The ratings are confusing. Take a look at the Oregon vs. Ole Miss screenshot. Oregon is ranked but Ole Miss has higher ratings. I hope they aren't predicting the rankings like ESPiN does. Just treat them like a power poll.

The team poll rankings have nothing to do with where EA has the team rated. They use a publication (used to be Athlon, not sure if that is who it still is) for the poll rankings. The team rankings come from the aggregate score of the player rankings which EA does themselves. There is no correlation between team rating and place in the polls.

I wonder if they will do something to fix the blocked field goals? The percentage of FG's that get blocked is completely unrealistic! I have actually watched replays of my FG's that get blocked in an attempt to assess the problem and I have noticed something VERY alarming with the blocking. The wings don't even fan out in an attempt to block the edge rushers. They simply stand there with their shoulders parallel to the line of scrimmage, what a joke! Surely EA Sports can do a better job with something as simple as that!

Non gameplay features that deal with dynasty, online play and so on are nice, but what I am concerned with is the actual gameplay that takes place on the field. Of course I always want improved graphics but my concerns deal with player mechanics/movements and the execution of the schemes that are available for use on the game. For example:

-blocking on field goals
-blocking on kick and punt returns
-jukes and spins
-downfield blocking
-pursuit angles
-zone blocking - stretch plays never work
-toss sweeps - specifically the Rocket sweep never works
-option blocking - is it really that difficult to have an OG leave a DT unblocked when running the midline, or to have an OT leave a DE unblocked when running the Veer? If EA can put 1000+ pass routes on the game surely they can figure out how to create realistic blocking schemes for the option game.

Coachveer I agree with you, being an old school guy who likes to throw a lot of triple option and things like that at someone, it gets frustrating when it isn't blocked correctly. We were a veer team in HS, I wish you could run things like that in NCAA
