That was nice, as was the fact that passing looked better, and the impact LB was having a great game.

Re: New POTD

I wonder if Georgia is going to run that much option in real life.

Re: New POTD

I must say, it looks very pretty. But the CPU with -9 yards rushing at the end of regulation? Yeesh.

A (big?) part of the reason for that, though, may be that the game seems to be totally misrepresenting the Urban Meyer spread option offense. I read in a preview somewhere that Florida's playbook contains only shotgun formations in deference to the coach's unconventional offense. But if the playbooks are working the same way as in NCAA 2004 and 2005 (which it would seem they are), there are no special option plays or anything put in for Florida's offense; all of their shotgun formations contain all the same plays that other teams' shotgun formations do. So all that means is that probably 80% of the plays in Florida's playbook are passes, which gets reflected in the CPU's playcalling. Only once in all of these videos does the computer actually run an option (the second play they run in overtime), and when they do it it works quite nicely. But the rest of the time, all we're seeing is Chris Leak drop back and pass, often to 5 wide receivers, which actually isn't all that common in Meyer's offense. (With no running back, the option becomes much less of a threat, right? )

In other sets of videos, the computer's running game seems to be healthy enough; it might just be that the CPU-controlled Florida is a weird team to play against this year.

Re: New POTD

I seem to remember that Florida didn't run much last year either.
