Social media calls out EA Sports over lack of college football video game details during CFP title game

Published:
Fans anticipating news about EA Sports’ long-awaited college football game during the national championship between Michigan and Washington have been left disappointed over the 1st 3 quarters of the game.
Multiple media reports have stated that EA Sports would release an update on the game during the contest, with 247Sports’ Brandon Marcello stating that the information would be released online. That said, the report did not state what type of update EA Sports was expected to provide.
With Michigan-Washington in the 4th quarter, fans have yet to see anything. While summer has been pointed to as a timeframe for the game’s release, the specifics of that have not yet been released on an official basis.
Somewhat understandably, fans who have been waiting for EA to reboot the franchise for years are a bit frustrated that no news has been released as the CFP title game reaches its latter stages.
Here’s just a sampling of the reaction:
