Twisted OD - Y6 WEEK 7 (12/29 11:59 pm est)

[Wasted Memory]

Only Jason left to play this week........

My guess is with OOTP starting back this week we won't see much of him.

I tried on Wed night and again tonight to get into the OD, and it is not letting me. Tonight it gave me some stuff saying I needed to renew Season Ticket, and after that it kept telling me "the dynasty cannot be continued at this time" or that the EA servers were unavailable. Plus the PS3 kept not wanting to sign into the PSN, I kept getting DNS errors for quite a while.

I've been trying for over an hour tonight, I'm about to just give up.

EDIT: Finally got in, won the game, took 10 tries to get it to upload to the server. Gotta love these servers

Alabama overcomes four first-quarter turnovers (punt return fumble, fumble on our first offensive play, another punt return fumble, and an interception) and wins 66-36 thanks to Ole Miss continually having their safeties about 8 yards off the line and trying to press cover Robert Foster. He had touchdown catches of 29, 84, 62, and 34 yards en route to a 7 catch, 234 yard, four touchdown performance that surely will notch him POTW honors. TJ Yeldon bounced back from a so-so effort with a 135 yds and 3 touchdowns against a very aggressive Rebels defense. Cooper Bateman overcame his pick in the first quarter to throw for 450 yards and 5 touchdowns, and even had over 100 yds rushing thanks to a 74 yard run where he came up one yard shy of scoring a touchdown. The defense sealed the win with a scoop-and-score off a strip sack, with just over two minutes to go.

QB accuracy: 15
Pass Blocking: 5
WR Catching: 100
RB Ability: 45
Run Blocking: 25
Pass Coverage: 65
Interceptions: 100
Rush Defense: 0

The rest are at the usual 50. Game speed is normal(in mine) and set the speed threshold to 0.

i like these, although it may prove to be that defense is too strong, but i feel like they can be tweaked a bit if need be to find something everyone is happy with.

I'll advance us this evening after I put these sliders in place.

66-36...

I don't think the scoop and score sealed the win.

I'm assuming this is what you're talking about?

Speaking of this.....I kinda wish I'd stayed away from the boxscore of the sim game vs OSU.

I had a three point lead after a FG with about 5 min to go....and then Ohio State scored a TD with 2:20 to, then another one about a minute later on a fumble recovery touchdown, and then a third TD less than a minute after that on a short touchdown pass. We lost by 18 but we were winning with 2 and a half minutes to go....we absolutely imploded.

I'm all for the challenge, just didn't expect us to be changing mid season. But I am in no way opposed to it.

And I totally missed some of the earlier post you had made , that's what I get for reading it on my phone at work.

Damn, nick just called us slow....

New sliders.....good week to be on a bye

[uf83198]

Tfan, Im around all weekend. Just let me know when you're available.

[fsupenguin]

FYI, I leave town Monday and will return Friday evening. So will I miss 1 or 2 advances?

One I believe.

[fsupenguin]

Well it is noticeable that the fast players are faster now, you can do a lot more with a little space with a WR or RB. I forced the ball down the field a bit, and only got picked once, while the cpu did it frequently, and well.......................my 4th CB had 5 interceptions. He is a freak at 6'5" with great speed, but he is now a legit shutdown DB with these sliders. Might have to move him into the starting lineup.

vs Maryland

62-3

It was tied 3-3 till the closing seconds of the 1st quarter, then the Noles scored the games next 59 points. 7 different Noles visited the endzone, and CB Fred Davis picked off 5 passes, housing the 1st one, and just might have earned himself a spot in the starting lineup in the coming weeks.
