    From what I'm hearing on this:
    Manning was offered a promotional contract above $600, and EA has already produced his "I'm in the game" social promotions graphic, and a formal opt-out would be news to Opendorse and EA.

    So I think this entire "not opting into the game" deal is either fake or a negotiation ploy by his camp.

    I think one year Madden had some college teams in it, with NFL players filling the roster and Compton was on that Nebraska team. Wonder if there will be something similar.

    Made me laugh how bad we’ve been lately that Compton was on there due to lack of Husks in the NFL.

    You can apparently play in “Plandemic mode” with no fans in the stands and Compton, Lewan, Pollack, and Macafee just talking about China while you sling it around the yard.

    Weird question, but have they said anything about including the actual names of FCS teams or will it still just be generic directional?

    FCS teams definitely aren't in the game, but I haven't read anything about them using generic placeholder teams. I assume they would.

    “The offer that has been made is not adequate for the rights fee for the awards,”

    It would probably take little to no effort on their part to have the awards in the game. Must be nice to just pass up on free money.
