Throughout the action, the controls handle sweetly, combining the depth of a large number of moves with smooth playability.

If you're a "Madden" fan you are definitely going to love owning this game. It offers a faster play clock, fast pace, more action, and a lot less emphasis on possession and clock management.

The basic game play is nearly identical to that of last year's version, but the College Classics feature makes the update worthwhile. [Oct 2003, p.138]

No videogame fan, let alone a college football fan, should miss the experience of this complete game. Not many sports games recently can say they have all the simulation must-haves and all the fun arcade elements that make a sports game fun to play.

This game is so good, it's almost impossible to think that there's a possibility that the NCAA Football series can improve.

The real reason to pick up this version over last year's are the presentation upgrades.

The Cube game looks the worst of the three and the controller is a bit frustrating to tackle, so while the game is still fun on its own, if you own another system, leave your Cube for Link and hit the field on your PS2 or Xbox.

The new teams are the big draw here. The game has been tweaked and seems to be a fuller experience.

The option is a huge part of college football, and Tiburon has done an extraordinary job of replicating it in NCAA Football.

Online play isn't an option here, and the training mode is nowhere to be found. While the core game is still fun, there is little reason to choose the GameCube version unless the little purple box is your sole game system.
