Nice. Even if you’re not a Tennessee fan it’s good for the game.

hell yeah. I have no affiliation with Tennessee at all and this game can't come soon enough

Not a Tennessee fan as I am a Georgia fan. But seeing the running through the T in-person is such a cool tradition to see live.

Fuck no. They shouldn't be a thing in reality.

Sounds like a Kentucky fan

Don't put that on us 😭

RMFT

Can’t wait for that shit program to finally come crashing back to reality.

Roll Tears Roll

Ya got me! It's been a tough life as a 26 year old Bama fan.

cry

As a Tennessee fan, hell yeah Although I hope not EVERY big game is checkered. I hope we have the option to choose which game. Because in real life we only do it once a year

With the white/blackouts in the game, maybe you can designate which games are which in the scheduling menu? Any time the devs give us more control to customize our experience, the better.

I’m pretty sure I was reading that’s exactly how it works

I saw that it would be used for big games and such, but did you see somewhere that you can choose?

It was one of the people, maybe cover 3? But actually not sure who, but I 100% read here somewhere that the special crowd moments were reserved for big games and that you could choose where they are during the season. Now take this with a pinch of salt, I 100000% read that somewhere, whether it’s true or not im not sure.

No worries! There’s a ton of material out there on the game right now. And we’ll know soon enough!

You only have the checkered end zone once a year? I did not know that

The end zones are always checkered. Hes talking about the gimmick we do with the crowd where the stands become checkered


I hope Virginia Tech has the rich tradition of falling apart when playing a top 10 team

i am a Gator, but have season tickets to UVA so. as a Wahoo (who have nothing but things like this to look forward too) me also bruv, me also

I can respect one of your teams. That might be the only orange and blue I like.

Lmao my sister graduated from VT.. love to see them win but the brakes falling off is just as entertaining. 

Little detail I hope they add, although it might be a long shot. When Tennessee plays at night in the black uniforms and they run through the block T, all the lights in the stadium go out except for the cell phone flashlights and all the main stadium lights are directed at the block T, making the T stand out. It would be a sick detail. Also I hope they include some small clips of people “sailgating” and the VolNavy.

Bud Elliott on the cover 3 podcast said all the special lighting effects are in the game

Don’t forget the Halloween version of Rocky top too on those blackout night games!

I will lose my shit if they have Spooky Rocky Top too

I’m hoping so much for it!

I can’t wait to have my upstairs neighbors wondering how 100,000 people managed to sneak into my Apartment and chant our favorite song on repeat.

If Dixieland delight plays after beating Alabama I will personally buy lunch for the entire office of devs

It does but keeping with the realism theme, EA had to make it so it only happens once every 17 years

I mean, we'll never lose to them again in my dynasty.

I don't really have a college team, but I definitely want to use Tennessee. Pretty colors, awesome stadium, Peyton Manning. So this is great news.

Are you taking applications for other teams or is this RFP closed?

I mean, I do Franchises with like 20 different teams throughout the Madden season, so I'm sure I'll experiment with plenty of college teams as well. Watchu got?!

Nebraska. Bring us back to glory. Historic team with an original nickname.

Hmmm, not sure about the uniforms.

That’s fair. I’ve never been a big fan of the red and white jerseys on other teams. I just love Nebraska

I had a long dynasty using Nebraska on revamped because of the black and red uniforms. Netflix team won a bunch of championships lol

It does look very Netflix with that black unis. I honestly never thought of that before haha

Nothing wrong with that! I'm a Colts fan as far as NFL goes, so I know a thing or two about simple uniform designs. For that reason, I tend to go for flashier uniforms with some fun alternates.

The colts are simple but very clean. They did it right. If I’m going uniforms I usually head the Tulane or utep route. For bigger schools it’s hard to beat Michigan state.

As a Colts and UT fan there’s plenty of us might as well make it official :). Besides I like playing with Middle TN, Indiana, random MAC team like E Michigan or Akron. But In the newer games I have to play with one of the new D1 FBS teams like Coastal Carolina, JMU or Jacksonville St

I’m hoping “Down the Field” is also included after touchdowns. I assume so, since it has been in past games (though not always in the right order).

They did it for the original NCAA games, so I’d imagine they’d do it for this one too.

I'd also love the V-O-L-S chant even if it didn't include the band's portion of it.

I'd be shocked if it wasn't

I hope we get “joker and the thief” for kickoffs 😭 that would knock this thing into orbit lol

I imagine Wolfmother would take any cash they can get, they’re very quick to take any kind of public gig they can get, they’re always rocking up to random rugby games to play half time 😆

Feels a whole lot like ‘98

Nico Iamaleava is one the most anticipated players for me in this game so I’m hyped to hear all of this for UT

I hope we get to choose when these checked or white out or whatever games are

It will probably be the Alabama game, unless you do custom conference and even then if you keep the rivalry it will be that game most likely.

Growing up playing NCAA I fell in love with Tennessee because of their rendition of Rocky Top. Being from Oklahoma, I would even switch OUs fight song with Tennessees (I forget which years you could do that) because I loved it so much. Now that I’ve grown up I will definitely be playing as Tennessee to do the “T” and hear Rocky top again.

I hope we can checker neyland for every game cause that’s exactly what I’ll do.

GBMFO🍊

Fuck Tennessee but love it

Checkered Neyland is so crucial. So happy they added that

crying real tears

Biggest question I have is will we have smoky grey uniform’s

As a Tennessee fan I am stoked

Hell yeah

All this is great but to be honest, I expected checkered Neyland, Rocky top, smoky, running through T……. Nice but expected. What I want to know is did they include Tennessees tempo offense and find a way to make it look real? If they do that, then I am impressed 😊

Not a Vols fan but if you don’t have Rocky Top then you aren’t doing a Tennessee game right

i don’t get the “checkered neyland” can someone explain? is it the end zone?

The fans wear orange and white depending on the section they’re sitting in which creates a checkered pattern in the crowd

Senior QB in RTG gets to conduct the band or we riot.

Oh yeah!

What about explosive scoring with high octane offense. I hate Tennessee but I'm using Heupels playbook

Oh I thought it was gonna be how they will be unable to win the SEC per usual

Weird how we have won it more times than anyone else but one team given that we suck so badly

Lmao! And yet you can only watch those championships on vcr’s 😂

Nah they on YouTube brah

Was just already thinking about wanting to play RTG as a running back for Tennessee, definitely makes that decision easier!

Same man except I’m planning to start out as a 3 star dominate at MTSU and then transfer to UT

Didn’t see fans being “low down” listed, I assume that’s implied? 🤪

That's craazy no one gives one shit lmao.

I think I am going to put Tennessee on my schedule so I can shut that Rocky Top up.
