LOL, that guy ended up having to play safety due to an injury and he snags POTW, hes my 5th string CB
haha, well...
good thing is, I finished this week up. Bad news is, I tried Fable 2 afterwards, and I'm pretty sure I've got the RROD. Happened once, sometimes it'll play for a bit, the the beep, and frozen again. I'll try again tomorrow. I'll probably just get a new model, since this thing is a launch model. Maybe after I get a new one, I'll see about getting a coffin box for the old one.

I still think POTW should get priority in user v user games. Ben Tate had 200+ total yds and 4 TDs against a legitimate D. It's not the same when someone gets a ton of yds by exploiting the AI with a quick RB.
Hell...Stafford had 7 touchdown passes and 1 running! Sure, 3 of those passes were after I starting simming the second half. How did the game decide to NOT have him have POTW...
Infractions...? I simmed the entire 2nd half. I put in the 2nd string, but it put back in the first.

You shouldn't have picked a super team
I almost wish that we all would've picked MAC/WAC teams or something...

it is rewarding when you beat or at least have a really close game with a SEC or PAC-10 or ACC team with a MAC school.

That's what I had hoped prior to the first season beginning... no top 25 teams picks. Then the Mountain schools and MAC schools, along with some ACC ones, get some love and there's some competitiveness along with building a strong school, instead of being a powerhouse built into an even stronger one.
I thought about moving to Louisiana Tech.

Quinton...is there any way to slightly move around the deadlines. My schedule is more or less fixed (out of town Mon-Wed night) so I'm usually forced to fit in a game the night I get back home, which is tough when I have to spread my love to my wife, dogs, new games, and The Office. Is there any way to maybe have Tuesday and Friday deadlines or something similar?
Also, on another note, what am I doing wrong with recruiting? I start out having 15 5-star players that I'm first or second choice for. I give them lots of love every week and A-A+ visits but I still lose most of them. I think I only got 2-3 5-stars this year. I'm losing almost all of the guys I'm 2nd for and most of the ones I'm 1st for!!! It's very, very frustrating, especially since Florida and Georgia are usually the ones stealing them.
And on a last note, what are the chances of us all being forced to change jobs in the future, taking over unranked non-BCS teams? I think it would be fun. I always choose Auburn no matter where they're ranked because they're my alma mater, but I'd like to see how well guys like Ando could succeed with subpar talent (hint: I'm sure he'll do fine). Maybe the coaches on the highest-rated teams have to take the biggest ratings cut when moving to a new team, or we could at least cap the overall team rating. Just a thought to mix it up down the line. It's no fun to watch Ando's Gators win it all every year :/

1. I took note of that when you came back on the boards and mentioned it earlier. I guess once this seasons done we can all re-assess our schedules and come up with an updated deadline schedule.
2. I can't offer much on that one since I'm Duke right now, but even when I did play as powerhouse schools in the last two NCAA games I never landed more than an average of 4 5 star players. Gotta spread the love out to the 4 and 3 stars!
3. Read the OP on this one, but I think I emailed you that too when the season started about the coaching changes. I'm not gonna force anyone to give up their teams, but there's a system in place if you wanna move up or down.
I wouldn't mind if everybody took the lower team approach and forced things to get competitive (not just between users, but also the CPU). Teams from the MAC, WAC, Conference USA, few from Big East, and the Sun Belt, for example. If Ando wants North Texas, that's great. He's a good player so I'm sure he'll be competitive with them. Surely he won't score 60 or 70, I assume, but that's for the better.
As I said before, I have thought about switching to LA Tech or some school with 2 stars or so.
In my offline Dynasty, I'm using Western Michigan. I am hoping to get a BCS Conference Invite soon.

I used Kent St. in my offline dynasty and got a invite into the Big Ten, dominated the big ten for a few years and now i'm rebuilding Arizona St. into a Pac-10 powerhouse. Though i've been playing fable too much to play my offline dynasty so i better practice before next seasons human games come around.

Yes we know we were talking exclusively about our offline dynasties. And im not changing this year i actually might be getting a 4 star FS and a 4 star WR so im going to have a few other options on offense.
But if anyone would like to join me in the MAC Bowling Green or Miami of Ohio or even Akron wouldn't be a bad choice.
