I lull people into a false sense of security by throwing incomplete passes and then bam! Eemeril Lagasse style deep pass complete for a td!

I dropped two for sure int's, madden skills with the Y button didn't help :\ The rushing game is good, you were killing me with it. You were kinda rusty on the option plays though.

 

[LukeSmith]

Playing NCAA I feel like Pheenix feels playing Madden. I don't know if the RichRod spread is going to work for me. I am going to have to recruit a pocket passer and switch to an NFL style offense.

Yea, one of the dropped INTs was the result of me trying to throw in anticipation, which doesn't work. This is like the first NCAA game I've played in years, so I'm no Option savant, the time you had my QB head over heels and I still tossed it out was hilarious though, I could see much rage coming from option plays in the Dynasty.

Disconnect #1!

That play was insane, couple of plays by in that game had me shaking my head.

Players who get the option play down are going to wreck shit up.

Once I recruit 4-5 star players to UH on defense we will be in good position!

AND wtf why does option not work for me

Do you just suck at it? You pressing the right button

The Cougs O is sweet, their D not so much.

You got to wait at the right time and press the left trigger button. Kinda hold it down and run and then let go of the button. At least that's how I was doing it.

No I can't and never will be able to again it seems. I went into the NBA thread just now to see if he would change it. Of course I have to talk shit to get it done.

Match #2 was uggggly. It was a pure Gene Stallings type score of 7-0. There's a huge AI jump between Varisty and All American. Not doing too well with McElroy, his accuracy seems to be all over the place.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

possibly the worst offensive game of football i have ever seen against lonestar. he won 7-0 late in the 4th on an outside run. if you take away that 50 yarder, mr. 99 or whatever that heisman backs name is had less than 2 ypc. and then of course when i possibly consider to sniff the redzone FUMBLEEEEEE on the same play. i'll make you a contender stanford!

FMT, I can make you feel better with a W.

Want to scrim?

There already are a contender

Having 2 or 3 wide open deep balls, only for McElroy to throw it 20 yards away from the WR...

I did like that Cal game, Boom 14-0 :/

It's late, and I'd like another game, but I probably shouldn't.

 

[Matrix]

Damn it all to hell.

Ok cool.

Lone, you know you want an easy W!

I'll use Marshall, and they got the Pistol and other spread like options for it. But I'm more of a pocket guy and like my WR's kind of big. I'll be recruiting closely.

Game is ace!

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

the game is a refreshing change from madden.... in that defense is so overpowered. if you play against one of the higher tier teams, their LB's and CB's are basically running your receivers routes before they run them. i was playing lonestar and i had my TE running an out late. well to start, the LB was lined up far inside (to where if my TE was running a slant or an in, he would be completely shut down). JUST as my TE is about to make his break, the freaking LB jets to the OTHER side of him, leaving the route useless or i run the risk of a pick.

it doesn't happen every down but the D is ruthless in this game. and don't bother spamming the flats either, that shit is done unless there is a massive blitz or the LB/CB/S is on the opposite side of the RB and can't get there

Yeah, wasn't sure what I was supposed to do after a bit. The Running was "more open" than against that Stanford D.

Alabama's D...it's not fair.

Which matches real life...well...last years .

But I'm LOVING the amount of choices in the playbooks. I know there's a shitload more when going to spreads, and triple options. Even Auburn's goofy offense is in there.

But loving the Pistol and wildcat options in Alabama's single back. Plus, the shotgun with the 2 WR's to one side, and 2 TE's on the other. Runs that little toss play (what scored the TD against FMT). That's straight out of the South Carolina game last year @ 1:20

 

[Matrix]

Cougs D isn't known for jack shit, I wasn't shocked that you ran all over me. I felt bad because the game kept knocking you for being unsportsmanlike :lol

I ran outside on 3rd down, got a first down and stopped (would have been a TD)

BOOM -75 Sportsman points. :lol

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

stanford has a pretty good D-line and an impact LB so I can usually contain runs. secondary isn't bad either.

stanfords problem (or my problem i guess) is that they have SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW receivers. i can't get any separation unless it's on a PA fake and the CB just completely bites on it. they are a great running team but then people just start stacking the line like a motherfucker

lol gots to wake up early tomorrow! plus you turned your back on forcier!

p.s. can't believe i blew that fg! that game was destined for OT. and actually if stanfords qb didn't have a fucking noodle arm i had that dude wide open for a TD but you got over there too fast (should've actually been picked with how fast you got there!) garbo!

Yep, it was real crappy. It's like their shipping department has access to nothing but leftover brown paper bags from supermarkets.

I played CB last night (who uses USC) and I was initially concerned about how overpowered you said the DBs where when you played him. I found that for the most part if you can stay in the pocket or buy yourself a little bit of time you should be ok.

Besides some dumb throws that were my fault (which resulted in INTs) I was still able to hit my guy against in some tight windows against his star CB. You made it sound like it was panic city with the DBs the way you were talking after your match:lol

is it just me or is the CPU Pass rush on Heisman (atleast in Road to glory) on some unreal shit

Play a game against Alabama and see how you do.

I used them in a game for some achievements. If Lone's gameplan consists of anything besides dropping back and tapping whatever button Julio Jones is, he's making it more complex than he needs to. I didn't even have to use Ingram, who is a beast just by himself.

My game against FMT (as Stanford), Julio was open on some deep PA passes. It's that McElroy can miss him.

Still learning some of the new functions of the running game. Just read up today on the Right Stick functions, can't wait to try that out in more detail.

My game against Matrix as Houston... :/ I think I threw the ball 6 times. Ran it about 18 times with Ingram for 200 some odd yards.

 

[LosDaddie]

Defense is always a beast when a new NCAA game comes out. It always takes me about 8 games to adjust

Like I said, it was falsely claimed as this years version by the website.

Fumblina is this years.



I think BigAT could be onto something

Haven't seen that catch animation before.

From the talk of USC being impossible to throw against, I'm starting to think it would be more fun if everyone had weak teams and built them up. There has to be a reason the other guys do it that way.

 

[LosDaddie]

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but whatever....

Is there an XBL gamertag for this game so that we meet up with other GAFers? You know, like there is for most MP games on GAF?

We've never used that trick.

I have most of "Football game" GAF on friends list. Figure that's what most of us are doing.
