good game man, could have been worse
you made me work for sure. I too hate defense in this game. though its much easier with this Oregon team than my Vandy squad in the other OD.
Thanks for getting this in tonight. next up is Nick and his SMU squad then Florida.

Just hope I didn't lose any guys to injury, that's what I fear the most about simmed games.
Offense isn't good enough to have won the title this year anyways, next year is the year I hope to make my run. I'll lose Yeldon but I'll be a much better balanced offense.
I think an investigation is in order for Florida's recruiting practices

Thanks for the schedule Pete.
i had come to grips with losing pretty early.
i've found a set of sliders that makes the game play like prev years. you are able to make plays but you can also be shredded. its got me interested in playing again
Care to share them? I've been looking for good ones for next season (after OS puts out the new rosters)

Why does everyone seem to hate the default sliders for this game? Granted the cpu passing accuracy is a high, but I kinda like the challenge of it, cpu games are tough sometimes which is nice I think.

I dont mind the sliders . . . but what I can't stand is to have a CPU QB throw the ball literally right before they get hit, on a 3rd and forever, and complete the pass for a 1st down. Not sure if I look this % up, but I bet I am near the bottom in 3rd down stops.
I used to get pissed at it, but at this point, I have kind of come to expect it.
We probably pull off just as many of those 3rd down plays as the computer does, we just don't realize it because they are going in our favor instead of against us.

Or throw it directly sideways, out of bounds, nowhere near a wideout, just as you get ready to sack them, and there's never an intentional grounding penalty. I wish that penalty was at 100% for our OD, it is for me online (both for me and CPU) but it still doesn't get called as much as it should on them. You do it online, though....flag every time.

Ya, I agree with this, too. When my blitz gets through and they throw the ball straight to the sidelines where no WR is anywhere around . . . I always yell "THROW THE DAMN FLAG" . . . but for some reason they never do
Sloppy offense for the Noles in this one. A couple sacks were the OL just didn't block, 3 dropped 3rd down passes in the 1st quarter, a fumble by a WR in the Noles own redzone, and a pick 6 thrown by Jameis. Needless to say this is not the offense from the past two seasons. On the plus side the "Crab hands" Winston did run the ball very well, topping 100 yards for the 1st time, and the lack of a true start RB has not proven to be an issue as the 3 man rotation of Freeman, Pender, and Green has performed well. The defense played as expected once again, but the ratio of interceptions/passes deflected was 1/6, and that will lose you a user game real fast. With Clemson no longer the challenge they once were the Noles are thrilled to see coach Nick take over the Canes, pumping new blood into the schools rivalry.

I actually have that slider set high, not 100% high, but high nonetheless. Still...never called.

And it never fails....the next play they'll hit a huge pass play and keep marching.

i have to go out and get dominos (yum), then ill switch teams so Tfan can beat up on SMU. be gentle, they were a nice group of kids but I need the thugs in Miami
It was a W, but man, their QB couldn't miss and it was always huge gains. I'm afraid Notre Dames defense has grown soft. To many years of playing a bush league schedule.
