I don't know if there were 4 99s from 2002-2005.

between us being rated lower than Bama by EA, and Phil Steele ranking us 40th, I'm just joining the bandwagon and dumping on the Auburn Tigers

Yeah I agree. Looks like alot of players are overrated. 99's should be rare in the game and be reserved for the elite players that you don't see every year.

It's a video game and a magazine.

It's not the end of the world.

I saw a video that had Groves and Blackmon as Impact Players. Did they change the number of impact players from last year's version? I can't remember what specific video it was but I think it was an interview with a producer and in the video Auburn was hosting Arkansas. They didn't show many offensive plays when Arkansas had the ball but they did show some defensive plays and Blackmon definitely had a star under his player model.

just minor gripes I guess, but I can't imagine any scenario in which Bednarik sees time at QB other than on trick plays. Also, he runs much faster than a 59. QB #18 is likely senior QB Markell Harrison who saw time last year vs. Eastern Washington. Looks mightly slim behind Slaton, but people forget Collington was hurt all last season. Slaton's true backup in Owen Schmitt. Another running back is Eddie Davis who saw some time last year (15 carries for 65 yards) while Best has done nothing in Morgantown so far. It's also worth noting that WR Jeremy Bruce played TB in highschool and sometime lines up at running back.

Luckily, UCLA plays Notre Dame.

I'm going to risk NCAA sanctions and pay Bruce Davis to injure Clausen.

Tray Blackmon and Quinton Groves should be able to handle him quite nicely...
