Arkansas RB Darren McFadden will be rated a 99 in NCAA Football 08, making him the game's highest rated player.
McFadden is the only returning Heisman Trophy candidate (Brady Quinn and Troy Smith moved on to the NFL) where he finished as the runner-up behind Smith. He won the Doak Walker Award for the nation's best running back tallying 15 rushing touchdowns on 1,558 yards as well as adding in 3 TD passes.

A closer look at NCAA Football 08 Campus Legend

First hands-on impressions from NCAA Football 08
IGN has posted up the first hands-on impressions from NCAA Football 08 as well as a new sizzle trailer. There should be even more in the coming days as there is a big NCAA Football event taking place in New York City as I write this.
Some of the things noted within the impressions:
-Game was described as being in "mid-alpha" stage. So still relatively early in the development cycle
-The "Hit Stick" has been improved. You now flick the stick up to attempt a high tackle, or flick it dow...
