Say perhaps you’re a fan of the underdog and have no reason to throw a gamecover with the human bowling ball known as Quale Lewis in your NCAA ’11 case like we suggested and created for you yesterday. Then feast your eyes on this… BOOM. Parrish’d. You’re welcome, America.

Like many, I was somewhat disappointed that the cover boy of NCAA ’11 this year would be the Tebowchild. Granted, I love me some Bible verses and some baby rhino-ness, but enough is enough. There are far better players or perhaps more interesting characters to grace that cover. I can think of one from Ball [...]

Yes, we’re nerds. Yes, we still play video games. Yes, it sort of irked us that Scheumann Stadium didn’t look quite right last year with no end zone seating and no updated press box. Fire up, boys and girls, because Virtual Scheumann looks damn good. It only took a couple of years, but EA Sports [...]

Conferences are expanding and contracting, and it seems like we’re just a few moves away from some serious super-conferences that may completely kill the BCS.

The curious thing about this particular photo shows a visiting section decked out in red. This must mean Alabama is there, as clearly, if it were a Louisville game, most of those [...]

For anyone like me who’s anxiously awaiting the release of NCAA 2010 on July 14th, this comes as yet another dose of awesome to sort of get you through the shakes until it hits the shelves. Virtual Scheumann Stadium. No word yet on what virtual Charlie looks like, whether or not the Pride of MidAmerica [...]

It may come as a surprise to some of the OTP faithful that gaming in the ancient times of Sega Genesis or worse, the original Nintendo didn’t come with any sort of fancy appointments. In fact, looking back, most of us were suckers to continue to waste valuable allowance or precious real estate on our [...]

As any NFL fan, college football fan, or even gamer in general will tell you, the summer release of Madden NFL Football is like Christmas in late summer. As evidenced by the exorbitantly high call-out sick rate the day after release, the game is eagerly anticipated the world over. This year’s game looks to be [...]

For anyone who knows the OTP staff, we are unabashed gamers. Despite careers, marriages and kids (for one of us), and just being all around Asskick Joneses, we still find the time to game on a fairly regular basis, mostly centering our efforts on EA Sports’ NCAA Football series. So suffice to say, we’re stoked [...]
