Dubious, would you like to try and play our game tonight?

With Madden out I'll get our game in tonight but I'm likely gonna drop a couple NCAA leagues, there's only so much time for internet football before the fiancee wants to strangle me with my controller cord, and doing 5 leagues is quite honestly too much in that category.

I'll let you know when I can play tonight.

E: can you play day game tomorrow? I'm a bad employee and burned PTO to play internet football

Tomorrow is up in the air. I'm off Fri-Sat though.

And gently caress that. As hard as we with in this country you probably deserved that time off.

Just an FYI I'll be out of town Friday until Wednesday. I'm hoping things will be a little slow around Labor Day and with all the real football going on.

Sorry for all the posts, and subsequent rushed update.

We're at Week 8!

Wreckus vs Dio
Myself vs my nemesis (ZSB)

Piper, Cletus, and Dubious have CPU games. If I haven't mentioned you then you have a bye.

We're not going to advance before next Friday unless all games are finished before then.

Oh what the gently caress I paused my CPU game overnight to finish it this morning, then I see they released some XBL update that I was required to install before I could sign back in. So my game results got lost. I'll have to replay tonight. I had a really good game too. :(

Once again my biggest concern with this team shows its true colors. After playing very potent in our first two attempts to play this game, my defense fails to collect a single sack or turnover in the third and final bout. The Cornhuskers had no answer for OSU's...passing attack?

OSU over Nebraska 49-28. Btw, my star QB is now out for 3 weeks.

With that aside we've advanced!

User Matchups:
#16 Mich St (Dio) @ Wisconsin (dubious)
#9 Nebraska (myself) @ #2 Michigan (Cletus)
Penn State (Wreckus) @ #10 UCLA (AF)
#12 USC (Sly) @ #1 tOSU (ZSB)

CPU Games:
NWU (Piper)

Looks like we're all going through a gauntlet of sorts. Cletus, we can play now if you want.

Yeah passing game did come through in that game, felt like you wanted to stack the box and I really needed to pass on early downs. Once I hit a couple deep passes, just wanted to keep pressing that instead of getting 2 yards on the ground. Then the defense did just enough, was surprised you didn't just get rid of the ball a bit more often on roll outs.

Sly - Got time tomorrow?

I tried to throw the ball away on that last awful sack but it didn't take.

Btw, we have an SEC matchup as well. If you're free we can play it now. I'm trying to free up my time during the week.

I'll be able to play after the Hokie game tonight, but at this point too close to kick. Just want to see those glorious Buckeye tears.

That was a really rough first half for me, after what was feeling like a hot start for my QB.

I remember you telling me in another dynasty that you'd force me to throw picks by shutting down my running game, feels like it's been a long time since I'd played against you though so I forgot what I was in for. I wasn't prepared to not be able to rely on my HB for much. Great defensive game on your part.

At least I still have this insane recruiting class that keeps getting better.

John Brown

You are a recruiting hack.

After last season's ACC free fall my DB skills have been doing the same. I once was able to scan the whole field and see everything, but that's been very hard to do lately. Just before we played I got smashed on by ZSB because I couldn't make a play on the ball.

On top of that, I consistently blitz 5 guys but get pretty much no pressure. So I was amazed to see you running for your life back there.

I will have to live with this title since I am too cheap to buy a new one.
I wish solid wins counted double (not actually as usually I am the whoopee), someone still needs to do me a solid and give Z another loss...and then not turn around and beat me *cough AF *cough
