Decent tradition, uniforms, and stadium.
I was thinking of playing with UNLV too, but since EA is incapable of figuring out 13 game schedules, UNLV's schedule is probably going to be wrong in the first season. I can live with the 1-AA games being taken out for the WAC schools that play 13, but UNLV is playing 13 1-A teams, so unless they figured it out, UNLV's schedule will be wrong in the first season and so will the schedule of whatever team they remove. The general inability to get something like schedules right irritates me too much and that's why I can't be UNLV in the first season. Maybe they fixed it, but I figure they'd advertise it since last year they mentioned in their blogs that the PAC 10 schedules were fixed only to find they were broken for the 5th year in a row or whatever

I think the true challenge is making a Team Builder team and make everything about you program a D accept Academic at C and making every player a Senior on the team and then simulate the season and build up from there.

Believe me, I've thought about it many times. I like the Kibbie Dome, it amuses me. I always make it a point to play there a couple of times in my dynasties.

Re: An Idaho Franchise is the test of a man's man

No thanks I start out with Notre Dame every year but when i win to much i change to a 3 star prestige or under. But this was before i knew of sliders so this year i have a feeling with the difficulty on the recruiting and the game play it will be really fun.

But last year i started with notre dame and then went to Hawai.

This. We do random selections for our online dynasty (3* or lower), but I'm really hoping I get Eastern.

I generally start with Alabama, recruit like crap and turn them into the loser they'd be without cheating (laptops, fishing trips, Dre's mom's car). Then, when I get fired, try to pick up a job with a perennial bottom tier team.

I turned Idaho around into a pretty respectable team in about 3 or 4 recruiting classes last time I played them. Maybe I'll try that this year.

Re: An Idaho Franchise is the test of a man's man

I might just do that this year. I use another dome team that isn't very good right now ... Syracuse. Grew up just outside the Syracuse area and attended many a game at the Carrier Dome. I can still recall the 95-yard TD pass McNabb thew to Marvin Harrison against WVU. Flew through my PSAT's to get to that game on time

I like running with Colorado St. and Air Force, in addition to my SU and Florida St. dynasties.

That's one of the things I love about the college schedule; with only 12-15 games (depending on league championships and bowls), you can get through multiple seasons pretty quickly and try out a lot of different teams.

Re: An Idaho Franchise is the test of a man's man

I would love to do my online dynasty with Idaho but considering there's no conference invites again, I'm not sure what I'm going to do...
