NCAA 14: Exciting Plays????

[EAGLESFAN10]

We ALL know that College football is about the tradition and atmosphere of schools BUT those Surprising/Unpredictable Plays Make College Football that more interesting to watch

Never have I since playing playing NCAA Football games have I seen those Surprising/Unpredictable plays by the CPU or by the USER (even IF I tried) and I don't mean those simple plays either

I'm talking about those plays that make you jump off your couch in Excitement but also make you go WTF ... How in the world did he do that


Here are some Highlights of Moments that should be in NCAA 14 and the future

Problem is the ratings dont matter enough and there is no momentum.

In NCAA13/14 etc offensive players and defenders can change direction much easier so you'll never get plays esp like most of Tavon Austins highlights.

Another problem is player ratings dont matter enough. The starting HB for most decent schools in this game is probably rated at least an 86, with the average probably rated ~88. Take an 88 rated HB and compare them to a 99 rated one with about the same speed. Probably wont even be able to tell the difference because bad players arent bad enough and good players dont stand out. When everyone can move like Tavon Austin or Lamichael James, they loose their special feel and ability to be dangerous in the open field

Edit:
In game those 'How in the world did he do that' plays ARE in the game and typically look like this

That's because there's no downfield blocking. Watch those videos.... How often in the game have you been dodging tacklers and following your blockers 60+ yards downfield?

Have to agree you don't even have to worry about mis matches unless one players speed is way above the other. But other than that most players play the same
