Saw that. Lot's of butthurt Iowa fans on social media talking about it. Kinda of crazy though that they selected Nebraska and Michigan St. I would have thought it was probably going to be for sure OSU and then from there maybe Michigan or Nebraska with a possibility of Wisconsin.

Nobody wants to be Wisconsin in Madden. No sizzle.

They were talking about it on sports nightly last night. I believe they said first time since 2013 that Nebraska was an available option.

So will the players get paid from this for the use of their likeness??

It's an NFL game. There is no likeness going on here. Only way you can play at Nebraska is by some career mode thing where you take your QB from college to the pros. So it's your made up guy you play as and randos I'm assuming. No rosters or anything.

So how does it work? You get to play the created guy for 10 games per season (2 seasons allowed)? And would be playing against the other schools mentioned?

I've also been playing lately, but with the 2019 rosters. Boy were they bullish on Isaiah Stallbird's future!

NU is one of the Madden teams because of what a big and passionate national following Nebraska has. There's probably also some factor of schools that were ready and able to carve out the legal specifics. But EA probably did their homework and knows that Nebraska fans show up and go nuts for it when NU football is involved somewhere.

I think this means we'll see NCAA Football 22. Which will be what sucks me into buying a PS5 in July of 2021.

I haven't played Madden in a while because the lack of competing games has made EA exceptionally lazy but I have played NBA 2K20 because it's included with MS Game Pass, your My Career player starts in college but it's a made up school and you only play one game. I hope this is more interesting than THAT (2K20 is also pretty lazy).
