NCAA Football General Discussion Thread

[St. Francisco]

Pic I took from my Road to Glory. I re-created my alma-mater, Permian:

I was playing as OC, but not having control of defense is irritating to sat the least. I was playing ACC championship game, I scored a TD with less than 2 minutes to go, to go up by 10, I hit the button to skip till on field again, and the CPU proceeds to drive down score, get onside kick, score game over. In seconds. Plus I have no say in kicking game either.

yeah it works both ways....i'm the dc for montana and was playing #24 oregon state to end the season in year 1 and was down 14-10 with just over 2 minutes left in the 4th....i make a stop and get my offense the ball with a chance to win only to have the qb throw a pick six and lose 21-10.

worst loss of the season (and that includes a 63-17 ass kicking by boise state)

I seem to get better results when I actually "watch play" but this does make the game longer. If I "sim" the play, the cpu may score a TD in 40 seconds but if I watch the play it takes longer.

Yeah I find that too, I still said fuck it and took HC job at UNLV after two years at Western Michigan end one at Maryland.

I'm at UNLV right now in my Online Dynasty. I was at UAB for two years, then got jumped to MWC to UNLV on a 1 year deal cuz CUSA sucks. They were 0-11 last season, got them at 6-1 right now, boosted me up to an A+ Coach, so hopefully i can get some good offers this offseason.

Note: I'm only taking HC jobs, i was offered OC at USC/arky and maryland last season but turned them down.

Ok so did they fix that edit roster problem?

whens the patch come out

[RyanLeaf16]

I'm done waiting for a patch. I likely will still be in my first season when a patch does come out, so I am just going to go ahead and start my USF dynasty.

Add in all the new conference talk and...fuck it! I'm gonna make my own conferences as well. Gonna add A&M to the SEC and FSU. Might add Clemson and UNC or put Louisville in the SEC. Add UCF to the Big East, etc.

No one can cry "it's not realistic." A&M is about to change conferences in less than a year! Can you imagine the logistical headaches that all of their sports programs are going to have? Ugh...so I'm gonn have some fun with this shit - keep it somewhat realistic, but, not limit myself.

[RyanLeaf16]

LULZ. Just added Clemson, FSU, aTm & UNC to the SEC and got a "My Conference is Super" trophy.

I guess once you create a 16-team conference you earn that.

[RyanLeaf16]

What I've done with the conferences so far:

ACC:
Added - none
Lost - UNC, Clemson, FSU & Boston College

Big XII:
Added - Houston
Lost - aTm

Big East:
Added - UCF, TCU & Boston College
Lost - Rutgers

B1G Ten:
Added: Rutgers & Notre Dame
Lost: none

C-USA:
Added: none...yet
Lost: UCF & Houston

MAC:
Added: none
Lost: none...yet

MWC:
Added: none
Lost: TCU

Pac-12:
Added: none...yet
Lost: none

SEC:
Added: UNC, Clemson, FSU & aTm
Lost: none

Sun Belt:
Added: none
Lost: none

WAC:
Added: none
Lost: none

I added BC to the Big East to put the conference at an even number of 10 programs and they were once a member before moving to the ACC. I considered adding Miami, but, I decided not to since I felt it would leave the ACC too weak with only one anchor program in football (VT). With the RL addition of TCU next year and a possibility of UCF down the road, I added BC as a decent team for conference SOS. New Big East is pretty strong with USF, UCF, PITT, WVU, TCU and BC.

SEC obviously started this domino effect with the likely RL additions of aTm, Clemson, FSU and UNC.

Big XII added Houston due to location and it making sense geographically. Plus, the Cougar program is on the rise and they could make for a viable mid-tier team in that conference.

B1G Ten added Rutgers whom they have reportedly been "courting" the last few years and Notre Dame who has always been discussed as a possible fit for the conference. With the Big East losing Rutgers, it caused them to poach BC from the ACC.

13-team MAC conference has not been touched, but, I am considering adding Temple to the Big East conference. However, I'm not sure I am down with 11 teams in the Big East and I don't think I want to add a 12th.

MWC loses TCU a year early and is a 7-team conference. Only anchor program is Boise State. May "dissolve" MWC as best I can by adding BSU to Pac-12 and possible SDSU to Pac-12/14.

Also, under conference rules, I set the current Pac-12 championship game to the Rose Bowl and not the team with the best record.

Also, I turned protected rivalries on for SEC and Pac-12.

I also changed the AQ status. ACC now automatically qualifies for a BCS bowl. The ACC winner no longer gets bid for Orange Bowl automatically. Big East winner now AQs for Orange Bowl instead of open BCS slot.

EDIT: Went ahead and added BSU to Pac-12 North and SDSU to Pac-12 South. Thus, creating the Pac-14. I considered Fresno State or Hawaii for the Pac-12 South slot, but, decided on SDSU. Therefore, the MWC is now down to 5 teams and is, for all intents and purposes, dissolved. 5 programs, no solid anchor program, etc. Just don't see them being much of a factor at all in the game.

[FirstTimer]

Notre Dame to the Big 10?

[wingsfan77]

I'm in my fourth year as the OC at BC and we're undefeated and ranked #6. The weird part is that last year I had a 91 OVR QB and two 90 OVR WR's and was ranked higher but still lost like 4 games.

[FirstTimer]

Starting to do some planning. Can't decide to go with Custom Conferences from when Miami/FSU/Penn St were independents or when they were moved to the Big East, ACC, and Big 10... Hmm.

I'll set both up put them here and see what I like better.....

Basically trying to decide between a 1993 vs 1990 alignment.

[Sharkweather]

About halfway through creating 12 high school teams on teambuilder and then going to replace the MAC with all of them. Should be pretty interesting.

What you think FirstTimer

East
Assumption
Bettendorf
Cedar Falls
C.R. Xavier
Iowa City
Iowa City West

West
Ames
Ankeny
Dowling Catholic
Newton
SE Polk
WDM Valley

You would only create Iowa teams.

VSNCS Prizes finally bought.

Knubb's prize (via MattUM2) has been redeemed (the PSN points), but Virix's new belt will be exchanged for a forum donation in the very near future.

So much for being the People's Champ...
