Bout damn time this game swung the way of ground and pounders and Defense instead of rocket catches/chuck and duck. Damn arena/slamball shit went on way too long for certain coaches.

why does it have to be one way or the other is the question. Happy medium would be nice

also, lets not act like running was absent last year

Running was there but passing has almost always trumped running. Great passing coaches could always beat great running coaches and it had zero to do with skills.

Being a good passer takes more skill than being a great runner IMO.

So now the runners have the advantage, skill or no skill involved.

With the way the defense has played this game in the past, how could you really ever tell that? One game outs and corners work like clock work, next slants and drags, the next its WR screens and flats. NCAA has never been perfect on offense, but for too long its been pass heavy and IMO had nothing to do with skill of users.

Which is why Im loving the way this version plays. There dont seem to be those money routes you mentioned, and passing requires proper reads (which, admittedly isnt always enough). The sacks and INTs I feel add enough risk to passing to balance the offensive tendencies. Before when passing, there just wasnt much risk. If it takes superhuman DBs and LBs to make that happen, I can live with that

So, got a new slim PS3, get everything set up, but it says I have to re-download the NCAA 12 Online Pass. When I click on the download button, I get a pop saying:

"This PS3 system could not be activated. Your account already has 5 PS3 ssytems activated for game content. To activate this PS3 system, you must deactivate another PS3 system" Blah blah blah.

I have no clue what the hell that means or how I have FIVE PS3s tied to NCAA. And I have a broken ass old PS3, so how the hell do I deactivate it, and how the hell do I activate my new PS3's NCAA 12 online pass?

return the game and get a new one with a new pass. say this one freezes or something. and to actually answer your question purple monkey rocketship

last year's passing was ridiculous to the point where the only chance you had to stop anyone was sacking the QB

...now it's the opposite, which i don't exactly like but i'll take it compared to the alternative
