Some new NCAA 14 screenshots have been released, featuring ‘Bama, Texas and OU. Nothing really groundbreaking here, but one thing I noticed is that the end zones in the Cotton Bowl are reversed. Minor detail that I’m sure nobody cares about.

One thing that’s annoying about football games is the lack of camera angles you can choose. Whether you’re on offense or defense, sometimes you want to see your entire team (or the opposing team) on the field at once. Madden recently fixed this issue by adding in “zoomed” and “wide” angles, but now,  NCAA 14 is helping fix this problem with another angle: “coordinator” view. Here are the three differences.

Coordinator:

Wide:

Hopefully we’ll see all 3 in the Madden franchise as well.

EA Sports has released some info detailing what’s new in NCAA Football 14, dropping this July. The biggest change for this year is the addition of the Infinity Engine 2, which basically is a game engine that incorporates more dynamic animations and collision detection. So rather than automatically dropping after getting hit (as was the norm in previous versions), you’re able to regain your balance, depending on where you get hit (of course). The engine was introduced to last year’s Madden franchise, and now college football is getting the same treatment. If you’re a visual learner like myself, the video explains it all:

The NCAA 14 team also focused more on the college-style option plays, which over 30 new option types to choose from.

There’ll be more info in the coming weeks, so look out for the following:

  • Presentation video (April 18th)
  • NCAA Football Ultimate Team video (May 15th)
  • Dynasty video (May 28th)
  • Play a Season (June 17th)

NCAA Football 14 is out on Tuesday, July 9th for the XBOX 360 and PS3

Former Michigan QB/WR Denard Robinson will don the cover of NCAA Football 14 after winning EA Sports’ “cover vote” campaign via their Facebook page.

In the end, it came down between Robinson and Texas A&M WR Ryan Swope. There was even some controversy with some questionable voting methods from the Aggies. This marks the third time that a Michigan Wolverine has been featured on the cover of the game, (Desmond Howard in ’99 and Charles Woodson in ’06).

NCAA Football 14 drops this July for PS3 and XBOX 360.
