How to tell your a victim of upset or sliders

[oducksfan]

So I've had this happen while testing out sliders and only my 2nd or 3rd game with them in my dynasty with oregon and kentucky.

In one week I'll play right on to regular season, Oregon 85 - FCS 3 (Scored as time expired)

Then I'll be down 21-0 to Washington State in the 1st Quarter!?
Usually I can't get an average of 3 yards a carry and sacked about every 4 dropbacks.

I'm I just being upset or victim of sliders not being tuned.

Incase of further games similar how do I tell if I am geniunely being upset or sliders are unfair and I need to adjust and restart?

This was the reason for me to focus on building as close to an equal base set as possible. That way I feel ratings and hot/cold streaks of players matter.

Home Field Advantage makes a huge difference this year if you leave it "On". Home teams get an enormous boost. So if you were playing AT Washington State, and have HFA "On", that may have been a factor as well.

Sir, by the power invested in me as an advanced slider and roster tester I co-sign this in to law lol lol.

I edit rosters and play CPU games exclusively now. HFA screws up any reliable test data I come up with. Turn that crap off. It's another gimmick not needed for this game.

There are still 'roadblock' games that they throw at you every once and a while, where the game is far harder that it has any right to be. I've had a couple games where I was demolishing a team, the game froze, and when I went back to play it again suddenly the D was on everybody like glue, their WRs constantly got open, and it just feels so much harder.
