NCAA '11 Rosters Are Out & Syracuse Is Who You Thought They Were
Thanks to Jon at On The Banks for the tip that you can see how the Syracuse players are rated in EA 2011 now. All you have to do is use the team builder tool and when it comes time to build your roster, just pull up the Syracuse roster as your template. And then BOOM, you've done it. Also, you get to see how ridiculous their animated versions of SU players look. Like Ryan Nassib:

Absolutely. Spitting image. And also, Nassib and Charley Loeb look exactly alike the game. AS IF RGLCL should suffer such a fate.
I don't know what the NCAA Football Odds are for Syracuse to win the National Title but something tells me they're not going to be doing it in the game either. At first glance, the ratings aren't too kind, mostly in the 70's. Not a great sign. Then again, there's quite a few 80's in there...progress, people.
As for the ratings themselves, here's some of the notables...
Ryan Nassib - 82
Charley Loeb - 73
Delone Carter - 86 (here's a shot of digital Delone in action...which might be the only way to see him in action anytime soon).
Antwon Bailey - 80
Averin Collier - 74
Marcus Sales - 81
Van Chew -80
Alec Lemon - 78
Chandler Jones - 75
Bud Tribbey - 74
Doug Hogue - 85
Derrell Smith - 86
Ryan Gillum - 77
Mike Holmes - 83
Ryan LICHTENSTEIN! - 82
Rob Long - 87
Couple issues with numbers not lining up. Didn't see #SHAMARKO on there by number but there's a sophomore SS rated as 77 so that might be him. Obviously, he's actually a 99, but they have to keep things fair.
Lowest rated player on the team? Linebacker Adam Harris with a 52. Oof. Not that far behind is Carl Cutler with a 53.
Highest rated player? Our punter, Rob Long.
Based on the rankings, Syracuse is looking at strong RB and WR cores, a strong LB set and a solid defensive backfield. Pretty much how you expected.

Ooof Chandler Jones a 75?
If EA Sports does updated ratings throughout the season like Madden, I’m guessing he’d finish around an 80-82.

Also on the Teambuilder tool, the 2010 team uniforms are available to copy for a created school. The Syracuse uniforms on there are no different from last year’s (whereas the new UConn uniforms can be seen).
So either the game isn’t going to have the new uniforms (which I think has happened previously to us) or there’s no change.
Addendum: They do have an orange jersey that I saw for sale at Manny’s when I was up for the ‘Nova game, but don’t remember seeing on the field last year.

Fake Nassib looks kind of like the dude Carter knocked out.

EA Sports is doing that on purpose
… to avoid lawsuits like some former players have out there against them where they say that collegiate amaters’ likenesses are being used for profit.
