you're all fucking babies! you all started with 5 or 6 star prestige teams! what about us who started off with 3 stars and worked out way up..... and then back down 
in other news, i'm kind of torn on my starting qb. i have josh nunes rated at 90 with 92 accuracy and 90 THP. then i have nottingham is an 82 overall with a 99 accuracy but 88 THP. the main difference is AWR, where nunes is in the 80's and nottingham is in the 60's.
how much does awr play in this game for qb's? i always assumed it was meaningless because YOU are controlling the guy, but the more i think of it the more i believe it has to do with some of the random "bad" throws i see from time to time.
one thing is for sure: no running behind the guards for me this year. fucking brutal guards on my team now. going to have to pass pass pass and a short passing game at that

Whoever made this schedule needs to off himself.
I match up against three human opponents, Luke/CB/FMT same guys as last year. No problem with playing these three, since they are rivalry games, but how about a couple of more humans.
Edit: Unless it isn't finished, in which case ignore me!

i haven't touched or seen the schedule yet, so no that is not final.
as i always say, if you have a matchup with someone you prefer (or you prefer NOT to play someone) then tell me within the next day or so.
if you don't tell me then i'm going to go with whatever matchups i feel like. tough titties!
I've never played OSU or Oregon in the regular season, wouldn't mind seeing one or both on the schedule. Again, I'm fine with anyone. One more thing, last season I had all my human opponents front loaded, 5 in a row or something like that. Whatever works.
Edit: If I set up my board now, will the CPU override it if I have assists on? I should turn them off just in case, but if anyone knows (Lone) I'd appreciate it.

I'd just turn them off, and set it manually yourself. Just don't put alot of faith it anything auto in an EA game.
Schedule wise, I've just played OSU and Utah once last season, guess could finish home and away there. Still haven't played Oregon or Texas, and I think I only played Michigan once, in the 1st season. I've played CB, FMT, LJ, and Az Home and Aways (and one time each against FMT and CB in bowl games)
That's pretty much the history of my H2H games, so really, open to whatever the Commish wants to do.

LJ unfortunately you see your human opponents front loaded because i'm restricted in every other conference. i can't move conference games or edit them, so everyone but you only has open games early in the year, and then the last couple weeks of the season.
i wish everyone was independent so i could easily sprinkle human opponents throughout the year, but no
also, i have CPU assist on and i don't see that they take people out, but like lonestar said i wouldn't trust it over the long haul. i only had it on for the end of the season because there wasn't anyone else i wanted.
some pretty good recruits for stanford. still no 5 star players, but i think people get too wrapped up in the star # rather than looking at the actual player. that is what i like about the recruiting: if i'm looking for a PARTICULAR type of player (for instance, a speed LB), i can look at what his #'s are and not have to worry about his star prestige. i found an OLB with an A- speed and B+ acceleration who is a 2 star. compare this with a 4 star LB who has a C in both and why would i want the 4 star if i'm just looking for a speed guy? true, the 4 star has better play recognition and tackling, but there is value even in some low star players

I'm done with my pre-season stuff, although it looks like there are a couple people not ready to advance.

alright, we've had all weekend. i'll be advancing in about a half hour or so.... got to take a shower and then finish up the scheduling stuff
p.s. alex looked good today. when he didn't look good was when that fat fuck of a lineman anthony davis let the panthers end go in on alex untouched for a sack and dislocated his left shoulder. fuck this team, i want singletary fired after we get back from our loss to the broncos

well i did the best i could guys. there must be some weird glitch with texas or they have requirements i dont know about because i would try to schedule games with them where both teams were under the max games and both teams had the week "OPEN", but it would not let me schedule them together (tried this with USC and Texas).
then, i would try to rearrange their other weeks, and there were some weeks against non conference opponents which i could NOT set to OPEN.... even though for every other team i can do that.
this made it difficult to get the requests for texas in, so sorry if you wanted to play texas and didn't
also, some of the other matchups i just couldn't work around. anyhow, enjoy whats there!

True story: For every 5 star player on this year's recruiting list, the top 5 teams on his list would include a combination of Alabama, Notre Dame, Michigan, and USC. That's some fucking easy button shit right there.

I got a 4* MLB to insta-commit. But that's it
I had a 4 star FS commit. Probably who you are talking about.
"Sadly" he was the only one, of my 8 or 9 "1st choice" guys to insta commit.
I'll let you guy's have free reign on WR's. Just leave some TE's for me.
Gotta be careful on these ATH's. There's a 5 star ATH here, David Irby. 6'1" 202 lb's C ratings across the speed/agility board, Subpar Catching, poor coverage marks, no throwing ability, no blocking shedding, poor defensive marks. Only appears to be good at blocking.
So, the worlds smallest Blocking Only Tight End/Offensive Lineman???
