I really ain't complete sure. But thats what they did online with 2k5

In NCAA if you had 1 guy who hadn't played or missed his time/went MIA/whatever then he would be put on "autopilot".

At this point if the owner plays a cpu team it's a simulated game (cpu vs. cpu) and whatever happens happens. If its an owner and he plays an owner then the owner that has been waiting or ready to play the guy who just went MIA plays his game against the cpu. Its very simple trust me.

Like I said I thought this would be a mess in NCAA and IMHO it was great.

Pretty sure that was referring to the position-specific cameras in co-op.

Thanks, now I'm really getting pumped for online franchise. What happened if two people wanted to run with the same team. I gotta play with the Eagles on online franchise. Regular head to head, or quick online games I like to play with different teams. For franchise, I gotta play with the Eagles.

Anyone know if there is an option to have Online Franchise Co-op? Two players on the same team

This is such a massive feature. Is there anything left to be revealed about Madden 10?
