Miami over NC State, 35-17.

The Wolfpack had a good first drive and then it all kinda went to poo poo with some crucial red zone picks. Dio, you seem to really struggle against man, yet you can pick apart my zone. What's that about?

Also, lost my stud HB for half the season so there goes my hopes of winning the Heisman.

I was pretty rusty this game and it definitely showed. You played a great game and were tearing me up. I make bad reads against man because I don't have receivers who can get separation.

What an absurd game

UNC over GT 41-10 in the weirdest game I've ever seen. Cletus blocked a FG which I've never seen in any iteration. I somehow fumbled on a forward pass that my lineman caught midair. Oh yeah and cletus fumbled 6 times. Two of those were "laterals" performed right after he picked me off, not sure why that happened. I did have aggressive tackling on since that's the only way I've found to beat you but you kept fumbling on offence even when I turned it back to normal. And fumbling 6 times sucks but to lose all of them? I think EA Bullshit didn't want you to win.

I was getting aggravated as hell at the game there! The laterals after picks happen if I'm trying to switch to the closest defender and strip the ball, but he has already made the pick before my commands get registered. It used to happen more often to me, then I didn't have it happen forever, and of course now it just happened twice in one game. I usually can tell if the player is in position to make a pick and would be hitting the catch button instead, but when it's a quick throw I don't always realize I have any defender in position for a pick.

And man the other fumbles were killers too. That one on my QB run was my fault though - I knew I should have just run it out of bounds. But the others were nuts. That one on the screen pass - I was surprised it wasn't reviewed as being an incomplete pass. Maybe I should have challenged it.

That was only my 2nd blocked XP ever in NCAA, the other was against a CPU opponent though. I was so happy when it happened because it kept me just 2 TDs down, but that was the last of any good luck I had!

GG!

That one was a shocker. I don't think the ref makes "virtual" mistakes in user games though, I don't think a challenge ever is successful. Not sure I've had any success against the CPU either, I just wait for the booth to request a review.

Oh I forgot to add how you got completely screwed by the penalties, and some real costly BS ones too.

I've definitely had some challenges that worked out, but I'm not sure it would have worked in this case - I think the challenge would have been "spot of the ball" and not "completed pass" which would have just checked where you landed with the ball after recovering.

Yes, yes, that was definitely one of my worst games since I've become a decent player. Just all-around bad luck including those penalties (that one late hit was definitely not late, I dove before the ball was out of the QB's hands I'm sure of it!). You definitely played tough and deserved the win, I think even if I hadn't had those stupid interception-to-fumbles it would probably have only resulted in me being a TD closer in the final score. It's hard to play this offensive playbook when your opponent is keen to it - the CPU is much easier to pull it off with. :)

And man, my QB was #1 in the Heisman race going into this week!
