I'm interested in hearing feedback on this random thought I just had.
I have been reading 11W for a few years now and have enjoyed the sense of community in this blog and the overwhelming love for this team (Being from southern Ohio it's actually a bit harder to come by than one would think, and even the Bengals seem to barely get more love, so it is definitely a foreign concept to run into a mass of people who like my teams) and hopefully, this translates to some love for the football video games as well.
I haven't skimmed anything so maybe this is already been proposed or even started, but would anyone like to do any online leagues for either of the upcoming football titles, NCAA 14 or Madden 14? I think it would be awesome to have an all 11W league to kick back, shoot the shit, and bridge some time between buckeye game weeks.
***Not sure if an edit gives a bump or not to the topic, but:
Anybody having any changes of heart after the previews for the new NCAA game? The changes make it look like it is going to be a pretty fresh experience!
I'll probably end up getting NCAA '14 but I may have a hard time doing so if the QB/RB/WR/eater of things from a bowl guy is on the cover.

This.
I play '13 a lot, so if there aren't a bunch of improvements, I may not buy '14 anyway.

I think they did make a lot of tweaks in 13 so it will probably serve as a template for the next few years. Perhaps when the time comes we can see what the majority of interested members has and work with that. I play Madden 13 a lot still and I think that's a great game. EA actually seemed to make an effort this year. Anyway, I'm just putting feelers out for now to see what we're working with :) Thanks for the response guys!
Won't be getting 14 if Denard is on the cover. He wasn't even the best quarterback on his own team
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
Unless they actually take the time to fix the game instead of just putting on new rosters, there's no way I'm putting 60$ down for NCAA 2014. 2013 is horribly glitchy, especially online dynasties.
See I have only played Madden 13 this year but have really enjoyed it. I have never done any sort of online league mode so have no idea how quality it is or isn't other than that it sounds fun. Who knows, maybe 14 will be a bit more like this years Madden, I would definitely think it worth my money then.
I think ea concentrated on improving madden and adding a completely new polished engine that it made them act lazy making the new NCAA. I played the demo and madden seemed great and not just a redo of the same old thing
I'll probably get NCAA '14, and would be interested in a league. Are you a Miami current/former student? I'm a Miami alum.
That's good to hear. I graduated from Miami in 2010. Still living in Oxford for now but will probably be getting out in the coming months!
Nice, Oxford is such a great place. Class of 2004 here.
This is my skip year, I'm actually really, really, looking forward to NCAA '15 though for the PS4, which I'll assume will have a Buckeye on the cover after we win the NCG this season. ;-)

I'm like you Gametime. I don't really see the purpose of buying the game each year. There's usually only a few tweaks that they make, so I usually go every other year (I did every year from like 2004-2009 though). I have '13 and enjoy it so I'll just stick with it for now. Especially in Dynasty mode.
Yep, I'm still happy with my copy of NCAA '12. I'll might wait for 2014 and get my PS4/NCAA '15 combo.

For those of you who are looking for an excellent roster for NCAA13 (xbox) Download Gamertag:
IIIIIwiseIIIII (regular file) or two days slow (has all players going pro listed as seniors)
These rosters have:
All duplicate jersey numbers corrected for every team.
Top 25 AP ranking changed to reflect final poll this season.
Tons of rating and equipment edits. Very detailed.
This IMO is the best roster out there. The players play to their true strengths. I have played dynasties with these and never had freezing issues.
Dustin Fox was our leading tackler as a corner.... because his guy always caught the ball.
Good stuff @gluefingers...been looking for a good download, might be a goofy question but are they free?
Yes they are. From operationsports.com
