Omg this SCe squad is pretty weak lol. It'll take a couple seasons to reach GA/Miami status.

Please, I beg of you. Leave the game speed at normal. The ACC feels like a loving arcade game (Blitz).

That run-game with Georgia was unreal lol. Gurley might have been a bit slower (94 SPD compared to Marshall's 99) but he was easily the better back. I really enjoyed the mobility of LeMay in that offense the most. I used to be a pocket passer but you guys have gotten good at rushing with the DL, and recruiting good Olinemen has been a pain. Therefore I've fully adopted the Russell Wilson run-and-gun style. He was the reason I gave Kancho some fits a few years ago, and I've slowly adopted that style ever since.

I am officially scared of Vanderbilt with a 28-0 win over CPU Ole Miss, 310 rushing yards, and no turnovers.

edit - Oh, and I just saw JB's score and total rushing yards.

Yea but before that I was facing DBs with rocket boots. I still threw 3 picks in the process also.

I will shift it back down to AA. I agree about the roster and tried to make some changes to it but it didn't take

I hope I stick around look enough to see this team grow and reach it's potential.

Adjusting actual stats has to happen during the offseason more or less (although I think you can still change your teams stats). And yeah thanks man.

IMO if we're even gonna consider adjusting stats then we should find another roster and start over while we're here in the beginning. It'll be difficult to do so (logically) once guys start progressing and what not.

I have no problem starting Week 1 over because it's only been once CPU game. Of course this is Dio's show though.

That seems much more complicated than just restarting with better rosters, but meh.

I'll keep balling out regardless.

E: If we stick with these rosters then I'll pass on the addition of points and just deal with it.

The problem is that there are a lot of other rosters with serious issues too and despite the low ratings of some key players, this roster is accurate and very good otherwise. With this method I can just make 20 mins worth of roster edits rather than making people replay games or me having go reset schedules again

I understand man. Like I said I'm ready to rock regardless.

Changing the difficulty to AA will help so I vote to leave as is if we're going to continue with these rosters.

GA downs USCe 35-28 in a game that was pretty close and crazy.

My team could've easily rolled over and played dead after my starting QB got hurt in the first quarter (out for 8 weeks), but I was able to make some things happen. I even had the lead going into the second half. The events that followed can really be attributed to either EA magic or team ratings. Gurley became unstoppable in the second half and converted literally every short yardage run for a first down. There was a play midway in the 4th on 3rd down in which he broke two tackles to get the first. I would've been there to at least slow him if it wasn't for the horrible lag that popped up late in the game. I think the biggest heartbreaker though was that TD drop by my WR on 4th down. He had clearly beaten his guy and just DROPPED it.

Venom called a nice offensive game and ran really well. Welcome to the dynasty, bud.

E: Actually Venom played well offensively overall. There was nifty catch-and-run he had that made the score even harder to reach.

Hey Nick, Joe, Weenis, or JCrowe!

We're having a glitch with the CPU-controlled Oregon team in our B1G/PAC-12 league and could use some assistance. We'd like one of you to join the league as Oregon, switch their playbook back to Oregon under the "Coach Philosophy" page, and then quit the dynasty. The custom playbook they've been using has caused some serious glitches that has resulted in a simmed loss for Dio :(

Additionally, feel free to join us as another team in the B1G if you'd like, but Oregon would be off limits this season as they were only scheduled for one user game (which has already passed).

Could one of you help us out with this? If so I can shoot you an invite to that league.

USCe over Vandy 38-21.

Late game heroics got Vandy a couple of TDs, but it was a lost cause at halftime. Not to mention Vandy sucks and got trampled by my HBs.

SCe over Mizzou 45-38. Not really sure what to say other than Wreckus kinda torched me a few times. Even on plays where I felt I was exactly where I needed to be there seemed to be holes in coverage. Impressively, you overcame a 14pt deficit in the span of like 3mins.

GG.

Ready when you are Dio.

E: Another defense-optional nail-biter that resulted in a tough loss. My safety skills have clearly diminished as I gave up 2-3 TDs. My team had trouble tackling as Dreskel ran all over me in the first half.

Dio, we're still homies but that was a pretty cowardly 4th & 5 attempt on your own 36 with a tied game. Still - I had a chance to win or tie the game. That 2pt play always leaves a guy wide open, but the last time I tried it the slot WR dropped the ball. In this case the QB made a terrible pass to lose the game.

GG. I need Wreckus and Venom to play their game as it will determine whether or not I make it into the SECCG.

Florida over USCe 49-48
