NCAA Dynasty Update Thread

[leaffan]

The play calling in RTG is flat out stupid. Playing WR is boring as hell. I go long stretches of the game with the team just running and all I'm doing is blocking. Even if I make A great block I get no credit.

Future Terrell Owens right here.

I was elated to find out that I was selected to the Preseason All-CUSA 2nd Team!

Anyways, we opened the season by traveling to Oxford, MS and faced off against an Ole Miss squad ranked 25th in the nation. We left with a lot of bruises as they pounded us 31-13.

I managed to get 12 carries for 48 yards, as well as 5 catches for 12 yards and my first ever receiving touchdown.

Wondering how my life could be different elsewhere...​

I am starting to get tired of the playing calling in this thing. 3rd and 1, they throw. 3rd and 15 they run. Down 11 with 2 minutes to go, 6 run plays 1 throw play and the QB got sacked with me wide open in the middle.

It gets better as you progress because you can choose some of the plays yourself (out of 3 options).

Prior to this week's game, I was named "Team Leader" by the coaches. I can now change the play 10 times in a game.

In Week 2, Rutgers came to town and left with our dignity. We suffered a 24-14 defeat, but it wasn't absolutely terrible. We have some semblance of an offense this season, it seems.

I actually finished the game with 18 carries for 112 yards while sitting out much of the second half with an injury, but I couldn't get into the endzone.

Yards were tough to come by, but I still managed to top the century-mark.​

Next week we visit another dome as we face off against Syracuse in the Carrier Dome. Hopefully we can get our first win of the season.

VICTORY!

We went into the Carrier Dome and defeated Syracuse 10-0 for our first victory against a BCS school.

I played a big part, as I got 27 carries for 104 yards and a touchdown. I also caught 8 balls for 59 yards.

I will kick anyone in the head that tries to keep me out of the endzone!​

Just when I thought we had turned the corner, Southern Miss comes along and proves the opposite. In my first "Battle for the Bell", USM completely dominated every facet of the game. Victory came easy, as they shut us out and won 30-0.

I managed to get 76 yards on 17 carries as well as 2 receptions for 7 yards, but USM's aggressive defense injured me three times throughout the course of the game.

This was a regular part of my life today...​

Next week we travel to Tulsa to try and reverse our fortunes.

Can you play both ways in college, or do you have to pick 1 position? I've got a scholarship offer from BC for both QB and FS and I'm just curious.

Only one position in college.

Lost 14-10 to Tulsa.

The playcalling mode is absolute shit. We should have won this game, but EA apparently refuses to put even halfway decent AI in this goddamn mode.

My stats were: 13 carries, 41 yards, 2 catches, 40 yards.

Lost in the second round of the playoffs to Evansville My QB single-handedly pissed the game away with 4 INTs in the second half alone. 20-14 loss. Was rough but I ended the year with 17 Scholarship offers. Ended my career as a 3 star MLB and 3 star HB. Still haven't found a place for season stats

- South Carolina (HB)
- Michigan State (HB, MLB)
- Arizona State (HB, MLB)
- Cincinatti (HB)
- Northwestern (HB)
- Louisville (HB)
- Kentucky (HB)
- Lousiville (HB)
- Toledo (HB)
- Indiana (HB, MLB)
- Central Michigan (HB, MLB)
- Western Michigan (HB, MLB)
- Eastern Michigan (HB, MLB)
- Illinois (MLB)
- Ball State (MLB)
- Miami of Ohio (MLB)
- Akron (MLB)
- Bowling Green (MLB)

I'm really unsure if I want to play MLB or HB in college. Anywhere I go as an MLB, I'll be the opening day starter. I really had fun playing that position toward the end of the season as well. South Carolina is a great chance to play in the SEC and be in a good offense. I really like Michigan St. because it's close to home, and they are a great running team. However, I'd be buried on the depth charts. Arizona State is very intriguing both at MLB and HB. I love the hot weather and women shifty but they run the Air Raid offensively. Kentucky is also a school I like as well as IU. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

Right now, I'd say I'm down to a top 8. S. Carolina (HB), Michigan State (HB/MLB), Arizona State (HB/MLB), Northwestern (HB), Kentucky (HB), Indiana (HB/MLB), Illinois (MLB).

I'm going to sleep on it tonight and finalize my decision tomorrow. Like I said I'd love to hear any suggestions.

If you are looking to play MLB I would go with Michigan State. Opportunity to play in a BCS conference and greater chance of success than at Illinois.

If you are looking to play RB, I would go with South Carolina or Kentucky simply because it is the SEC.

Once out of high school, RTG is real boring.

Once out of high school, RTG is real boring.

I actually like it more than HS.

And Jay, I think you should go to MSU at either position. You might have to sit a while behind Leveon Bell if you play HB...

And Baker...

Played three more games as OC at NT and I think I'm going to be fired. Lost to Houston 52-17 lost to Alabama 58-7 then lost to Indiana 37-3. I play Tulsa this week and I hope to baby Jesus that we can get our first win

You're toast.

0-2 as OC for WKU. 38-10 against Kentucky in Week 1, 20-3 against Navy in Week 2. I need to get some cupcake games to get accustomed. Gave up like 9 sacks against Navy

 

[RyanLeaf16]

Just played my first collegiate game. Finished with 2 tackles and a sack. We played FCS NW...ugh. I hate playing the made-up FCS teams.

Anyway, we won 45-0. Defense held them to just 88 total yards.

We play New Mexico next.

First collegiate sack

Finished season 1 as HC of Memphis at 8-5. We finished 6th in C-USA and got an invite to the Armed Forces Bowl, where we beat Bowling Green 35-17. Record can be a little misleading, as I scheduled some real cupcakes for non-conference, and we didn't play many of the better teams in C-USA, like Houston. All three of my QBs saw time during the season, as none of them could ever put a definitive hold on the starting job. My senior DE was tied for the NCAA lead in sacks with 12.5 (he actually got 6 of those in one game to break the school record), and my sophomore HB finished the season 11th in rushing in NCAA with 1100 yards. I was pretty pleased with recruiting, as I am bringing in three 3-star WRs, a 3-star MLB, and a 3-star DE. Also brought in a transfer HB from USF who is mid 80s rated and has low 90s speed, too bad he has to sit out 2012 though. Going into season two I put some more well known schools on my non-conference schedule in Duke, and Arizona State (still don't think we're ready to take on a ranked team though). My now junior HB comes into the season a preseason 1st team All-American, and #4 on the preseason Heisman watch list.

Edit: Forgot to mention I signed a 2 year deal after the season to return as head coach of Memphis.

Rhodes breakout game against Tulane where he rushed for 173 yds.
(Just noticed that damn circle in my snapshot, fuck.)​

Are you doing coach mode, or are you actually running the plays as well. I'm in love with coach mode.

Playing. I have a 91 over hb, but I haven't Played NCAA in at least four yeArs and madden in two. It's taking some time to get used to everything. Against kentuck, my qb looked good but the defence was giving up huge drives so we never saw the field.

Hopefully once I hit the sun belt schedule I can generate some momentum
