NCAA Football ( video game series ) - wikipedia NCAA Football ( video game series ) NCAA Football was an American football video game series developed by EA Sports in which players control and compete against current Division I FBS college teams. The series is a younger brother to the Madden NFL series. In July 2014, the NCAA announced that it would not renew its licensing contract with Electronic Arts because of an ongoing legal dispute regarding the use of player likenesses in the games. However, this contract only covers the use of the NCAA name and related logos, not those of individual schools and conferences, which are negotiated individually or through the Collegiate Licensing Company. The CLC concurrently announced that it would extend its existing licensing deal with EA through 2017, ensuring that EA Sports could continue the series without the NCAA branding. However, the series was placed on hiatus in September 2013, following three major conferences pulling their trademark licenses from EA, and uncertainties surrounding the results of lawsuits involving the use of player likenesses in - game.

The game was well received by critics. GamePro called it `` the most authentic and in - depth Genesis college football cart yet '', citing the challenging A.I., the huge selection of teams, and the many new features and gameplay elements brought to the series.

Authentic playbooks ( with plays like the Wishbone ), a USA Today / CNN Coaches Poll, and the Sears National Championship Trophy were also available. Reviews for this installment were still positive, but reviewers generally commented that the additions and improvements from College Football USA ' 96 are too subtle, and advised gamers who already owned the previous installment to carefully consider how important the new features are to them before purchasing. Electronic Gaming Monthly 's sports reviewers both gave it 7 out of 10, and Next Generation gave it 3 out of 5 stars. In the third quarter of 1996 EA Sports conducted a College Football ' 97 tour, in which they visited top colleges, holding a competition using the Genesis version of the game.

The game 's cover features former Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson, who was decided by fan voting. Robinson was picked over Eddie Lacy, Kenjon Barner, Jarvis Jones, EJ Manuel, Ryan Swope, John Simon, and Tyler Eifert during the voting process. Future of the series Due to recent legal disputes between the association, Electronic Arts, college athletes, and others regarding the usage of college athletes ' likenesses in video games ( which is currently barred by the NCAA because of the concept of sport amateurism ), they would not renew their licensing deal with EA. However, the expiration of the license only affects the use of the NCAA 's trademarks in the games ; teams and other events are licensed from schools individually or through organizations such as the Collegiate Licensing Company -- who announced on the same day that they would extend its own licensing deal with EA through 2017. As such, EA ensured that with these existing deals in place, it would still be able to produce future versions of the franchise without the NCAA license ( as it did prior to 1997 ) ; EA Sports ' executive vice president Andrew Wilson announced that the next edition of the franchise was already in development, and would `` ( still ) feature the college teams, leagues, and all the innovation fans expect from EA Sports. '' However, after the SEC, Big Ten, and Pac - 12 conferences announced that they would not license their trademarks to EA, the company announced on September 26, 2013 that it would not make a college football game for 2014. Player names This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. ( July 2013 ) Players ' real names and exact likenesses are not used in the game. While the Madden NFL series uses real player names and likenesses, those players are compensated for the use of their image. Due to NCAA restrictions on the amateur status of athletes, names are not allowed. Additionally, current college players can not be used as cover athletes. Instead, each cover features a player whose college eligibility ended the season before the game 's release, wearing his former college uniform. The only two exceptions have been the Wii version of NCAA Football 09, which featured Sparty, the mascot of Michigan State University, on the cover, and NCAA Football 06 when Desmond Howard was featured on the cover striking the Heisman Trophy pose during his career at Michigan, despite not having played for Michigan for more than 15 years. Although EA Sports does not claim that the players in the game represent real life players, the jersey number, position, height, weight, home state, and ethnicity are aligned with the real players. Fans of any particular team are sure to recognize their favorite players ( for example, in NCAA Football 14, Florida State QB # 5 would correspond to Jameis Winston ). Actual usage of a player 's real name would be in violation of the NCAA 's policy regarding student athletes. Amateur `` roster makers '' will often manually associate player names and will upload a roster file to the built - in roster sharing system. As of NCAA Football 09, EA has put in the EA Locker feature which allows remote roster sharing online through either Xbox Live or PlayStation Network depending on the console. In certain game modes, real players are given fake names. For instance, in NCAA Football 14, Ohio State QB Braxton Miller is referred to as Matthew Carrington. Soundtracks Prior to the release of NCAA Football 06, the only music featured in the game were fight songs of most FBS and FCS colleges featured in the game. These would play at random, however the user - selected `` favorite team '' would always have their fight song played first whenever the game was first started. NCAA Football 06 was the first and only entry in the series to include licensed music to keep the series in uniform with other EA Sports releases of the time, such as Madden NFL and the NHL series. NCAA Football 07 returned to the fight song only format. NCAA Football 08 added a cinematic theme song to the main menu, with fight songs playing during Dynasty Mode. NCAA Football 09 allows a new custom stadium sounds feature allowing users to edit what sounds are heard at specific stadiums during events within the game, such as a touchdown, field goal, or timeout. Fans of the teams can now create an authentic experience in each stadium by using copyrighted songs that EA is not allowed to put into the game. NCAA Football 10 plays Tick Tick Boom by The Hives in the introduction only. NCAA Football 11 uses the music that is used in ESPN College Football coverage.
