#2 USC (3-0) at #1 Indiana (2-0)
Texas State (1-2) at #3 UTSA (3-0)
#9 Texas (2-0) at #5 Florida Atlantic (3-0)

Meanwhile I get to beat up on Texas State.

EF - Does Saturday at 8:30 a.m. work for you?

I'm on call Friday night... as long as I don't have a horrible night of call, it works. I don't want to try to play such a big game on 2 hours of sleep :)

Well, I'm spotting you a stud RB. Seems fair to me!

Would Sunday be better?

No... I'm on every other Friday and Saturday night until we hire another psychiatrist. :(

What I can definitely do though is post here if I'm having a bad night so you will know first thing in the morning.. keeping my fingers crossed for a good night! :)

Sounds like a plan. Good luck!

When does cartman get back?

I screwed that up guys. I meant to ask for no human regular season games.

I'm not sure how we are going to get this in... but we will find a way.

The ER is becoming very busy... no sleep so far tonight and not looking like I will get any in the next several hours :(

Edit: 2 more just came in :( No go for 8:30 today. If Saturday night call is better, I can play Sunday morning. I probably will be sleeping 6 or 7 AM until 2 or 3 PM tomorrow.

Sorry it didn't work out. We can try for Sunday morning if that works out.

Texas is an in-conference game, so no control over that.

Pups just woke me up a few minutes ago. Didn't get to sleep until 6 AM. Hopefully, tonight will be better and we can play tomorrow. Thanks! :)

Doh... missed that.
Crap.
OK well Cartman ping me when you get this and let's compare schedules.

I'll get back home late on Sunday night, and will be around all next week.

8:30?

It started out a good night and looking good for our chances to play, but just as I was about to go to bed, 4 patients came into the ED. Just saw 2 of them and 2 more just came in...

So, I'm sorry but I can't play tomorrow :(

Next best times are Wednesday night or next Saturday morning (preferred I think.) I'm not on call next weekend so I'm certain I can play that time.

Let's aim for Saturday morning. It's a busy week for me both at work and with appointments.

EF: Are we on for 8:30 a.m. tomorrow?

Yes, it works for me. :)

Excellent.

Next man up! Our backup RB, junior Mark Roberts, in for injured All-American Danny Clark, carried the ball 42 times for 239 yards and 4 TDs as he led us to a 34-31 win over Rob Bell and the Trojans. The game could have gone either way, but we came up with a couple more plays and were able to even up the all-time series against USC, 5-5. Doug Rivero had a nice day with a sack and a 100-yard kick return for a TD to open the second half. Our defense did a nice job of keeping Bell from putting up video-game numbers, as he finished 14 of 23 for 229 yards, 2 TDs and 1 interception. He gashed us a few times with his scrambling ability, but we held him to 56 yards on 4 carries.

These games are always nerve-wracking, EF. GG, and see you in the conference championship game.

Congrats and good game Kodos.

Any updates on Texas vs. FAU?

Havent heard back from cartman.
Im on a project right now that has me working ~4pm-2am x 7 for probably the next month.

Good news is I am free during the day m-f...

Unfortunately, I'm not available during the day. On top of it, I'm heading out on Friday, and won't be back until the 27th.

Alright fearless leader.
What do we do...

I hate leaving it up to the fate of the CPU as I think I have a very good team this year, but understand if that's the only choice. I also have a couple visits already scheduled and wont be able to ensure stats are padded, which sucks.

If simming is the solution Just let me know and I will recruit before hand.

Pacing in the NCAA leagues - Front Office Football Central

I think this would be a good thing to discuss in a separate thread.

In this scenario, I think the fairest thing to do is put Texas on autopilot.

ready to advance

Week 6 - Deadline is 2/28 (Tues) at 11 p.m. EST
 

Week 5 Results

Indiana 34, USC 31
Florida Atlantic 42, Texas 35
UTSA 77, Texas State 14


Week 6 Games

#1 Indiana (3-0) at Oregon State (1-2)
#20 Alabama (2-3) at #2 Florida Atlantic (4-0)
#3 UTSA (4-0) at Ole Miss (1-4)
#12 Ohio State (1-2) at #7 USC (3-1)
#13 Texas (2-1) at #9 Oklahoma (4-0)

USC took out our frustration from last week by demolishing Ohio State although the defense gave up more points than I wanted to see despite having 9 or 10 sacks.

Dola -

Everyone has played and is green except Indiana :)

Curse me for holding things up!

LOL. :)

Geez mab...come on. Lol jk kodos

Week 7 - Deadline is 2/27 (Mon) at 11 p.m. EST
 

We're on to Week 7!

Week 6 Results

Indiana 63, Oregon State 14
Florida Atlantic 28, Texas 21
UTSA 42, Ole Miss 7
USC 84, Ohio State 24


Week 7 Games


#1 Indiana (4-0) at #23 Michigan State (2-2)
#2 Florida Atlantic (5-0) at #21 South Carolina (1-3)
#9 Georgia Tech (4-1) at #3 UTSA (5-0)
#4 Michigan (4-0) at #8 USC (4-1)

Another strong win for us. I think our defense is the best its been. The LB's have really become a strength. Our pass attack was incredibly efficient in this one, only one incompletion on a ball batted at the line.

USC's defense had a very rough 2nd and 3rd quarter, but our offense was on fire all day except for 2 mistakes. We cruised past #4 Michigan.

Will be playing this evening.

FYI Internet is down and had been a couple hours at home. Don't think I can play on my phone lol.

Will be getting off early AM and try then.

Got my game in a couple hours ago.

Another win, but my team is struggling. Every game has been a 4th quarter affair to win, never getting the breath to pile up stats or impress recruits.

I am going to start lineup shuffling, because something is off and at times I feel like there is some hidden code where changing one starter can unlock improved performance.

Or a coaching change. ;)

Week 8 - Deadline is 3/8 (Wed) at 11 p.m. EST

#2 UTSA (6-0) at Virginia Tech (1-4)
#7 USC (5-1) at Wisconsin (2-3)

Touche...

LOl

But Ive seen this in Single player before and I cant quite explain it. There will be games where your entire team just seems to move a little sluggish. RB dont hit the hole as quickly, complete a pass and the WR is tackled immediately on a route type where they usually get separation. You can dig into the stats and you should have a speed difference advantage etc.

Then you can make a change in your starting lineup and viola everything hums again. Ive felt like the CPU punishes you if you are trying to force a young guy to start (like in SP if you are trying for career records etc) or force feed a Heisman hopeful etc.

Again maybe I dont know how to describe it, but Ive seen it happen and Im determined to find the player to make it happen again.

FWIW, my back-up RB has been doing much better than my starting RB was before he went down for the season.

I'll get this game in tonight too most likely.

ready here

We're done too.
