Pretty much my offense is unstoppable, and I usually get about 3-5 picks a game...a few of which I run back for TD's. Last season a lot of people put up huge stats on punt returns and scored oodles of points with punt return TD's, but I had a slow arse guy at the position for my first few games before I put McKnight back there. I get a lot of yards on punt returns, but not as many TD's as others. I guess it's not one of my strongest points.
I'm going to advance again tonight between 8-10. As soon as I get home and get settled.

Smoked Nebraska 87-21.
McKnight had 6 Rushing TD's, 2 Receiving TD's, and 1 punt return TD
Sanchez was 21-27 for 358 yds. 4 TD's and 1 INT
Defense played meh in my opinion. Gave up 14 points on two long, sustained drives. Was holding teams to negative rushing yards last year, and they rushed for 44 yds. on me.
Those bitches need to step it up. Especially with the recruiting class I had last year.
I see FSU hung 109 on poor BC. Dayumn.
This year will definitely be an interesting one... Art, you're going down, but not before I take out Gugich first.

When ya'll have a chance, go check out the 25,834 game record the AF Coach has for games coached. In my estimation, that means he has been coaching for the last 1,987 years. Talk about experienced!
br, I checked your stats. Whatever happened, its fixed now.

I don't know what to tell you, there are plent of great games out there, most for the 360:
Dead Space
Fable II
Command and Conquer 3
Fallout 3
Half Life 2
Bioshock
Civilization Revolutions
GTA IV
Saints Row 2
and many others...
The only thing thats worth playing on PS3 is Resistance 2 (and possible GT5 when it comes out with the full game). Some people say MLB the Show, but I'm not a big baseball fan.

SMU has a nice, nice playbook. Not a lot of running...mostly sweeps, options, and draws, but a lot of passing options...long, medium, and short. I won back to back NCG's in an offline dynasty with SMU, and they're a pretty terrible team.
The slants, screens, and short curl routes worked just as effectively as a running attack. You should try it out.

I posted this once before, but the new people (and some old) may have missed it:
I suggest we each put our cellphone numbers in the in game message box area below our team info in the dynasty headquarters area. This way it makes for quick text communication to schedule user v user games. I understand that some may not want to do this, but its just a suggestion. I have posted mine for starters.

Here's the deal:
I just went ahead and advanced to Week 2. I did this b/c the changes from Heisman to All American were not going to go into effect until week 2 anyway, and ya'll would both have likely had the same problems again.
Here's the catch though, I thought both Oregon and Mizzou would easily win. Fact is, Oregon won, Mizzou lost. Seawolf, I'm sorry that it happened like that. If you can take any solace in anything, maybe you can say that while you lost by a huge margin, Gugich lost by a small one in overtime. I dunno.
Anyway, I'm sorry for this whole damn scandal. It's finally over now though, and everything is back to normal.
Seawolf, you still have a legitimate shot of getting to the title game, seeing as that you have direct control over whether or not you school Oklahoma, and everyone else has yet to play their user games. All in all you should be ok.
Nino and Citgojosh, sorry you missed out on setting your recruiting for week 1, but the deadline was here, and I went ahead and advanced.
I'm going to be stricter about the deadline this year. We have more users and it's not fair to just sit around wondering when a person will get to their game once the deadline has passed. If there is an issue with being able to play on time, just let me know, and I'll gladly hold back on advancing. Just let me know about it.

Yea, we jumped up the difficulty to Heisman this year for more of a challenge, but it was a big mistake. The AI is bullshite on Heisman, any way you look at it. Therefore, we're going back to the same exact settings that we had last season. I'll purge your results and give you another shot at it because I did the same for Seawolf.
Everything should return back to normal next week.

I'm resetting the difficulty to All American with normal sliders. The computer still cheats to win on Heisman even with these settings. Sorry Art, but the game is no fun this way.
Idaho put up 35 on USC, and even though I beat them by 35, they still had over 350 yards of offense. I had no turnovers at all, but it is almost impossible to stop the passing game.
As LSU in my offline dynasty I beat FCS East 112-7, but then against Troy, North Texas, and Auburn, the score was 52-50, 70-45, and 48-43. The game, in my opinion, is much more unrealistic than before.
Sea, I'm going to purge the results of your game b/c it's not fair for you to have a loss on Heisman, while a lot of people had the benefit of a bye, and will get to play on AA for their first game. Once I purge, I think it has to be a cpu v cpu game, but at least you have a 50/50 shot of winning it. After I change back, no more playing with the settings, I promise.
As for restarts, it's my judgement call. I granted people the benefit of the doubt most of the time, especially if it was against a weak team I know they would beat. The only game I threw out last season was one where Penn State started the game 3 times against OSU. That was fishy to me, even if Penn State was rolling everyone.
