Is anyone else having trouble with the read option? I expected it to be much more fluid this year but when keeping it with the QB he often doesn't fluidly run after the fake. Most times he kinda stutter steps for a second then has to get up to full speed, and by that time he'll have been tackled already. Maybe it's just me...

Noticing a few bugs:

-Just kicked off to OSU, they returned it to the 20, then their cheerleaders ran out on the fields with flags celebrating and a drive recap popped up saying they just scored off a touch back.

-I broke up an OSU deep pass and they showed OSU players celebrating.

-At the end of the Mizzou/Clemson game, there's a HUGE patch of grass that's noticeably out of place; it clips an entire side of the endzone, I'm assuming it's used for intros.

-And of course the play of the game being the downed ball play.

Thoughts and observations after several games.

Heisman is definitely the way to go. Cpu plays a fair game. All-American is too easy.

There is a pass rush. Maybe I get pressure because I generally control D-linemen. IDK. But, for those that say it doesn't exist. Not seeing it. Last game me (Texas) had 2 sacks and 4 pressures in the first half vs. Oklahoma. In under 4 minutes. On Heisman. You have to mix up coverages to confuse the QB.

Running game is nice. Love running inside now.

Fumbles do occur more often on Heisman but, if you protect the ball and put your ball carrying on conservative when you know the defense is going for strips, it tones the fumbling down a lot. Have yet to fumble more than once in a game. Haven't fumbled at all in several.

Love the incompletions hitting the dirt. Picks are reasonable. Pick sixes seem more rare.

More drops and incompletions. Nice. Like the look of many of the pass break ups especially when the receiver gets hit in the back and doesn't hang on.

Love some of the gang tackle and broken tackle animations.

I play a pretty methodical style. I usually play 8 or 9 minute quarters so, I'm playing the demo as if it is a quarter. So, I'm getting a lot of 7-3 type of games. I will throw up 21 from time to time but not all the time.

There is no indication of robo-QB even on Heisman. If they are in come from behind mode, you can really get after them with the pass rush. Lots of 3 and outs.

Negative- Option pitches still going as incomplete passes instead of fumbles.

Only penalties I have seen is when I draw the D off-sides. Anybody seen penalties? No biggie in a 2 min demo but just curious.

Most likely due to the 2 minute quarters. The same thing would happen playing short quarters in Dynasty on NCAA 10.

Speaking of minor glitches though, whenever the defense jumps offsides they glitch through the line completely. As in, they teleport about 3 yards behind my o-line and THEN do the jump offside animation from NCAA 10.

That and also every time the referee is shown (when calling/describing a penalty) the camera is halfway underground.

Blair Walsh (UGA) kicked a 53 yarder with about 10-12 yards to spare . As in it was in the high part of the uprights.
