Yeah, About That "College Sports Video Game" Talk...

Earlier this year, the NCAA announced they would not renew their license with EA Sports for NCAA Football. Of course, conferences and schools could sign licensing deals for their rights, but the SEC announced they would not renew their license. Of course, schools could still sign for their own rights. So how many schools have decided not to renew with EA Sports for it's now-untitled college football game?
1.
One goddamn team.
And the SEC will return next year.
That's what sources are telling gamer-blog Kotaku. The Big Ten and Pac-12 are out, and the NCAA is still out as well, but those have no impact on the issue of player likenesses being used. The game will only be limited by the inability to use the two conferences' logos and championship games. And the lack of NCAA license simply means a name change since they can't use NCAA Football.
