How to play NCAA Football 2000 on Mac
Game summary
NCAA FOOTBALL 2000 has all the gameplay options you expect from a college football sim: Exhibition, Tournament, Great Games, Season, Practice, and Dynasty. You also get 114 division I-A and 26 new division I-AA teams, meaning you're likely to find your favorite squad on the roster. If you're feeling creative, you can also take advantage of the game's Create-A-Player and Create-A-Play features, as well as the new Create-A-School feature. This new mode lets you create a school, and then take its team through multiple seasons in Dynasty mode. You can also scout players and get them interested in playing football for your school by sending different members of the coaching staff to their hometowns. If you're looking for a college football game that has it all, NCAA FOOTBALL 2000 might just be what you need.

Play NCAA Football 2000 on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play NCAA Football 2000 on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
