Actually, I know in NCAA if you lightly press the left trigger on the Xbox version you can switch the ball to the other arm without stiff arming (ex. when you're about to get tackled and the ball is on the side just screaming for a fumble).

Re: Anyone irritated by ball carriers carrying the ball in the wrong h

Can also do that in Madden too. If you hit the left/right stiff arm button lightly, you can switch the ball to the proper hand. When you do it in ESPN, you're essentially doing a stiff arm, which means it automatically switches the ball to the opposite hand and jumps right into the stiff arm animation.

Again, it's not a huge problem. Was wondering if others felt the same way, because I haven't seen anything posted about it. Just was saying that it looks a little weird to have ball carriers exhibiting poor ball handling techniques when it might be something that's easily remedied.

I competely understand what you are talking about but if you really pay attention to the NFl (which i know you do) you either see stuff like this all the time or you will see ball carriers do it the proper way, no biggie because VC/EA allows the user to switch the carry hand anyway. ...I competely understand you by the way IMO.
