so I continue to play like dog poo in my OD, losing 7-0 to North Carolina, in my offline Hawaii dynasty, I lost my first game 24-10 to USC and went 5 OTs to beat BYU 56-54, I tied the game on the last play of regulation, my best win this year. |

back to my online dynasty, played Ga Tech and had 4 interceptions three at the goal line, two of those the DB came out of nowhere, I fought back to go up 14-9 but Ga Tech came back to go 17-14 with 47 seconds left, I thought I was doomed struggled to get the ball down the field and on 4th and 12 from the 29 yard line with 7 seconds left I ran a post and the D played man, which is rare and I was able to score with 2 seconds left and win the ball game 21-17 ![]() on a side note the people I play with aren't too concerned about rosters or RB's juking or dreadlocks but they've noticed the jet pack defenders and are a bit annoyed about it, so the commish is going to try to tweak the settings but I'm not sure how he can cut down on that problem. if guys that just want to play notice something like that, there is a problem, NCAA really screwed the pooch, they took a step backwards this year but I'm still finding I'm having fun with the game and thats all any gamer should want but I reserve the right to bitch and moan from time to time

The jet pack defenders can't be fixed with sliders unfortunately. I've read guys manually editing the leaping ability of all LBs to help reduce it but that is not a good solution imo. EA's NCAA team should be smacked for not releasing a tuning file for some of this stuff. Instead they only release them with a patch which defeats the whole purpose! It's a lot better in Madden. I still see it once in awhile but much less. The ball arc is a little better and defenders don't have eyes in the back of your head with super reflexes and change of direction. Zone defense in Madden isn't as strong so things are a little more open as well. Outside routes like curls and outs are a part of your offense in Madden. Successfully throwing a curl route in NCAA is very hard imo. Edited by Rudy, Sep 4 2011, 05:42 PM.

the lack of ball arc is huge in NCAA and really brings the passing game down, I haven't really tried to throw curls too often, I'm mostly running crossing routes, when I do try a curl play I only attempt them when the CB is off the WR and its not a zone, because I've heard about the zone being brutal on curls and screens. I think I'll go get frustrated and try a few curl plays.

still playing in dynasty but I'm just playing out of obligation right now, I lost 4 games with Miami when I was messing with my playbook and now that I have it nailed down, I'm playing a lot better. I played my friend last week and he was ranked #2, I've played him 4 times before and have lost all of them with bonehead plays at the end of the games when I had a chance to win, this time out I baffled him with my Run&Shoot and my 4-2-5 D to a 21-7 lead with a 5 minute quarter to go, and I choked big time letting him tie it up with a minute and a half to go and going 3 and out to hand him the ball with a minute left. I was doomed and I knew it but my D bailed me out with an INT on the next play, so I had the ball 1st and goal and couldn't punch it in, so I had to kick the FG with 10 seconds left for a 24-21 lead which I held onto for the win!!! My friend was uber pissed he cut the connection quick as I ruined his chances for the NC, it was fun finally getting a big win and despite the restarts everybody in league has at least 2 losses. despite NCAAs flaws winning that game made it all worth it
