EA Please add custom playoffs
For years, one of the most requested features among dedicated sports gamers has been a fully customizable tournament or playoff mode in college football games. While other titles have explored this concept, it’s still missing in a meaningful way here.Growing up, my friends and I would fill whole paper notebooks to create full tournament brackets—sometimes 12, 32, even 64 teams—just to simulate what the game itself couldn’t offer. That demand hasn’t gone away; if anything, it’s stronger now. Adding a customizable playoff/tournament mode (12–64 teams, flexible formats, seeding control) would immediately increase player engagement and replayability. This is the kind of feature that keeps friend groups playing consistently, creates organic competition, and drives long-term retention. From a business standpoint, more time spent in-game translates directly to stronger player loyalty and higher lifetime value. From a player standpoint, it unlocks one of the most desired and social game modes that has been missing for years. This isn’t just a feature—it’s a core experience that would keep players coming back for the long run. Thank you.CFB 26 Suggestion/Wish List
Just want to start this off with some gratitude that the game is back and here to stay. I think EA needs to realize that there are a lot of us who really enjoy and care more about the customization more than anything else. So that’s what I’m mainly talking about here. As far as player customization, EA should fix a few things: 1.) Please bring back the scrunch socks…why they took them out in the first place is beyond me. 2.) We should be able to change the color of our undershirts to match what sleeves we want to wear. I noticed this is a common complaint and it’s a valid one. 3.) Please add black socks to all schools. I’m tired of not being able to truly have a black out uniform because a school is stuck with the white socks option. Ex: Hawaii. 4.) Please fix the back plate exposed option. What I mean by this is the front of the jersey. The jersey number is not visible and the straps of the shoulder pads are showing. Nobody wears their jersey like that. If anything, the jersey is rolled up a bit so the stomach is showing but you can see clearly see their jersey number. 5.) I’m not sure if this is a glitch in the game but there are some cleats that have a different color than the one that is selected. For example, I want to have all black cleats and I wear the Nike Untouchables and they give a team color and black look. Some teams allow for them to be all black but most teams I have that problem with. So that needs to be fixed. 6.) Please add Create-A-Prospect for Dynasty recruiting. Miss being able to create dope prospects or myself and friends in the dynasty and being able to recruit them. 7.) Please add different leg sleeve options. They could have multiple options for leg sleeves such as the one leg sleeve for either leg and even add the half sleeve option where players have their tights half way up so they have a bit of leg skin showing. 8.) Turtleneck option would be awesome. Also, the “sheisty” look they had back in NCAA 07 would be sick. 9.) High School in RTG…Just bring back the NCAA 14 concept. That’s literally all we asked for. Playing moments in only a couple games? No thanks. Just bring back the option of importing whatever high school we want to play for and let us have the option of how many games we want to play and allow us to customize the schedule and schools we play. NCAA 14 had it perfect. Please. Those are my main issues about the game. I’m not complaining much about gameplay like everyone else. I keep my peace and mainly play RTG & Dynasty so customization is really what I’m looking for and care about. Most of these complaints could be solved with the updates they drop throughout the year and I don’t see it being that difficult for them to do. It’s really what we’ve been asking for.HORRIBLE RTG
My second post and just wanted to say that whoever worked on the RTG part of this project really put no effort into making the defensive side of it playable. They did an awful job and idk if I will be buying 27 because obviously nobody really cares about making a complete good game anymore. There’s literally like 3 game scripts and it’s such a **bleep** job that within the first quarter I can tell what type of game it’s going to be and whether I’m going to lose the game or not. It’s like I can put all the effort in to not lose a game, And no matter what this stupid **bleep** game script is going to make sure I lose it. I also would love to understand how the 94 ovr offense averages 10 points a week, when I get stop after stop, it makes absolutely no sense and you guys really need to do better.Triple Option Offenses 26
I coach football in real life. In the 25 version of the game the triple option was bad but somewhat tolerable if you narrowed your play selection. HOLY CRAP IS IT BAD IN 26!!! rocket toss is a TOO (triple option offense) big play. The ball should be pitched later than in the game and the HB should be running full speed. With a proper block at split end the a back should have no problem hitting the edge untouched. Instead when I run it I have an OLB over the top outside of me containing and a FREAKING DT running down the LOS preventing a cutback. Absolute dog crap. Inside veer triple option is just a hair to fast on the initial read. What happens is I make my read but the QB is already locked in to give instead of the pull I wanna make. If you don’t press and hold the pull button immediately after the play then it will be an automatic give every single time. That read needs to be slowed down just a little bit. read key- the read key is totally random on his responsibility. Realistically teams tend to protect against the triple option by containing the quarterback rather than tackling the fullback. Typically your full back is going to have more than 15 carries a game an average about 3 yards per carry. The triple option plays are going to be your boom or bust plays. The read keys use no logic they simply just randomly pick bite or contain every play. These are just my 3 biggest complaints, but I could list pages of crap that they don’t get right. There’s even plays where it’s a full back dive to the left and the fullback gets the ball in the B gap on the right side. EA did such a sloppy job with the triple option playbooks. They thought adding a bunch of pass plays would make everybody happy but the reality that EA does not understand is the average player is not going to play triple option. The people who are going to run triple option on this game are high school coaches possibly players and division 2/3 coaches and players. The only people who are going to run these playbook on this game (except for the maybe 2%) are people who are familiar with how it is supposed to run, play, calling strategies, who to double team, when to replace the red key on quarterback pulls or bounce it outside, and how to Game manage this offense. I understand the EA wants to make the game inclusive to all people of different skill levels but frankly, the triple option offense is not for an idiot or a 10-year-old boy/girl. This offense is very sophisticated and requires advanced knowledge to run successfully. EA seriously needs to get on top of this. I know that only a small percentage of people are going to run this offense but that doesn’t mean EA should skimp on all of their playbook and tell us that the playbook got so much better when all they did was add stupid, empty, pistol packages and one or two shotgun formations to every playbook. EA should be ashamed of what they’ve done with these playbooks.College Football 27
For the first 2yrs you have taken A I / Auto Pass out of the online play for the option to let the Quarterback throw the football. I would like to see this feature put back in for online play for the offense so at the snap you can take control of another position on offense. On offline play we can use Auto Passing and it's not fair that the defense can use any eleven players but on offense we don't have that option online at the presnap because we have to control the Quarterback every time. Also when playing online the running back and WR stop running after a handoff or catch where we have to control them, but on offline play we don't have do that. Please bring these features back for this year's game.Team chemistry still broken from day1
When EA, EVER FIX TEAM CHEMISTRY! I’ve spent about 100k coin changing player chemistry to my team YET WVERY SINGLE ONE DID NOT ADD TEAM CHEMISTRY!!!!!! why does EA keep ripping people off with unfinished products? don’t get me started on your own CPU’s that completely sabotage to help losing players win.Why can't I play Road To Glory like it's designed?
So I go to RTG. I build my character, do all the equipment and whatnot, but it won't let me play the high school portion where I have to compete and let the schools come to me. It automatically takes me to the section where I choose my school. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?This game sucks
My oline might be the most inconsistent thing to ever exist. They let everyone pass or block their heart out. Also a wr doesn’t drop the ball when they barely get touched. The pitch is stupidly broken. And my ai dbs don’t know how to play their zone. You all suck at making this game good
