The one thing I wish there was a slider for was fumbles. CPU fumbles 3-4 times a game it seems.

Totally agree with you. Played on Heisman the entire time and I haven't lost yet in my dynasty. Playin as Georgia Tech. Ohio State playbook(i know sounds gay, but i have run into too many glitches with the option). HB Tosses and and Power O are way too good now even against good teams it seems. I rerated rosters making UNC D absolutely sick and i did not punt one time against them. Defense seems like the only thing harder.

Drop the difficulty level and get better. When you are better, up the level again...

one tip is to use thompson in the running back mix. which jermaine is good for breaking tackles he's not as fast thompson change it up alittle with them two. te is your friend and because the game blitzes alot you have to play the numbers game if one side has 5 guys and the other four on a run and you have the same to block including pulling guards run to the side with less numbers. lastly trust your eyes the window in this game isn't big so if you see it throw it.

i dont know that you should drop the level. Varsity is good, but at times can be too easy. On AA, you can still break big plays, you just have to time them right.

In short, I say tweak your sliders in AA. Whatever is giving you trouble and go from there

That should be a good thing. What fun would it be if you could consistently beat the computer 50-0?

Passing seems a little more difficult. QB's aren't as accurate. I like it.

Thank goodness there is no more scrambling to your right and throwing 40 yard darts across your body to the left all the while maintaining perfect accuracy.

I also use FSU. I hadnt played NCAA in a long time so I wanted to start this years game off on lower difficulty (Varsity) before going to All-American. Like someoine said before slow game speed is a good way to go. I also have tried different playbooks to see which I like best. I didnt care for the Multiple Playbook FSU uses since I like to throw the ball more. I found that the Air Raid playbook was better for me. If you like All-American though just find what your stuggling with and drop the slider a few notches and just work your way back up.

i agree this game is a bit tougher. while i haven't lost, i've had several very close games. i'm using VT, so i'm reliant on the run game (they have two stud rb's). i struggled against miami, boise, even georgia tech. in the nat'l championship game against bama, i've never got so frustrated. my defense made some key stops, but i could barely move the ball on offense. it was great! i ended up winning 17-10 because i doubled julio jones and got a pick six.

for those on heisman, congrats. you're way better at the game than me lol
