Remember that NCAA regulations force you to use colors for home jersey and white for your away jersey, but colors and styles are purely up to you. Next up are the uniforms of your players. The game defaults end zone text to your university name on one side and your team nickname on the other, but you can change them to anything you want. You can also edit what is in your end zones. The next step allows you to edit your grass that is, where, or if, your logo appears on the turf, as well as what your grass is comprised of. Hey, ketchup and pickles kinda go together, don't they? I'm partial to Heinz Field myself, home of Pittsburgh. You don't get much in the way of customization here: you have to choose one of the stadiums that ship with the game. Your next step is to edit your team's stadium. Once the logos are up, you can actually check the "Logo Colors" box to reset your team colors based on specific points of the logos, which I do here to get that perfect green color.

The first step is to input basic team information. Be sure to save often! The team building website does not auto-save, and you wouldn't want to lose your work from a browser or computer crash, especially during the roster edits! You can save your school anytime via the Save School button in the top-right corner. Regardless, you'll have to link your EA Sports account to your Xbox Live or PSN username if you haven't already. You'll need to register with EA Sports (via links in the upper-right corner of the browser), or login if you already have an EA Sports account. To start the process, first head to this address:


Team Builder is done online, and the team becomes imported into the actual game. Team Builder allows you to create a high school or college for use in all modes except for School Showdown.
