Look at how many responses one can get with "how many minutes should I play"...

Do yourself a favor, zaiah5...start a game on 6 minute quarters. At the end, add up the plays. If you come out to around 120, you're in there. If you're at 100, up the quarter length by a minute. Everybody plays differently. If you rattle off 40 plays but gain 400 yards of offense, that's not going to be too realistic most of the time. However, if you run 60 plays and get 100 points, obviously that's a problem too.

Nobody has the magic setting (sim stats are different, since it's always the same)...just play it, change the length, and play it again. You'll know when you get it right, because you'll have around 120 plays (for both teams, combined) in the game.

120 for the whole game, or per team? Because I average about 55 for myself, so I guess I didn't do it right if it's 120 per team. If it's for the whole game, I think I'm fine.

Running 55 plays doesn't necessarily mean that you're right in there. The computer's total could be a lot less/more. Total both and see how close you are to the magic number of 120.
