    So do teams not have names on their jerseys?

    I noticed this on Bama's jerseys. That'd be pretty inexcusable unless they had a specific reason for it.

    i'm sure names will be on the jerseys in the final build. i've seen screenshots of teams (notably nebraska, but other teams as well) that showed jerseys with names and an entirely different set with no names.

    i wouldn't worry too much about it.

      And upon further review, the videos of the demo do not have names either... can't figure out why they'd do that in the demo. No reason for them to remove names from jerseys as they had them last year, but seems weird to not put it in the demo.

        Maybe because it looks stupid with "#13" on the back of the jersey where the name is supposed to be. Names might not show up until you edit them? Who knows.

          I hope, but I know in the past EA screwed up simple yet important aspects of uniforms. I think it was NCAA 08 or 09 where they didn't have the numbers on Bama's helmets. That might seem small but it's one of the most famous helmets in the country and looks completely stupid without it.

            That's what I was thinking as well, but who knows.

              Same...there just HAS to be an option to edit and maybe instead of someone having HB #3 on their jersey in the name plate, it's blank because it looks better. But I have seen screens w/ and w/o names. We should be fine.

                Yes the current crop of screens from the demo don't have the number, but earlier screens do.

                  If i remember correctly from editing rosters on teambuilder, the generic Position/# aren't filed into the first and last name categories. So the problem could be that the players' first names are QB #7, and their last names are blank.

                      On the subject of uniform names, here is a very easy way that EA could add more customization to the game:

                      Why not add a setting allowing the head coach to choose whether or not players get to have their names on their jerseys???

                      The UW went through a few years where we did not have player names on the jerseys, but after a few seasons they were added back onto the jerseys. Just another simple, easy idea that we won't see until 2030.

                        Yea I think for Washington Tyrone Willingham had just numbers for like 2 or 3 years. Due to fans complaining he put the names back on.

                        For the most part I think EA got it right last year with what teams have player surnames on the back and vice versa. San Jose state along with Vanderbilt, Wyoming, Northern Illinois, and Eastern Michigan have the player surnames on their jerseys but didn't last year in NCAA 11.

                        I don't think it's always the coaches decision rather the athletic department. For example Bowling green had the player names in 2009 and last year they took them off. They had the same coach for those 2 years. In NCAA 11 they were still on. I know for Kansas it was Turner Gill's decision to remove the names from the jerseys.

                        The teams that dont' have player surnames's on the back of their jersey's are:
                        Penn State
                        Kansas
                        USC
                        Connecticut
                        UNLV
                        UCF
                        Nevada
                        Fresno State
                        New mexico State
                        Notre Dame(Had them on for bowl game)
                        Bowling Green
                        Navy
                        Louisiana Monroe
                        Army
                        Temple
                        Buffalo
                        Miami Ohio(Had them on for bowl game)
                        Akron
                        Troy(For bowl games they put the names on)


                        Their some teams that don't have names on the back for certain jerseys like Ohio State's pro combat, Air Force thunderbird and Colorado's throwbacks.
