I'd consider it if you could transfer draft classes, but since you can't, I'll just get Madden. Next years NCAA will use the new engine that's running Madden this year. Hopefully that bodes well.
As for the issues from the Amazon post, I rarely play on line, so I don't really run into some of the mentioned problems. That said, I use Operation Sports site to make adjustments to sliders and what not to get the game to play in a fashion that I like. There again, there are plenty of pain in the ass issues with the games mainly being how ridiculous the CPU defense can be at knocking down passes that they don't see and what not. Last year's NCAA was much more fun to play then Madden in my opinion. Being essentially unable to have a deep passing game just sucks. At least NCAA had set up plays.
All in all, both series would benefit greatly from competion. It's been a long time since there has been a big improvement to Madden and NCAA has fallen by the wayside a bit. It would be nice to see them start putting the effort into the football titles that they've put into NHL. As for FIFA, I couldn't care less about soccer so I can't judge the game. I have however heard nothing but good things about it fwiw.
Totally agree about the competition. I would love to see competing NFL and NCAA games. The only NCAA competition that I can remember is Gamebreaker NCAA on the PS2. 2K actually put out a better NFL game at times. I always thought their passing system was better.
