No idea what you're talking about...
It's also worth noting that whoever wins the national championship between Az and BigAT will be the first member of the "Real League 1" online dynasties (the ones I've been running for the last THREE years now, despite outsider comments that suggest otherwise) to win two national titles.

I should have won the NC last year but you clowns couldn't beat Florida, even though you had 3 shots at them collectively.
Also, I can play right now AT.

I just pulled out the win by a FG with 3 seconds left. All I have to say is that the CPU tried everything to cheat me out of the win and I mean cheat... For example... I get in range for a 37yd FG to win the game. I call a TO with 3 seconds left. I line up, they call a TO, doing so with their remaining 2 TOs. The playcall screen comes up and the damn kicking bar is OVER the playcall screen. I can't hit A because it brings up the kicking help screen so I get a penalty and I get backed up to the 42 yard line. (Thinking about it now, I probably could have called a TO, but who knows if that would have worked) Luckily the kick was a straight shot or else my lousy kicker would have missed it. I line up and kick it through. Minnesota wins 24-23! =D

GG, AT. As usual it gave you HFA for the game and as usual it fucked me. I thought I had a good plan but all those fumbles were too much. And on top of that, I couldn't stop you on defense.

WTF CGQ you raise the CPU sliders or something?? LOL. They were busting my ass 21-7 I had to come back and barely won on the last play of the game stopping them on 4th and goal from the 3yard line. If not for two HUGE INT's by Jim Thorpe winner Erick Dargan LSU would have ran way with it.

Welcome to CPU SEC Football.
Judging from all the not so subtle complaining about the CPU/sliders/settings, I think we're about due for another round of voting on that. So, everybody answer the following questions whenever you get the chance.
1. Do you want to turn HFA off next season?
2. Do you want to change CPU games to the default All-American sliders?

Can't believe I had to make a one on one tackle at the 1 yard line to win the game.
GCQuinton said:
1. Undecided. It's a part of college football..not sure how I feel about it yet.
2. No. I wish we could use the All-American sliders my other dynasty uses, they adjusted the CPU and human sliders and it comes out very realistic football. I can find out what they are if you would like.
Well, my stance will be pretty simple.GCQuinton said:
1. I have a young QB, but I say keep it.
2. The only change I would make is the CPU attempting to run the ball more. They seem to get pass happy with me, though that is probably more due to their offensive scheme than the sliders themselves. I may win often than expected, but that's mainly due to my conference. I played WVU and hadn't it been for a couple lucky breaks in the 2nd half, I would have gotten whooped 31-14, if not worse. My defense gave up three TD's in their first three defensive series.

I'm fine with everything the way it is. I just hate that they implement HFA in bowl games/championship games.
GLENDALE (AP) - The Scarlet Knights of Rutgers managed to overcome an early 14-0 deficit as they rallied to defeat the Texas Tech Red Raiders 35-21 in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. The win gave Rutgers their second National Championship, the first team ever to accomplish this feat, at least since world governments unilaterally agreed to the Record Book Burning Protocol of 2009.
Texas Tech looked unstoppable on offense early on, easily scoring touchdowns with a balanced attack on their first two drives of the game. Some slight adjustments by Rutgers on defense (namely: deciding to pick fumbles up off the ground) would result in that being the last time the Texas Tech offense would score.
Rutgers tied the game at 14 going into the half on two Brandon Coleman touchdowns. Coleman, a Heisman trophy finalist, looked especially beastly on his second TD of the game where he shrugged off several tackles to battle his way into the endzone*.
The second half started off quite poorly for the Scarlet Knights though, with Texas Tech pounding RU QB Melvin Harrison on a failed play-action pass. The resulting duck was grabbed out of the air by a Texas Tech DE and promptly returned for a TD*. In addition, Brandon Coleman was knocked out for the remainder of the game with an abdominal tear. Rutgers managed to hold things together though and battled back for a 28-21 lead going into the 4th.
Texas Tech began the final quarter with a well put together drive that set them up with first and goal, ready to score the game-tying TD. Rutgers' defense stepped up huge however, and stopped the Red Raiders on the following four plays, forcing a turnover on downs.
Rutgers was in trouble though, backed up to their own 1 yard line with 3:40 left in the game. Thankfully, Marcus Thompson put a dagger into Texas Tech's hopes with an amazing 99-yard TD run to seal the game*. Thompson finished the day with 214 yards rushing and a touchdown.
* - Denotes highlight of the play is available in the game story.
GG Az.

1. Its fine, I guess
2. The only think that I would change is to lower the CPU Run blocking. It seems that whenever I play a running team I have many plays similar to Natural's highlight where the LSU RB has 4 lineman running with him.
Also, are we going to do the off-season the way we did last year (in game time) with everyone being on at a certain time and flying through it?

My team is really young. Check back in a season or two, as it should be a lot different by then.
I should be around tonight.KanZolo said:
On another note, I'll be going to Vegas late Thursday night and coming home late Sunday night. I'm sure you guys will plan to do the whole offseason this weekend, so I'm ok with the CPU handling everything for me. BUT if you want to wait for me to get back...

If you clowns can get your game out of the way tonight, maybe we can do it after.

If you can start it early enough. Even if we can't do all of it tonight, if all the games are done we can maybe get the first few things knocked out? First deadline being noon tomorrow and second one being maybe 6pm? Then we can do the real stuff at 7pm or something? Just a thought.

Tonight works best for me, tomorrow night I have plans.
Going by just overall you are correct but going player by player I would still take your team over his because of more overall team speed. His starting RB is 90+ but is a bit slow for my offense. Like anything it's all about getting quality players that fit how you play.

Speed is great, and that's how I started off so fast. You know what's not great? Fumbling the ball. You can have all the speed in the world (which is what I recruit), but when they can't hold onto it, it doesn't matter. Believe me, and I'm sure AT would agree, the reason I lost the game was my players (including my RB who had two lost fumbles himself) not holding on to the ball. Nothing I can do about that, since the game engine decides when I drop the ball. They weren't even hard hits. A guy would do a routine tackle and the ball would pop out.

That sucks but at least NCAA does give you some control over the amount of fumbles and drops unlike Madden.

MWS Natural said:
Switching to conservative negates the only advantage I have, which is speed. But I suppose you are right.
I was wondering during our game if all of the fumbles, at least the ones from your running back, was as a result of having a true freshman in there. At least I seem to remember you saying at some point during the season you were using a true freshman as RB. What is his carry rating?

BigAT said:
No, that guy is paper mache and has been injured for most of the season. My promise to him that he would be a freshman all-american was broken because his brittle ass couldn't keep itself on the field. It was my redshirt sophomore playing the game. Still, he's still and underclassman so I'm sure that contributed.
His carry rating is a 68 btw

No it wasn't. He made it as a returner
BigAT said:
I agree with this because both of my freshman HB's have coughed it up in big games this year. I've been lucky to get most of them back but I do think there is a correlation between fumbles/drops and freshmen in big games.

That's hilarious since I'm pretty sure he did not have more than 10 returns all season. Although one was for a touchdown.

I was telling BP the other day that it doesn't take much to make the freshman all-american team. If a freshman starts he will most likely make it. My DE made it last year and he only had 3 sacks lol. Both of my RB's made it this year when it slows down at work today there may be an NSN article incomingAzwethinkweiz said:

From memory BOTH of your DT's made it and I think your RB did. Striker could probably tell you, I think he is at home right now. I think my DT not making 1st or 2nd team was a huge snub because he had just as many tackles and sacks as they guys that did. Oh well he was only Junior so there is always next year.mik said:
