I'll have to see when I get done.
I'll shoot you a PM when I finish up.
Be prepared to rape my awful defense!

Great. Raping your defense isn't really my game plan. In an online dynasty full of Chip Kelly's, I fancy myself a bit more of a Nick Satan. I am definitely a defensive minded coach.

Not at all! I'll throw you an invite shortly. So, it's looking like we'll have 5 teams then? That's not bad really. I'll get this league spun up by tomorrow and create it's own thread. By the way, we'll be using the same rules, settings and advance dates as this one to keep things simple.

By the way, my wife and I saw a 2013 Rolls Royce Phantom at our Waffle House! I assumed it was an athlete or entertainer's...turns out (from the waitress) it was either a part of Tech Nine's posse or another rapper touring with him (they're in town, Tech Nine is from the town next to us and they had been there over the weekend). That's a $400,000+ vehicle...parked at Waffle House. Awesome.


Sorry its "SlickGlick1946"

Just let me know what I need to do since I am a dynasty virgin.

Alamo, turns out no you cannot copy a created team as a template (which would be awesome in functionality, but I doubt a lot of people would use it so I can see why EA didn't choose to make that an option). With that in mind, I think perhaps we should just continue on doing what were doing here in this dynasty since we already have a great foundation laid here and we seem to have pretty active people. Especially since we would have some people (like yourself) bow out to play the other. No need to ruin an already good dynasty.

For me personally, I can see where my problem lies. Since I don't play Notre Dame in here I get all bored easily with the team I'm playing and have been hopping around. Unfortunately, that keeps me from recruiting which is really the most important thing in the game. It's not easy for me, as a die hard Irish fan and just more than a little OCD, to find a team to play so I apologize for switching so much.

I think what's best for me, especially as proven by my 55-8 woodshedding by Alamo, is to pick a good top tier team with talent in hand and a solid recruiting framework to use to build with for the here on out. I feel I'm a pretty good player, but I need work in some areas apparently. So, what better way to get better than to play with you guys and soak up the experience! I could jump into the PAC-12, but that foolishness over there ain't my style. I'm a meat and potatoes guy like Wodywon.

So, I'll probably jump down to something south of the Mason-Dixon line and stay there. From the looks of it, Georgia or Florida look like good places to set up shop and begin gathering my troops. I think McManus and I seem to be on similar skill levels (I think) so that should make us good for conference foes. I think Alamo and Odywon are the best in our dynasty skill wise (at least that I have seen up close) so them being conference opponents makes this dynasty even better. Everyone else is on their own in conferences.

L-cart ND-ana, you can certainly join our dynasty if you would like! Word to the wise, don't do what I did...pick a power program that has talent already and can recruit because you'll need it. If you, or MR7183 want in on the action, come on in! All I need are your PSN ID's and you to review the rules we use on page one, post one of this thread and you're golden. I will have an invite out to you shortly. Thanks all!

As for the defensive backs thing, you guys are probably right and I think I know why. See, defensive AI as a whole, and specifically defensive backs were supposed to be much improved...completely overhauled in fact. Truth be told, they don't really behave much different than they ever used to. Really, the biggest difference is in the receivers not lighting up their call letters until they are looking for the pass. Supposedly the DB's don't look back and jump routes as much, and I've seen some evidence of that, but it's not perfect (nor close to).

As for dropping INT's, the sliders for DB's is VERY touchy. A little too much one way and they have flippers for hands. Too much the other and all of a sudden everyone is Deion Sanders. So, I'll adjust the sliders for the DB's and we'll see how it goes. With most slider sets, it's usually a "adjust as you go" kind of thing (as I'm sure most people know). So, hopefully we'll see more quality INT's when they should happen and better action!

FYI:

I adjusted the pass coverage, interceptions and defensive pass rush for both humans and the CPU. You should see tighter coverage, more interceptions when it hits a guy in the hands, and better d-line play from everyone. Sadly there seems to be no way to stop or slow down A and B gap blitzing. Oh well, at least the CPU throws a chip block or leaves a FB home now and then.

Dre...you are the man. Andy and I both had about 5 should have been INT's each.
He ended up picking me 3 times and I got him 2 times.
He plays some stout D!
That was a struggle.
Dre and Andy are the first 2 human games I've played on a football game online since NCAA 06. I really think playing more human games is a great idea. Dre....when you reformat the conferences....put Tulsa in the North with OSU....swap someone south...That way Andy and I could possibly have 2 meetings a season if we both win our divisions...at this point we are in the same division and if I win out, my opponent won't be the other top team in the conference...so when you choose a new job...do a lil rearrangement for me bra.

