I just beat a 99 OVR team with a 88 OVR team... Go me.

GG Sly. I started shifting my safeties over to Lee's side of the field and the big plays stopped. Sly's first two drives ended in a 55 yard Lee TD and a 75 yard Lee TD. Once I started keying on Lee I was able to get a 2 score lead that I was able to hold onto.

And poo poo... The game didn't register. My xbox froze when it went final. It was NU 35 USC 21. I'm gonna struggle to beat CPU USC now.

I didn't have time to post about it yesterday but AF beat me somewhat handily. I was down only 10 going into the 4th quarter and drove into the red zone with roughly 3 minutes left but shanked a make-able FG attempt. So being down 2 scores with only 3 minutes left I run-committed my D and AF threw a long TD bomb and the game was over.

My defense again played well but my offense simply wasn't there. I thrive on short passes to my RBs but AF's linebackers were constantly in the right position to stop those. I have a very limited vertical passing game and having to rely on that resulted in alot of incompletes and drops.

woahhhhhh I just stole a game.

Dubious thoroughly dominates the first half and its 27-10 Wisco at halftime. In my first drive of the 2nd half I throw a INT in the red zone and say to myself, "OK, after Dubious scores here I'll just turn on kill clock, run up the gut and concede".

Well my defense comes alive and the next thing I know I score 21 unanswered and its 31-27 Northwestern with one minute left. Of course, my prevent defense is awful and Dub drives down the field and throws a TD with :22 left. I return the kickoff to midfield and on the next play throw a flag route and Dub misses a tackle along the sidelines and my WR takes off for a TD with :08 left. A squib and batted down Hail Mary later I've come back to win from a 3-score 2nd half deficit and my dreams of a B1G title game appearance are still alive.

Holy poo poo. Great game, Dubious. You will get me back in the Madden league very soon.

Piper what happened?!? C'mon AF...you can do it!

I scored a potentially-game-tying TD with 20 seconds left but went for a 2pt conversion for the win. Didn't convert. The fact that I was even in a close game with a woefully under-matched team is satisfaction enough for me.

I feel like I've lost my last 10 games to JB. Well, that streak is now broken. Wildcats 37 - Huskers 35.

With my 90 OVR team I've defeated USC and Nebraska while losing to UM and OSU by a combined 4 points. If I bothered to recruit I'd be drat tough to beat.

Well goons, it's been a fun ride but I'm retiring from NCAA. I play too much PS4 to justify doing these leagues anymore. This dynasty was a fun challenge for me using a lower-prestige team which also happened to be my alma mater. I never realistically thought I'd compete for division titles, I just wanted to ruin some peoples seasons with upsets. Beating USC this season was especially rewarding.

If any of you ever end up on PS4 my PSN handle is: nasty-niss. I also have a XBone which is collecting dust nicely. I'm actually fairly optimistic that we'll get more NCAA games in a few years once they figure out the legal bullshit. When there's money to be made, EA will figure out a way. I hope you guys keep these dynasties going for years to come.
