Wow...just won a great game at the Horseshoe, 20-17. They scored on a 69 yard bomb on the second play of the game and had the momentum. I replaced my freshmen strong safety (who bit hard on a play action and gave up the bomb) with a senior who is less gifted, but is more composed. It was a defensive struggle the whole time. 10-7 at the half with me up. They barely broke 200 yards of total offense, I was just up over 300. Well, I avoided that 0-3 start and have UT comin' to Gainsville.

Just started a new building dynasty with the USF Bulls. Started off 1-2 (including a nailbiting 27-24 loss to rival UCF). My RS Freshman running back has fumbled about 6 times, then I suspended him 5 games for an academic infraction. Since he's been out I've got great RB production from a slightly less talented junior and managed to reel off back to back wins.

I love that you actually have to factor in experience in this game, something I've never seen in prior versions of this series.

I had a dynasty going with Notre Dame and in the second year the youth was killing me. ND loses so much after the first season they almost become pathetic. But I am playing as Miami right now and I am in year 2, but I haven't ever been 0-2.

It's their composure. A low composure rating appears to make people fumble more.

After my 1-2 start and then rebound to 3-3 the wheels have fallen off. I'm using TheAub's AA sliders and man is it tough on a less than stellar defense. Lost my most recent game to Syracuse 55-20. I am now 3-7.

You're right about theaubs sliders. I'm 1-1 so far with University of Cincinnati I got my tailed handed to me by Pittsburgh 48-14. I have #8 Ohio State next and then top ranked Virginia Tech.

I'm 0-2 also,just like my real life counterparts-The Fresno Bulldogs. Doesn't bother me though,we'll both be o.k before the season is over(fingers crossed-Lol)

I just had a bad year. I started 2-4, losing four straight, till I went to Ann Arbor and beat UM. I'm loaded this year though, I'm esxpected big things.
