So I still am looking for my lifelong quest of the model used on the cartridge & plan on having him autograph a cart for me - but in the mean time the stories & info finding along the way is just as fascinating! 

I have always wondered if it was a model, a player or a member of the Tecmo staff that created it.  I bet someone on here knows.

Amazing news!  Thank you in advance. 

bruddog, I don't know how to do the coding you've done.  This rom you've attached is the original game with just this code tweaked?  At work with my Macbook so can't open or test it until I get home later today.  If your script to be added to the hacks section that would be cool.

just put in Chris Warren and you're good to go

I have been working on my NCAA 24 but now that I see you completed one that is superior to my efforts I will just pop a top and enjoy yours!  Thanks.   Glad to see you added my JMU DUKES and some smaller teams.  Well done!  Bummed to see you added UK instead of UF!  I may have to fix that after I download it.  Thanks again! 

I did 13 years ago when it was D1-AA.  See below.  

I have thought about making a D3 rom but never did it.  I usually put out just the NCAA FBS level one and make the FCS one for myself only.  I have always wanted to do a high school one with the best programs of all-time.  Life just gets in the way.  Holy Cross has had an unreal run.

You need to send App St back to Boone and add Navy!  You can't have Army and not Navy.  Can you add playbook editing in game?  It would be amazing being that TB is so limited.

Come on man?!  

Seven year bump, impressive or just weird?  1st post may explain it.  If valid, why would you add Michigan State to 1AA?!  They don't deserve to be demoted.  Why not download one of my other college roms (links below) that already have the Spartans on it.  Good luck.

Sorry for the confusion for those that downloaded it and couldn't access the roms before.  I figured out the problem, deleted the old and uploaded the new, and it should be fixed now.  I love the color rush versions.  Hope you do too!

You downloaded the zip file with the 4 roms in it.  Did you unzip the file?  I use bruddog's nestopia aka brutopia.  Here's the link ---> Brutopia

Kurt Cousins sure killed the Vikings with 3 ints. Glad to see you are enjoying the game! I made sure the hacks included in the game didn't affect people editing the game with TSBTool.

Everyone appreciates that.  Thanks!  You should make your last version after the draft and this crazy free agency period.

I live outside DC and have a ton of Redskins fans as friends.  Poor bastards.  Anyway, I took your rom and put Alex Smith as WAS QB1 and Kirk "Kurt" Cousins as MIN QB1 and recorded a game just to see what would happen.  Then, today the Vikings sign Cousins and "Kurt" cashed in.  Anyway, I may do this more as the player moments keep happening.  Enjoy.

Redskins (Alex Smith) vs Vikings (Kirk Cousins)

I am going through this last update and will play some games later on.  So far, I like what I see.  I'm curious what your Andrew Luck ratings would be.  I get that Brissett and Tolzien get the nod over Luck though.

You may not know this but I always have the Army-Navy game as an option in my NCAA roms as I make them the Pro Bowl and call it the Military Bowl.  I even make them even teams so the game is fair even though Navy has had the upper hand in recent years.  I love that rivalry.  Some people disrespect it because they're not the top caliber players but there isn't a game where teams want to win more in my opinion.  I also love their run-happy offenses and think it's refreshing.  A buddy of mine comes over and we play Army-Navy and only call run plays, no passing and no field goals.  We love it.  Ground and pound.

I have played your NCAA Tecmo Bowl and loved that you added Army, Navy and Air Force.  Cool.

Alright, then it's settled.  The final division will be Kansas, Syracuse, BC and UMass.

Jeff Sagarin's Final 2016 Rankings of both FCS (A) and FBS (AA) levels rates 253 teams.

#62 Boston College

#83 Syracuse

#125 Kansas

#142 UMass

For what it's worth, James Madison University was ranked #33 and ahead of 96 FCS or A-level teams.   National Champs 2016!

Maybe they should be #32 in the NCAA rom?

No Syracuse... indeed.

Ok, fine, they're better than Kansas.  26 wins in last 5 years.  They just need Jim Brown, Larry Csonka, Dwight Freeney, Art Monk and Donovan McNadd back.

If I were to make mine this year...

SEC West - ALA, AUB, LSU, TXAM

SEC East - UF, TEN, GA, KY (Gave Cats the nod over Cocks.  FU MuschUmp.)

ACC - CLM, FSU, LOU, MIA (VT got 5th spot so moved them to INDEP with WVU.  WVU in BIG12 is asinine so I fix that.  Worse than MD in BIG10.)

IND - VT, WVU, ND, BSE  (BSE will win 9 or 10 again but who cares?  VT-WVU, bring back the Black Diamond Trophy!)

BIG10 East - OSU, PSU, MICH, MSU (Hoosiers maybe over Spartans but no MSU seems off to me.  My buddy went there too.)

BIG10 West - WIS, NW, NEB, MIN

BIG12 - OKL, OKS, TCU, TEX (I dropped KST over TCU and TEX even though they will probably do better.  Bill Snyder, so underrated.)

PAC12 - USC, WAS, STAN, UCLA (Oregon or Wash St could have made it but I gotta have U$C-UCLA.)

Pro Bowl Teams - Army vs Navy

Worst Team Possible - Hmm, maybe the Gophers or maybe I add Hoosiers in their place and make them The Worst.

I was thinking about making WVU the worst with Will Grier Jr. #7, UF Transfer and now QB1 for WVU.  He'd be Jeff George.

Sorry - no Purdue, Boston College or Syracuse 

By the way, Kansas is 9-51 in last 5 years.  You'd be hard pressed to find a team that's done worse.  Kansas State went 43-22 in last 5.  Kansas has lost to Kansas State in all 5 of those years by the score of 217-72.  They streak is at 8 losses.  And for a fun comparison, Alabama is 64-7 in those 5 years, with 4 SEC Titles and 2 National Titles.  ..l.. Tide

I'm curious if anyone is going to make a TSB NCAA 2018 rom for this upcoming season.  Dave?  Baron?  Buck?  Xplozv?  I usually do but don't see it happening right now.

You can knock that out in 2 days?!?  You are good sir.

Certainly not Kirk (Kurt) Cousins!  I put that as Monster's release date is all.  Summer is here and I have Tecmo fever.

August 19 is too far away. 

I second Dave and Bodom's thoughts and picks.  I want Tebow beating the Steelers!  I like Mack and Wentz too.  Beckham's is great but he's such a dbag.  Jameis' just makes me hate those unis even more.  Awful they are.  Bring back creamsicle!  I think I will print out the Joe Thomas cover and make it my official one.  The dude needs to win something.  A+ work.  I will test out your rom later today.  Although, Uncle Rico is flawless.
