Starter being taken out of the game

[mattynokes]

It's been happening at least since NCAA '11. It seems to be tied to your auto-subs and once the game decides the player is done, he's done. Lowering your auto-subs to 0/1 after the fact won't do you any good.

It seems your best bet is to leave auto-subs at default and manually sub players in via depth chart or packages.

In your playcalling screen you can move the thumbstick right or left and create substitutions...one will say spell HB with your backup RB number on the green dot in the formation...

Like some of the others have said...Subbing in a backup during pass plays where your starter isn't a primary is a good way of fighting fatigue and you really have to spell your RB wisely to keep him at a high level all game long...I've literally watched my starting RB drop off in ability and I know I need to sit him...Then a back up comes in and you can see the change of pace happen...

Your talking about the Right thumb stick? I've never seen this and I'm pretty sure i've moved my stick around on the playcalling screen.

Moving the right thumbstick left or right on the playcalling screen will bring in different packages of the formation you're looking at. It'll say things like "HB Spell" or "Backup QB" or "Stack Strong" depending on the packages available for the formation you're looking at.

This doesn't show up in the coach's choice playcalling screens. It will be there if you select your offensive plays by formation.

Bingo! That's why I haven't been seeing it as I usually just click coachs choice and make my selection from there.

Thanks for the help guys!
