NCAA Football 09 Ratings: UCLA, Pac-10

I came across this some time ago but I just keep on forgetting to post it...

So for those who enjoy playing some college football on a video game console, or who are looking for a point of debate on the seemingly arbitrary ratings that EA Sports and 2K Sports come up with for team ratings in their sport games (really...$C has a rating of 99 out of 100?), here are the team ratings for the Pac-10 teams:

  Overall Offense Defense
Arizona 84 86 82
Arizona State 86 88 87
Cal 81 79 85
Oregon 81 81 82
Oregon State 77 75 80
Stanford 74 79 76
UCLA 81 83 82
USC 94 90 99
Washington 79 81 80
Washington State 77 77 78

The offense and defense ratings, I believe, take into partial account the every single offensive and defensive player's individual ratings, while overall also accounts for special teams. I'm pretty sure there's something else factored in there, but I think it's just something arbitrary. Anyways, the full ratings were released on the web back in May and the game isn't released until next Tuesday, so there was some time to give/take from the ratings.

I just wanted to bring up an interesting point of discussion and debate with the ratings since it's always been something debatable on the gaming discussion boards that I frequent. A final note: I do think that they hit the nail right on the head by placing our overall rating in the middle of the Pac-10, albeit the offense and defense ratings are just...wrong.
