As long as the sliders work, the stats don't worry me.

Ciatrick Fason still had over a 1,000 yards rushing. I think he actually led the SEC or was close to it.

No I mean in the game. Not real life. I had a MSU dynasty so I played UF every year. I always remember...wait. I can check the boxscores let's see...


2004 Boxscore

2005

They did run it a little bit.

The sliders better work.

Amen to that. SOunds like Abner has confirmed this as being true.

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.

I was thinking the same thing. Although negative yds rushing is not a good thing... I was thinking the UF playbook may have had something to do with it. Also don't know what the coaching sliders are at for Meyer. I want to see how the CPU controlled team runs with a dominating back like OU's Peterson or how the CPU play calling handles a more run oriented offense.

I'm just tired of some many people whining about the CPU passing game. There are sliders and in the video I don't think they changed them. The running game:"The CPU can't run the football." We know that we're going to have to change the sliders for the run game. I just hope that they added more sliders.
