just got it for the PS3. i havent played dynasty yet, been playing campus legend. i made john goodman but didnt realize they come in during this season, so he came in with Duval. route running is tough and if you use the hit stick early on a block your gonna miss bad. it seems alot slower than previous years but, i think they were going for a more realistic feel (for example in madden 07 you can do a spin move like nothing).

if anyone has hints on recruiting, please post. you know we gotta get the #1 recruiting class.

I am starting to slowly get back my "I own souls" ability on this game...

The recruiting is a challenge.. I just finished Air Force week and only have two commitments... I am in the top 3 in nearly all of my targets...but getting them to pull the trigger is not easy...the call timer kinda gets under my skin... I have a 4 star reciever from Texas, and the #1 blue chip RB from PA....

Sharpley seems to have more zip and touch...his stats don't show it, but to me...he seems the more productive passer. It sucks that Frazer is gone...I want to play him so bad...but I cannot..I am a stickler for simulation.... and for the rosters... the transfer kits are available at Circuit City I picked one up today.... sure beats putting in all the names yourself..

I was playing with ZF a little bit before I changed him to Gillett and man he was zipping that ball around the field.

Just a riminder to everyone that the game comes out this upcomming Tuesday. For those that want a ND guy on the cover rather than J.Zabranski this is a good site to check out. Right now that have covers for Zibby, and Carlson. If you guys know of any other sites that have quality covers post them here. BTW, I finally bought my 360. I have yet to get Live though.

I believe i saw Jimmy Clausen had a rating of 83 in this game. I was just wondering what were the ratings of other top prospects of last year? Guys like Joe McKnight, Everson Griffen, Carlos Dunlap, Eric Berry, Ryan Mallett, etc.

I just got mine yesterday and have been playing all morning. I'm loving it!

I do wish they had the right names for the players though. I suppose the numbers are correct in most cases, but it would be great if the names were realistic. I think the computer assigned my quarterback the name Mathias or something.

I hate that too.

Go to fkrosters.com

This guy puts in all of the names and posts them on the web. I haven't gotten my copy of ncaa yet but I downloaded the roster file. You need to either send him your memory card or you can buy a file transfer unit.

I am driving to chicago tonight to go to the cubbies game tomorrow. My brother-in-law just bought the game and he is a huge Illini fan. We are already trash talking about our ND vs IL match up. I am hoping Zibby takes Benn's head off.

Just put them in yourself it doesn't take that long to enter their names, and correct numbers if you have a roster in front of you.

On 360 Everson Griffen is an 82 and McKnight is an 84, only 90 speed... looks like giving Allen 93 speed wasn't so bad afterall
