You can set your board online I believe.
BTW Nightz and Drizz, service academies don't redshirt players in real life (if you didn't already know that), but the game will probably do it for some of your players anyway like it did mine. Just a heads up in case you guys were trying to go about that somewhat realistically.
I don't think they really recruit athletes in real life either. I thought we were doing our own thing in this dynasty, realistic went out the window long ago!!!!
Forget realistic, I'm sending a bunch of kids to repeat bootcamp!
One of my best friends played at West Point. They do recruit. There's just a whole lotta extra stuff that goes with it being at one of those schools, naturally, so it's a bit different than traditional recruiting.
But yeah, for this game that's practically out the window. Just sayin'!
And after that game's another bye!
Yep I got to imagine they recruit some what but more restricted to real exceptional students, willing to serve the country first rather than attempting playing professional sports. Ex. David Robinson. That's pretty cool your buddy played there

AT, what's your availability look like?
That was a GG. Your ko fumble was the real stinker. The fumble on the punt was fortunate for me, the kicking meter didn't stop where I wanted it to and not at all for that matter
You seem to have athletic skill players. I was pleased with mine. Good luck the rest of the way

Well my D played well (3 picks with one scoring the only td), Kicker was 1/3, QB was 7/20 with 3 picks, 25% RZP :X. Luckily my RB had over 100 yards and let me run out the clock at the end. Real problem was the turnovers. Need to figure out this team offensively, not gonna be playing bowling green every week. Could've just been the pouring down rain though..
edit:
So I have somehow failed the "Win 75% of your conference games each season" goal. How? Haven't even played a conference game yet.

Yeah for some reason I already have 2 goals accomplished and 1 failed. I think it counted last season's results in the equation.
Off to a good start. Turned Navy into a pro style offense. First play from scrimmage was a 73 yard run for a TD by my sophomore HB. Too bad he got hurt in the third quarter because he would definitely have gone for 200+ in that game. Looking forward to the next game!

bye week in week 1!? drats
It was either that or lose your game against Striker in Week 15. Decisions had to be made! The only person I intentionally gave a bye in Week 1 to was mik because I wasn't sure about his power situation at the time when I was setting everything.

GG, AT. Sorry for injuring your QB for the whole season and your backup for the game!
Ugh, my starting quarterback went down after his second pass attempt of the game, knocked out for 8 weeks. My backup quarterback didn't get such a lengthy time in the game, he was knocked out for the entire game without attempting a single pass attempt. Two Rutgers pass attempts for the game, two quarterbacks knocked out...
That left me with...nothing. I had to go and burn the redshirt on my 3-star, true freshman QB and use him for the remaining three quarters of the game. Needless to say, this made me incredibly predictable on offense and fairly easy to shut down.
My defense played well for a time, but I couldn't expect them to shut down the shotgun running scheme for four quarters, it's impossible. Eventually they fell apart and gave up some big plays, letting the game slip away.
GG Az, what a rough way to start the season.

Weeknights after about 8 eastern are usually golden.
YES! I posted on my phone earlier otherwise I would have taken care of this. I'm glad you did. I don't doubt AT will bounce back and will be a great challenge for me.Had to post it... lol.
Vegas set the line Rutgers -6.5

He's probably with Striker who has been missing as well
Looks like they're playing now. Judging from the Madden thread, Striker hasn't been around most of the day.
