They basically took NCAA 09 Jameel Sewell - who they turned into a poor man's Tim Tebow for God-only-knows-what-reason - changed his number, year, and skin color, and bam he was Michael Strauss. Hopefully they're a little more in-depth this year, because Strauss, much less any quarterback that UVa has ever trotted onto the field, is not considered a bruising runner lol.

If Chase Minnifield is not rated as the best cornerback in the ACC then EA is a freaking joke. /homer

I'd be surprised if any of Virginia's quarterbacks were rated above 80, that's where we are hurting this year is inexperience under center. Also we lack RB depth, though our starter Perry Jones should be pretty good, 84 sounds about right. We should have plenty of good depth at wide receiver, and our defense ought to be a tad bit faster and tad bit better than last year, particularly with regard to shifting from a 3-4 defense to a 4-3 defense.

It would not surprise me to see Virginia Tech rated like that, though I think that'd be giving them a ton of slack for a team that is supposed to be young and likely not favored to return to the ACC Championship game at the season's outset. In particular, how do we know the Hokies have good RB depth behind David Wilson? How do we know that Logan Thomas, a guy who practiced at tight end last year, is going to be a good quarterback?

Just my $0.02 as someone who lives in the state with a different perspective.

I echo the hope that maybe EA will in-general use more of the ratings scale.

He's not even projected to start so if he's a 90 the rest of the SCar dline would have to be even higher and that's not likely. If anything he'll get the Dre Kirkpatrick treatment and get a ridiculous rating his second year.

Lol ya i remember that it was after Arkansas made a comeback to,Should have never even tried to catch it. If Arkansas would have had a better QB than Dick they would have been hard to beat.

What are you basing that on? Spring depth charts?
I guarantee he takes the first defensive snap against ECU.

Ya but that's ECU.. Just like I'm sure your violation invested QB will be back for the big games that count just so they can say they punished him, but don't wanna risk losses.

I heard once he gets violation #10 a stern letter will be wrote to his parents about how he is bad but will still start because we don't wanna risk any losses lol

Re: **NCAA 12 Ratings Predictions Thread**

I see Purdue coming in at B's and C's (like always haha). In real life, I would have Rob Henry starting, Marve at back-up, but I bet Marve will actually be the starter.... The good news for Purdue is that they get 2 pretty easy weeks to start us off. Mid Tenn State, then we travel to Houston to take on Rice. I forget the week 3 game, but I think it's a gimme as well. If we play things right, we should be 3-0, and really compete with Notre Dame.
