it down would not only make the ball float but it would also make it look small in the cases where it is fits the players proportions now. It should be easy but because of legacy issues it has not been that simple.
Also, Please take a look at the new features page/post created by the OS community where the thousands of new assets (uniforms, props, stadiums, mascots, vehicles, cameras, lighting, weather, ESPN broadcast graphics and animations), features and innovations added to NCAA 12 are listed. Everything new isn't listed there but most of it is.
IPhone texting is horrible. I'll fix that post when I'm back on my machine.

Brutal!!! Maybe they were unable to fix the ball size do to the animations associated with the ball and players.

I am an equipment guy and in one pic of Texas/Oregon there are 2 facemasks that don't even exist (the rb bull/robot hybrid, and the full cage robot) plus the dna bull mask that no one wears. It is obvious that EA knows what helmets players wear but it still baffles me that they leave these fake masks in the game and leave certain ones out (revo speed 2 bar qb). Oh one more thing the 3 bar rb looks nothing like it does in real life. They need to revamp that one.

you think they can put that in a Tuner
Tuners are for gameplay only....
And i highly doubt they are going to even bother making those changes you suggested it's irrelavant IMO
