| NCAA Football 09 and the Vols
So I've been doing some research. Anyone who plays NCAA games of the past that EA has released can tell you that they don't do the best job representing UT. The players' numbers are wrong, sometimes they don't even have the right player. We never had uniform options before, just orange on white or white on white.
Well I did some research on youtube and ign and discovered a few things. First of all it looks like they got our numbers right. They had Austin Rogers' number right and from the video it looks like Eric Berry's number on one of the plays. We now have orange on orange or white on orange uniforms which is really cool. And it looks like they gave us some props for home field advantage now which is awesome. Smokey looks good and the game looks sick. YouTube - NCAA 09 Gameplay Video MaddenGurus.com |

| This is because ESPN has persuaded EASports to jump on the "We hate all things UT" bandwagon! Duh!!! |

| the problem is they have to make the game so far before the season. They even had brandon warren on the team for 08.
the player rankings are out for the top 25 teams on the EA website. bet you can't guess who the only 99 ranked player is.  | |

| pardon my ignorance here, but I'm not that big into games. I have 08 for PS2 and it doesn't have any players names, just the numbers. do I really have to input all the players names? is there something I'm missing?

I'm going to bite and get a 360 or PS3 this year (even though I only play NCAA and Madden) because I don't think they'll do the rosters for PS2 anymore. | |

| I feel like we had the number one advantage on the 2006 game (05) season.

This site is where I generally get mine. | |

| Man, the highest rated player on UT's team on NCAA 09 is Demonte Bolden

| Maybe I'll like 09. 08 was an abomination for me on 360. I'd spent half the year playing it on the regular xbox, then got a 360 around christmas time. I picked up the 360 version, and it was like playing two different games. The gameplay was totally different, the playbook had different names, and they actually removed features that the normal xbox version contained.
Needless to say, I was not a happy camper, and haven't picked up the game in months. | |
