#55 from Miami has white shoelaces instead of the black the rest of his teammates have.

I'm sure everyone on OS has already bitched about these things 1000x, so you can be sure they'll be fixed.

Initially, I thought it was error, but it might be intentional just to display that it can be done. USC for example wears white shoelaces.

the elbow pads...have they always been dual colors? #52 is black/orange.

Yeah. The elbow braces have always been Black/TC and White.

Pistol Full House HB Off Tackle – The Pistol Full House, aka the Diamond formation, was first unveiled last season by Oklahoma State and was later adopted by other teams across the country. A staple play of the three back pistol set is the HB Off Tackle play.

Do you see yourself running the Pistol Full House HB Off Tackle in NCAA Football 12? Which teams do you think are best equipped to run this play?

Nickel Normal Cover 6 – New to NCAA Football 12, Cover 6 is a split field coverage concept that has the secondary playing Cover 2 on one side of the field and Cover 4 on the other side. Add 2 plus 4 and you get 6, thus the name Cover 6.

Awesome, you can throw quick outs on that all day. Plus you should be able to go deep on the right side pretty easily or at least run a fly and hit the WR about 10 yards down field.

It's all about deception. If they fix dbacks AI we might not know what to excpect.

I want to see these graphics during night or in poor weather. If they can pull that off, this will be impressssive. But come on... no features? ugh.

Defensive back AI has been the same since 2003. Every year on my first deep throw I hope and pray the AI DB's don't all run right towards where the ball is going after its released and yet they do. Despite their heads being turned they all start running to the spot.

It's actually regressed since '03. Just this year they've made man defense run far too effectively by everyone. Bump and run defense is too effective in many cases, and zone defense is good situationally, but there is no way to build a defense around certain zone coverages. They need to overhaul this aspect of the game. Like you said DBs need to be aware of their assignment and cover accordingly... They need to play receivers instead of playing the ball in man... It seems like they are just part of an animation that leads to a result instead of a reaction to the receiver/quarterback. I'd eat this up if it were done correctly, but alas... no luck. Last year they supposedly fixed a lot of the blocking quirks, so hopefully this could be the year for the DBack.

Shotgun Spread Flex Wk Y-Stick – Another spin on a staple play of the Air Raid offense that’s used by Houston, as well as others. Shotgun Spread Flex Wk Y Stick calls for the halfback to motion out of the backfield to the right. This motion puts him in a spot that allows the Y-Stick concept to develop.

I really think all of these extra plays is leading up to a custom playbook where we can integrate them all into our own playbook. Just sayin'.

4-2-5 Over Thunder Zero Cop –A new addition to the 4-2-5 defensive playbook, Thunder Zero Cop is an aggressive pressure scheme that calls for both inside linebackers and the strong side safety to blitz. The unique aspect of the scheme is the term “Cop”, which tells the defensive end to play man coverage, usually on a tight end.

Do you see yourself running the 4-2-5 Over Thunder Zero Cop in NCAA Football 12? Which teams do you think are best equipped to run this play?
