Here is a link. EA Sports has no current competition in the NCAA Football field, but they are not one to rest on their laurels. I will produce edited highlight of the interview and, to save time, reproduce only the negative responses.
Operation Sports: Will there be in gave saves?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Can the Division 1-AA teams be added to a conference without having to replace a team?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Can teams be moved to other conferences without having to replace another team? Say for example I wanted to put Notre Dame in the Big Ten or make Miami an Independent.
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Can we change a player's position or class?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Are the player ratings going to be more specific, for example, "who cares about the throwing accuracy of my right tackle"?
Tom Vuong: This system has not been changed for 2004.
Operation Sports: Will the current teams be able to wear the old school jerseys?
Tom Vuong: No.
Operation Sports: Will there be a create a play or playbook feature?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Are there any preseason spring scrimmage games?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Will we see specific era rules? Goal posts at the goal line, kickoffs at the 40, or no overtimes?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Operation Sports: Is there a user-defined camera like in Madden 2003?
Tom Vuong: No.
Operation Sports: Do four captains come out for the coin toss and can you select them in dynasty mode?
Tom Vuong: No.
Operation Sports: Are there any all-star games at the end of the season for the nation's best seniors?
Tom Vuong: No.
Operation Sports: Any chance we'll be able to save replays?
Tom Vuong: Not this year.
Actually, I don't think I saved that much time.
There's no create-a-play, but they do have a pennant-unlocking feature. The addition of pennants has been demanded for years now by gamers aged 85 and above, and for those that have not succumbed to raging glaucoma, cataracts and/or trencheye, the chance to see their favorite pennants represented in low-poly on a color television after jumping through some hoops in an NCAA football game is now a dream come true.
