• Announcing the Farewell to NCAA Football 11 Tournament


    In an effort to say good-bye to NCAA Football 11, we'll be holding a site-wide tournament. Additionally, due to the outage of the PSN network at the time, this will serve in place of the tournament we had planned for our one year anniversary. Just a fun tournament, this will help us test our newly implemented tournaments & ladder system for the forum and give us a taste of something of the things we hope to do in the next year for NCAA Football 12.

    We have tournaments for both the PS3 and the 360. To register for the PS3 tournament or for the 360 tournament, click the link for the tournament you want to join and then below the description, you'll see a button to "Join Tournament", click it to join.

    The tournament will kickoff on Friday at midnight. The matchups will be drawn at random. Players are expected to play with basic fair play standards, I think most of us understand that but if you have any questions, feel free to ask. Games will be played as ranked games using 5 minute quarters, teams will be up to the two users to decide... if you both want to use powerhouses, feel free; if you both want to use cupcake teams, feel free.

    As mentioned, this is a Farewell to NCAA Football 11, One Year Anniversary, and Test Tournament all rolled into one. We hope to do more with this throughout the next year including not only tournaments but also a year-long ladder system. Let us know any feedback as we progress through the tournament but let's have fun with it and best of luck to everyone.

      In, and no offense Dr Death but the colors and image inserts annoy the piss out of me....thats just me though. Seems to me it would be easier to let things go as they are IMO (which means nothing)

      Filling up now, got 3 spots till we hit 16 for the PS3 and there are 8 currently in for Xbox. Not bad, but some need to quit hiding () it's time for one more fun tourney before 11 gets sealed back up.

      Since I've never done one of these tournaments, what are the rules? How long are the quarters? What level? AA? Heisman? And what about rosters... if I have different rosters than others, how will this affect the game and/or connection? Sorry for the noob questions... just wondering.

      Rosters will be default rosters that are online, pretty sure its default AA and says 5 mins quarters. Rules are the standard "SIM" play rules.

      someone correct me if im wrong

      I take it we are waiting until it's completely full to start? Is there a deadline that we just go with what we've got?

      There's not a set advance schedule... we'll keep a steady pace but nothing set in stone. Just have to work with your opponent. Obviously if someone starts dragging then we'll go on without them. I'd prefer to have it run around a week so completed by the end of next weekend.