We need to try and recruit some of these noobs that are interested to play in the Big Ten. I'm getting lonely in the midwest!

I've only had one user-vs-user game, and that was against Andy in the natty in our first season. I need to win out and play one of you guys in a bowl again.

Win out and you'll be playing one of us for sure.

I'm excited for a 13th regular season game possible with the Big 12 championship game.
Heisman stat padding!

Thanks Alamo, I mentioned to Andy that I created a Big XII Championship game. I thought it was straight up crap they got rid of it in the first place. So, I put one back in at Reliant Stadium in Houston (since Arrowhead here in KC wasn't available).

If I leave Oklahoma State I will definitely put Tulsa in the North. I just haven't decided. My thing is, I'm pretty good at this game but from first hand experience you and Andy are a bit better. So, I like that though because it makes me better. The only thing is like Lion said...none else in the Big 10, only one team in the SEC (which is odd)...noone in the PAC-12...

I know my biggest problem. I haven't stayed anywhere to really build a foothold and begin recruiting, so that is something I have to correct. I do think that with you and Andy being as skilled as you are at the moment it might be nice for there to be one of you on each side of the Big XII. Then, try and place another human on the other side of the Big 10 or the SEC (because really, screw the PAC-12 lol) We'll see...having some balance amongst the human players is nice because it creates exciting in season games and then potential conference championship rematches.

SlickGlick64 is joining so it'll be interesting to see whom he chose.

Hey, did I get the first page first post right? Montee Ball from Wisconsin won the Heisman Year One, correct? IrishLion10, I'll be joining you soon to give the Big 10 some amusement. :)

Monte did not win it.
He was injured for about 10 weeks. His BACKUP, James White, actually won the award.

Tulsa can go SEC if needed. Lemme get 2 years of recruiting done first though!

It's out of respect. I don't like losing. Think Larry Bird meets Knute Rockne.

Just broke out some Nebraska football. I like this team actually...but their offensive line should personally apologize to all Husker fans for impersonating Nebraska linemen...poorly. Time to start building the foundation.
BTW, whoever wins the Big XII faces one of us from the Big Ten for the National Championship!

I'm bummed that Andy and I won't play again this season :(
Make sure to move me to the Big XII North in the offseason!

Andrew, I'd love to hand back ish to you, but EA's servers are giving me the bird. We're a bit tardy in advancing with all of this, but our mate across the pond will probably get his game in late (for us) and you need to play for your new team as well. Just a friendly reminder. I'll transfer ish as soon as EA does a shift change.

I can't believe everyone is forgetting about the Irish in this National Championship picture. Just like the team in real life we're back and plan on being in the hunt year in and year out. I can't wait for this next advance, I just had my big recruiting weekend.

Well I mean the boys from Wisconsin are the defending National Champions until dethroned...

But I got jumped by Oregon for no.1!

And I'm 4th in the Media Polls!

The outrage! Computer voters hate the fearsome ground attack!

Sorry to hijack your thread but does anyone know of a roster update that has thoroughly updated ND and/or made considerable updates for the whole country (ie Manziel, Mariota etc was very low rated on original game)

Check Operation Sports
Their forum probably has a number of good ones.

No Sir. Must be an off day. I only edited defensive categories...

HUMAN Pass Defense +
HUMAN Interceptions +
CPU Pass Defense +
CPU Interceptions + (slightly)
CPU Pass Rush + (slightly)
CPU Run Defense - (freakin' Texas State was shutting Nebraska's run game down. I can believe some things, but not that).

Anyway, there ya go. We'll see what happens. I did however pick off two passes (right into my guy's hands) and beat Texas State 70-17 with some great offensive balance...seemed legit.

If you are concerned with ND, I have a much more accurate ND roster than Operation Sports, and I have also fixed the majority of the big aspects on the national scene. Manziel is bumped up, Silas Redd added to USC, Todd Gurley put on Georgia replacing Crowell, etc. I will upload my latest rosters to EA locker, you can try them out if you like. Gamertag to search is theIrishLion10

Simulating my defensive series doesn't seem to be working very efficiently!
