Conference invites?

[Madden's Jowels]

I'm at the beginning of year 2, I want to find some time to just sit down and get through like 5 weeks of games + recruiting but sometimes its hard to find the time (as much as I'd love to sit in front of my xbox for 5 hours haha)


Year 1 I lost in the orange bowl to GA tech.

I think if I win a BCS game this year my prestige should go up to 6. Maybe that would be enough to get the invite, I'm not sure.

Is that hidden value pre-set or will it change as conferences become stronger or weaker in dynasty?

I've heard of Big East teams moving to the ACC in older versions.

I know in '07 it took me three seasons to get Nevada to the Pac 10. Now I made it to a bcs game all three years and won my first national championship my first year in the pac ten.

havent played much with dynasty in '10 yet, waiting on a accurate ps3 roster.

enjoying RTG though

Still Big East though, so none of the other bcs confrences move teams?

Big East is the only BCS conf. that can move teams. Usually, Louisville and West Virginia tend to go to the SEC, and the other schools tend to go to the ACC, although I imagine Pitt or Cincinnati could enter the Big Ten. USF I've only seen go into the ACC, although they probably can go into the SEC. All the midmajor conferences can enter BCS conferences, and the Sun Belt teams can enter other midmajor conferences.

I've had some very odd conference swaps, though, like Troy entering the MAC or Northern Illinois entering the Big 12.

Nope. There is no logical upgrade for them prestige wise or geographically.

I'm gonna start an Army dynasty soon and was just curious as to where you think they would go. I was think C-USA, then too the ACC.

Ok, I don't like to be the one that asks the all-knowing Adam of EA a question, but can we possibly get those hidden values from you? Pure curiosity in my department as I just want to see how EA ranked the conferences and where my Big Ten stands. Is that possible?
