If you're expecting a BDawg quality franchise here, forget about it.
I am only running one season. NCAA is a pricey one-month rental for me until Madden drops.




The season so far:
Oregon 44 New Mexico 0
Oregon 31 Tennessee 27
Oregon 77 Portland St. 0
Oregon 44 Arizona St. 9
Oregon 17 Stanford 14

moved it into the ncaa section...come on dave

Sorry Cudi. I'm just not much of a franchise guy, but wanna do it this year because online play just isn't what it used to be and I can never seem to schedule online games.

Game 1:
Oregon 44 New Mexico 0

I decided to go with Maynard's idea of running this dynasty online, so you cats could check out the stats and what not.

Game one link: http://www.easports.com/dynasty?_use...&sid=0&wknum=0

LaMichael James was unstoppable in this game - 227 yards on 22 carries, including a 61-yd TD on the second play of the game.
Oregon's D-Line was dominant all game, especially DT Brandon Bair.
This game was never in doubt.
Check out the link for all the key stats.

Good shit dave, that site is pretty nice to follow it on.

Oregon 31 Tennessee 27

A strange game that saw Tennessee scored 21 points off INTs.
Oregon was behind 17-3 at the half and needed a 10 play 80-yard drive (with 1:34 left) at the end of the game to win it.
All three Volunteer INTs were incredibly long run backs (85, 50 and 46 yds).
Oregon always felt in control of the game, but the INTs kept killing them.
Ducks outgain the Vols 2-1 on offence.
Oregon now 2-0, remain #5 in the national polls.

Can you embed the EA articles from that site? If so that would be sweet and easy to follow

I haven't figured it out yet.
The Facebook embed simply sends you to the EA page.
I'd love to see all the shit here.

Game 3
Oregon 77 Portland State 0

This one was over before it started.
Lamichael James rushed for 175 yards in the first half and ended up with 230 on 14 carries, including 5 touchdowns, making him the NCAA's offensive player of the week.
Oregon poured it on in the 3rd quarter with 35 points.
Oregon had 652 total yards, compared to Portland State's 312.
Portland St. is not in the game, and are called FCS West in NCAA 11.
It really didn't matter what their name was in this one.

Game 4
Oregon 44 Arizona St. 9

Oregon expected more of a game from Arizona St., but this one was over rather quickly. Oregon left the first quarter with a 13-0 lead and never looked back.
Lavasier Tuinei had a big day for the Ducks with 5 catches for 153 yards and two TDs.
Oregon QB Nate Costa continues to struggle with INTs, but did go 14-19 312 yds 2 TD 1 INT.
Star RB Lamichael James got hurt in the 3rd quarter and only had 66 yards on 14 carries.

Big win against the Vols. Offense looks like its clicking big time.

[dave]

I was surprised at how easily I handled Arizona St.
Expected more of a game.
The two areas of big-time strength for Oregon are their offensive and defensive lines, especially their D-Line.
Every game it feels like my D-Like absolutely dominates.

My run game has been working, but I'd like more consistency out of my passing attack.
I can't find a playbook I'm 100% comfortable with - I currently use 'multiple'.

My D has yet to allow an offensive TD all season. All the Tennessee offensive points were off INT run backs.

I have adopted Maynard's Heisman sliders as "The official sliders of THE Oregon Ducks."

Fun fact: Lavasier Tuinei went to my high school for a few years before he transferred/moved.

Keep up the good work Dave.
