In the last year, I've gotten reacquainted with the PS2 NCAAs and really, those were the best. I think 08 is easily the best of the bunch, even though 06 is the most heralded of the bunch. Dynasty for the PS2 from 06-11 was infinitely deeper than what we got for the PS3 from 11-14. The PS2 Dynastys made it fun to run with lower level schools and build them up, with conference invites coming based off of where you are and how well you were doing over an extended stretch. Also in 08, what really set this apart from the others, were Summer Training along with the ability to Medical Redshirt which saves eligibility for anyone who suffers an injury that takes them out for most of the regular season. (Must be careful not to do this with anyone you promised Playing Time to, they will transfer after the fact as I learned the hard way recently.) The one consistent thing we saw whether it was Madden or NCAA, is that features got lost going from the PS2 to PS3. Only with NCAA did the loss of features get offset in such a way where it didn't totally ding the game as a whole. 14 is a really good finale, but it's far from the best to me. I think 12 is a smidge better, but 14 is the last of its kind which means folks will revere it. Still, NCAA is one of those games that like Madden I played all the way from its very beginning. I think it inevitably would've fallen the way Madden ended up doing if the lawsuit didn't bring the series to a halt.

Everything after that is about as bad, if not worse The last *great* FIFA (if you could even count it at one) is the 2014 World Cup game. That was like the last time their games had actual depth.

To me as someone who first played 2001, 2009 was the last great one and 2011 was the last good one. 2005 had the best career mode with 2007 probably the peak of the series. Up until PES 6, PES wiped the floor with FIFA. But never made the transition properly to the 360/PS3 and has taken years to catch up.

As much as I enjoy NCAA 14, I love the PS2/OG Xbox version of NCAA 06 to 09 with 09 being my favorite. It takes everything that 06, 07 and 08 has and adds it's own twist like in dynasty practice mode, player displine and a Spring Game. Plus also real FCS schools, and create a school already in the game. Man I wish EA would release a remastered version of 14.

[@OriginalBiggie1]

NCAA 09 on PS2 was my favorite because we could import draft classes into Madden 09 until NCAA 14 did that for Madden 25. I really miss the emersion of these games. Taking a player and following him through his college years and import him to a new game and now following him. The time, the commitment, the progress, and the evolution of that player. It's something that we as football fans truly miss today.

O'Bannon does deserve all the hate he gets for destroying the NCAA gaming. He had no right to money just for a digital image of himself. He didn't do anything to earn it. He didn't assist in the programming, nor did he provide his voice for the game. He should have been flattered that NCAA would include him in the game, not greedy for more cash. O'Bannon wasn't just a former NCAA player. He's a former NBA player. I hate how people keep leaving that fact out. He made it to the NBA. He got his millions. Yeah his career flamed out fast, but he still made more money any of us will ever see in our lifetimes.

Great video, where do you download the rom for NCAA Football 14? I've looked all over the internet and can't find a rom.

[@kwall337]

This was hands down better then Madden. In fact once you couldn't transfer the draft class, I stopped buying Madden.

As a athlete who played at the college level & have been around other athletes at big name universities. I can honestly say no athlete should be getting paid bc they already go to school for free. They're also already making money & have huge loads of cash for being a college athlete that especially if recognized. There is a lot that can be said, but its just a lot of liberties already given to those football/basketball players for them to make millions even though their already cruising through school.

NCAA 06 🔥 also I saw on Twitter you said the last great MLB game was MVP 05. That is obviously the GOAT, but 2K had great games after 2K5 and The Show has made plenty.

[@JSeriously]

The only thing I hate about NCAA football, is how it switched to team builder. I still play NCAA 14 but not being able to create teams now is such a let down.

[@YOUNGPADAWON]

Madden lost more and more creativity as NCAA stopped coming out they played off eachother and I feel that it worked really well for each of them

[@keithharper1470]

This is a good point because if you liked NCAA and Madden you would run a dynasty then import the draft class to Madden franchise mode. A person like me would be spending $120 on EA titles but now with now with no NCAA and Madden has been terrible for years now they are getting $0 from me for that college to canton experience.

@@keithharper1470 I currently do a Ncaa14 to Madden 25 Dynasty/Franchise an you see a lot of similarities but also differences.. and it make each alil unique madden 25 isn’t amazing but it’s better than any this Gen the physics engine alone makes it feel more realistic and CB actually Play Dfence when they stopping doing ncaa Madden almost instantly declines no coincidence...

[@michealjones3297]

Ed O Bannon is a D bag. Thats why we went a decade without CFB

[@81casperflip]

I can't remember which year but i believe 08 on ps2, I would always recreate the Appalachian State vs Michigan game and try to win with the real rosters. Good times

[@SpeedBlazer99]

I think the Ed O'bannon lawsuit caused Madden, FIFA, & NHL to gain Ultimate team and the yard so they could pay for players likeness same reason NBA 2K has microtransactions in My career because what if pro players sue over not giving their consent to be in the game or paid accordingly ATHLETES NEED MONEY TOO!!!

[@connergentrytv]

This song reminds me of my childhood playing ncaa football it's been forever since I've heard this

[@cflasch75]

Lol GameStop was selling ncaa 14 for $40 and I snatched it right up

[@MH_0015]

That's a steal! I know someone that had to pay $100 online to get it, and that was his CHEAPEST OPTION!

[@CollegeSportsSuperfan]

NCAA 08 was my personal favorite but I love NCAA 14 as well!

[@lsubesteva]

The glitches was unbearable! The pump fake glitch was a game breaker! Anybody who’s played online knows exactly what I’m talking about

[@RayearthIX]

NCAA 14 is probably my favorite football game ever, and I always preferred NCAA to Madden. Haven't purchased a sports game from EA or since. :(
