The producers and others at EA are saying that they are building the game up from the ground, seeing what worked and what didn't. Let's compile a list of things that worked in the past. I know some are repeats.

1. Create a School
2. Formation Subs
3. Custom Playbooks
4. Custom Camera Views (From Madden, but could be used in NCAA)
5. Setting Audibles from the playcall screen
6. 3 button kick meter (much harder under pressure)
7. Facemask penalties
8. Personal foul penalties

Mascot games. Well, at least I think they worked because nobody on here actually ever played one.

to extend this idea, how about making it to where you don't know exactly which button you'll have to press to actually kick it. Ie press X to start the metere, X to stop at the top, but then the last button could be Square, Triangle, X, or O. It'd be similar to God of War fighting system in which it flashes which button you have to press. For XPs & short field goals it could always be X but depending upon how well your kicker handles pressure situations and/or has the leg, it could throw up a random button instead of the routine third X.

make sense?

I played one with Hawai'i. It looked like rugby out there, no pads on the Warriors...:)

I like the random kick idea, but that will never get implemented because EA probably won't like/ be able to to tout it as some new, arcade-y feature.
