yea, i can take care of it in just a few actually.

E: R2A

Ran for like 200 yards and 4 TDs with my QB, went 6/14 for a pick in a torrential downpour where everything was dropped, heh. I'm talking the frustrating kind of poo poo where the WR comes down with it, secures it, then it just plops out like a greased pig

Tight Ends in this game are just like Madden: always open on vertical routes and slants. Guaranteed almost everytime and the only real good way to shut that down is to be really good at usering a fast LB or a safety to jump tbeir route.

Its even worse in Madden 15.

If we can't work it out by then, I'm fine going AP or taking a sim. I know my schedule is a large impediment

I'm gonna try my hardest to get out of here early. I have a few deliverables I'd need to wrap up so I can head into the weekend and not bring my laptop with. If I can't make your window, we should just let the EA gods figure it out because neither of us were easily available when we each posted, and that's probably the most fair solution.

I won't be home till about 5/8 PST. Tried to get out of here early but thems the breaks; I get home in an hour, and I have to hit the gym before it closes. Even if I got on when I got home, it's already too late.

What is your weekend availability? If it's bad, lets just take the sim.

Busy week for user games so let's aim for Sunday night advance at the soonest. Also, Sly, we'd be grateful if you knocked off Undefeated #3 Miami.

Dubious, what is your availability like?

Hooray a user game. Friday, anytime during the day is our best bet; i took the day off.

I'm actually 5 hours ahead of the east coast (Usually six once we start DST this weekend) so except in rare circumstances I get my user games in on the weekend. I'm good to go 1-4PM Eastern weekdays, otherwise Saturday or Sunday morning or early afternoon works best for me.

Alright. We will have to do saturday morning then, i have no ability to be free 1-4 est during the week.

GG, I stole that game at the end with the punch ball tackle being clutch and actually working.

Couldn't run for poo poo against you and that safety on that sack after I couldn't convert the 4th and inches was probably the margin.

Probably the lowest scoring game of NCAA I've ever played.

My XBL expires on May 1st and I wont be renewing it, so i'm AP after that. Had some fun games but losing steam on internet football in general right now, and paying for XBL just to get in a user game every few weeks isn't good value.

Let's hope EA can work something out with the NCAA and we can get games on next gen in the future.
