NCAA 2014 is a fond memory for sports fans, but it was the last game of the series thanks to issues with player payment, image rights, and representation.

But with the NCAA game topic opening back up to discussion, and Madden 21's recent reveal on how NCAA content will be incorporated into the game, this is certainly an exciting time.

IT'S BACK!- Face of the Franchise is making its return in Madden 21

Madden 21 has officially revealed Face of the Franchise's return as a popular game mode.

This mode has become Madden's biggest crossover with the NCAA in recent releases.

In Madden 21 we will see more positional flexibility allowing for playing at RB and WR instead of only QB.

Madden 21's Face of the Franchise will also last for two NCAA seasons, giving the chance to bring home two championships before the draft.

PRO BALL- How much NCAA football will we see in Madden 21?

While fans were hopeful for a huge NCAA crossover game mode fully fleshed out with teams and players, it looks like Madden 21 isn't there yet.

The most NCAA crossover we know about so far is in Face of the Franchise, which isn't a bad thing as the mode itself is growing to encompass more of the college football experience.

But for the diehard NCAA hopefuls, we aren't out of chances yet to hear about a surprise NCAA addition. EA Play is still to come.
