Let me say that NCAA 11 is by far the best of the series. However, let me state 3 things I praise about it, and 3 that I criticize NCAA for.
Strengths
1: Deep Dynasty - This year's dynasty is insane(in a good way). Excellent recruiting, streamlined interface, and an in game trophy for 60 YEARS!?!?! I have a feeling I won't be putting this game down anytime soon.
2: Offenses - It's about time offenses played like their real life counterparts. Texas Tech will throw all day long, while Navy runs their classic option. Good to see different teams play differently.
3: Animations - Recievers toe drag near the sidelines, backs moves are much more fluid, and tackles are more dynamic. Excellent job EA.
Problems
1: Rocket Catch - ...It's been 5 years since the jump to next gen. Fix it already.
2: No Road to Glory Updates - The last time I played this mode was NCAA 08 when it was called Campus Legend. Other than Erin Andrews' presentation(which was in NCAA 10, by what I understand), the mode is EXACTLY the same. Getting the achievments for this mode is going to test my sanity.
3: Saving/Loading - This is a very minor complaint, but it seems the game struggles sometimes to load menus or replays. Also, if anyone can tell me how to turn off the autosave, please do.
So that's my thoughts on the game. However, I want your thoughts too. What did I miss? Are there other problems I haven't seen? Am I a complete moron for not knowing how to turn off autosave? Let me know.

go to system settings and it should be there( autosave) and another problem Brad Nessler and Kirk Herbstreit are boring! and the ESPN broadcasting is a strength. but i agree with everything you said.

yea it is under system settings....and I agree patsfan....the commentary seems like Nessler and Kirk felt forced into doing their voice overs for this edition...kinda like hitting each other shoulder to remind them to say something

Needs uniforms getting dirty (Perfectly clean jerseys while playing a game in the middle of a rainstorm! and more natural grass fields need to have more wear and tear on them during progress of a game.

True, I forgot the repetitive commentary(I turn it off). Also, thanks for the info on autosaving.
