Shew, that was close. Was not looking forward to coming on here and saying Vandy had just upset Tennessee....

k im back. ted hooked up another ncaa to dl so i will have it later today. just gotta grab GTA first.

OSU at OSU is going to be brutal. I may build a special playbook just for that game. And with the recruits I've brought in, combined with looking at a few other things, I'm officially staying at Penn State, I will not take the Oregon job if it opens up.

A few thoughts:

1) Nick's building a very nice team in Lubbock
2) Pengy as well, I kinda hope he stays there, I like how much he's brought that program up and he's built a solid core
3) Texas A&M has some monsters this year. But next year, holy crap is that team going to take a beating in the SEC. Ran is in for a rough season next year, maybe longer if he doesn't recruit well.
4) Tennessee is stacked for years to come

This must be "almost upset week."

Okie State survives Iowa State at home by a score of 40-33. After ISU took a 1 point lead with :30 seconds to go on a 40 yard FG, Senior WR Ra'shaad Samples takes the KO 8 yards deep in the endzone and weaves his way for a 108 yard TD with 18 seconds remaining. OSU would intercept the last pass of the game to seal a 40-33 win at home.

I was trying to save the replay but the clip didn't start until he was at the 40.

Last 3 games on the schedule

at #22 Texas
at #13 Texas Tech
at #11 Oklahoma

This made me chuckle.

I mean I've got a couple different playbooks, but one for a single game?

Yes

Ohio State tends to run a lot of "junk" defenses (lots of two down linemen, with LB pass rushers standing up) and I need to have some more power/under center formations to make them pay when they do.

I chuckled (can't use that word enough) again.

1 loss in 5 seasons, needs a special playbook for Ohio State

Not to get anyone panties in a wad, but I think it would be fun to ditch the custom playbooks perhaps. I don't think I've used a non custom one since the 1st week I had this game.

I don't think I've used a stock playbook since they came out with custom playbooks.

This is the first season in a very long time that I've used a custom playbook.

But rest assured, it's the same playbook every week... In fact, in every dynasty as well!

Ive been using the same custom PB since week 1 that the game came out. In fact when it got corrupted last year I actually rebuilt it

I use stock Houston playbook...always have.

The "new" playbook is not a "different" playbook. It's the same playbook with two formations taken out and two other ones put into their place.

I hate stock playbooks, too many dumb plays (PA esp) and too many "similar" plays.

Didn't make a new playbook after all. Turns out I didn't need to.

Next advance is scheduled for March 20th
