      That may be. However, that's not what I meant.

      I don't think they'll continue down that trend. I think the backlash over Franchise Mode sent a message.

      Only 133 days remain!

      Sort of semi-off-topic, are we going to do a count down thread? I know a number of sites do a thread where they post their favorite #99, #98 etc... as the days countdown to the release of the new game.

      YEEEEHAAAAAW! First info of the season!

      I wonder if the presentation revamping means new announcing! I really don't know how much more they can make it ""all new" without an announcer change. They can "continue" to build on the ESPN presentation, I suppose with some new interactive things, it could be all new enhanced....

      School Specific Crowd Celebrations!!!!!! Could this mean updated crowd? This would be a minor thing for most of the community, but boy would it make ME a happy camper!

      Making the crowd look better would certainly not be a major thing, but it wouldn't be a minor thing for me either. The crowd looks absolutely atrocious right now, so I wouldn't be against them at all to doing something about that.

      Maybe by enhancing entrances, Accessories, Jersey's, Stadiums, football fields, and presentation like this years ESPN broadcast.
      I CAN'T WAIT! Getting it for the Playstation 3. Hopefully a better student section that jumps up and down and coach's on the side!

      celebrate with teammates instead of all the individual showboating. drives me nuts. that ould really make the game for me. im really excited bout the RTG overhaul. i wish they would just make an entire different game in a RPG type thing. that would be SWEEET

      I want coaching carousel, better defensive AI, and custom playbooks before anything else. I do also think that a discipline system would be nice but for the love of gawd do not make it like the one of the past. That thing made me want to pull my hair out.

      something tells me coaching carousel will not be in the game, even though we have asked and asked.

      I believe we get:
      1. Journey of the college athlete to the next level of depth and authenticity
      2. All new enhanced in-game presentation.
      3. Something to do with a revamped rivals game (like home field advantage)
      4. 1 Unnamed feature (most likely custom playbook and revamped defense)

      you heard it here 1st.

      Well, that's good. I'd be a little disappointed with your list.
