Is it Ncaa Football 9.5 or Ncaa Football 10?

Glad to finally play a finished product. Overall the gameplay of NCAA Football 10 is very similar in feel to last years edition. I really do enjoy the new strategic tweaks and a couple of the new bells and whistles. I am still a little underimpressed about the time clock in the game. On all the EA football games anything over about 7 minutes for most is too long and I wish the clock mimiced the real game a little more. In real football in a 15 minute quarter can have like 3 offensive possessions per team at most and on the games its just been get the ball and score. My brother and I play full quarters and when we paly each other its pretty realistic stats. I do not know if anyone else feels this way. Most people I know outside my family play 5-7 quarters, I like the added strategy of battling the clock and keeping it real stat wise. 500 yards passing and 300 yards rushing would never happen at the same time for real, so keeping the score and stats legit is pretty challenging. The graphics are always pretty good, even though the guys are a little stiff and robotic, there are finally solid over the shoulder catches in the game and not all "rocket catches", who runs backwards to catch a pass that is not underthrown? The player lock is a nice thing that adds another degree of difficulty and unique prespective, kind of reminds me of in the helmut player view from another game I played once upon a time. Teambuilder is awesome, minor upgrades would make it perfect. The blocking in the running game is still sub par but a little better than last year, jukes and spins don't make holes, blocking does. The Season showdown seems pretty cool and road to glory is pretty much the same as last year with added presentation. I guess despite being like a better polished 2009 college football game I am happy, but then again I just love football and video games. I still believe Madden has to step their gameplay up, even though Ncaa does not capitalize on the pagentry of college ball, it is still fun to play for a long time, Madden has not done this on next gen yet. I would venture to give the college game an overall 8.5 and I think it would be fair to call it Ncaa Football 10, little tweaks do matter, I'll be happier with some big ones though. What do you think?
