But yup, the call stood and I lost the challenge.

So it is safe to say that challenges are still broken in this year's version of the game. I don't even think EA has put efforts on finding a fix, nor it will in the future.

USC was always a team that ran the ball better in the past due to a better playbook and style. I'd really like to know if the spread teams run the ball better including the WR reverses. Those always seemed way too easy to stuff in the past. Thanks for the impressions!

I was torn between the 360 and PS3 versions, then I thought about that same thing. Lol. Thanks for the impressions..I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this game.

I noticed this when I bumped the demo for AA to Heisman. The game plays better on Heisman but in 4 games as Oklahoma, Tebow has thrown a pick in every game. Twice in one game.

Does the field get torn up and how sick are the graphics compared to the demo? player models did look kind of fat.

So it sounds like the CPU is still pick crazy? Lot's of pick 6's?

For me that never really has been as bad an issue as most. I see a lot of vids over the years showing the CPU throwing lots of int's but usually the bulk of them are coming from the human player switching to closest man and making a play on the ball (Especially out routes) You can virtually pick almost all CPU passes that are out routes due to the ability to switch to D player and speed burst to the ball and undercut the WR. The AI Wr never bursts to the ball to counter it. So for the last few years I never switch on D period. That has drastically cut down on the CPU int's. My uncontrolled players still make Int's and at times more than I like (For unrealistic statistical reasons)
No switching also allows the players ability to come more into play instead of my ability. Not everyone likes to play that way but for me I prefer to play as 1 player on the team instead of all players.

impressions dont sound too bad. The stumbling for yardage thing could get annoying, but honestly, it happens alot in football. just like the injuries in the game. 4 or 5 in one game isnt unrealistic imo.

this thing about the D-Line falling down at the same time....whats that all about?
