I'll cut you some slack on that. I've done that a couple of times before too. There were a couple instances where I needed a team to lose so I could open up a slot for a favorable bowl match up. In 08 I believe, I needed Florida to lose their final two games so I could have a more deserving undefeated team in a BCS game, so I played against them with Western Carolina - won on a last second FG, 48-47 - and then they lost 31-14ish to Florida State. In later dynasties, I just took to scheduling all of my schools against top schools so they end up sub-.500. Now I'm trying it out with just subbing them out for my created schools. It's a little more fun seeing other schools at the top instead of Florida, Bama, Ohio St, Michigan, WVU, among others.
