Why did they make Cal so terrible?

I have had around 5 dynasties...And Cal is consistantly going 2-10 or 1-11 or if they are lucky 3-9. Cals team rating is not bad...They have a impact player at QB. Is this some sort of glitch? I just find it weird that the second best team in the pac-10 end up worse than Stanford for 5 straight years each time I start a dynasty. Anyone notice this?

Thats weird. In my dynasty it seems like Cal is always doing well. I've always noticed them being in the top 25.

I noticed this. I played as Cal once, losing badly at Boise State. I played as Stanford, too, and destroyed Syracuse, which is lousy, but it leads me to believe the developers are Stanford fans who stuck it to Cal. If I'm not mistaken, they also took the Cal mascot out this year in 360 version.

i know what you mean, i did an offline dynasty with USC for 2 years and CAL both times played me very hard and i almost lost to them twice. and like you said they had horrible records.. they also have a real fast running back named jahvid best but i think the default rosters have him at 2nd on the depth chart. IDK??

They just went 11-2 in my 3rd year, even beating USC
I think they had a 8-9 win season the year before.

Oregon State is just horrible, as is UW and WSU and Stanford....I am starting to think there is NO hope for those schools either. After a strong 1.5 years, UCLA is really falling off too.

^^I wouldn't say Washington has no hope, Jake Locker has the potential to be a great qb.

Re: Why did they make Cal so terrible?

I can understand if you are having a hard time with Cal at first but if you are a good recruiter after that second year you should have winning seasons....stop going after those five stars and focus on the guys who fit well in the offense you are trying to run even if they are two or three stars you will be suprised at what they can do.
