I think Idaho's defense will shine more this season. They are returning 10 starters on defense, but only 4 on offense.

Yeah, you're right. But even at that, 16,000 fans... That's not even half the size of Martin Stadium. I guess my whole point is that it would be awesome if EA put a stadium creator/renovation tool in so that we could have long-lasting dynasties with these small schools and give them a new stadium/facilities when the winning began. It would make it a whole lot better. It just seems ridiculous to play multiple seasons, maybe even winning a national title, and playing in such a small stadium/dome.

This is why EA needs to have a stadium creator or some type of renovation tool in their games. I could take Idaho to the promised land over multiple seasons and win National Titles but I'd still be playing in the Kibbie Dome with 7,000 fans at the game.
That's why I've never picked them. I do a single Dynasty and after 10 years or so then change to a terrible team, but I always check out their uniforms and stadium first so I don't get bored with them quickly. I don't think I could do 10 years of that dome.

And definitely agree with the stadium thing. It just feels odd after you've won championships and been moved up to a BCS conference that the stadium is still the same, would be nice if they let you choose from a few different stadiums like on the Team Builder site. Then you'd at least have something bigger and better with minimal effort for EA.

Back when UTEP was really bad (pre-Mike Price) on I think NCAA 2003, I bet my roommate a case of beer that he couldn't win the national title with UTEP in 2 weeks on AA. He did it, just barely. Now that was impressive.

I've played w/ them before their dome is nice to me for some reason. I became a powerhouse in like 3 years.
