interesting, thats what I thought... But yeah, Offline, once you open the editor with your dynasty file, you can edit anything and everything, I mean, there are some limitations, E.g. cant actually change TV Exposure or a Teams Program Tradition (d- to a+), those two actually update themselves automatically, so any changes you make never stick unless you literally change it week in and week out, which is insane...... ALSO Campus Lifestyle is impossible to change (To my knowledge), I havent found a way to actually change it lol... But anyways, Bowl changes are set in stone, even bowl bids you change

You can also change a teams Prestige (* to ******), Academic Prestige, Athletic Facilities, Teams Schedule (preseason, and week in and week out), All Rankings, Stadiums, Stadium Occupations...

bump. Has anyone tried this? Having every bowl-bid be an "at-large" spot

After reading this, I decided to try it out this evening.

It took a little while to change everything in the Editor, but I was able to change all bowls to "Generic" with a Conference rank set to 0.

After simming to the Bowl Season, I really like how each bowl is setup between "like" teams and teams that are ranked near each other.

Good idea.....

Hmmm... interesting. Good to know, I also like the idea of balance it presents. I'm gonna try it on one of my longer lasting dynasties and see how it pans out

If you mean just changing the bowl-bids to at-large for all of them, yes, I did that. After 1 season in dynasty, and I don't remember them all, but schools from the big conferences still got the bids. I play as Purdue and played vs. Oklahoma in the Rose Bowl.

Yes I do. I don't necessarily always want to go to the Rose Bowl if I qualify for a BCS Bowl. I did this time, but it was my first season. And I got to play vs Oklahoma. I like variety.
