One Moore Time, A Coaching Career on NCAA14

[Deuce2223]

So sadly my auto save came back on without me catching it and I have did some off-season stuff thinking I still had a save for game results.

I can tell you that Ohio State won the National title but that's about it in regards to other bowl game recaps. Sorry.. I will do better next time.

RYPIEN ANNOUNCES DECISION TO JOIN THE DRAFT!!

Brett Rypien's 2017 season didn't end on a positive note coming off a INT plagued loss in the Fiesta Bowl to Oklahoma, but that didn't stop the JR QB from deciding it was time to take his talents to the next level. After getting 3rd/4th round grades in the upcoming draft, Rypien has announced he is leaving "The Blue" Rypien leaves having passed for over 11,000 yds with 84 TD's and 32 INT's, inlcuding 3861 yds 35 TD and 15 INT this past season.

Joining Rypien in the draft are SR TE Jake Roh (projected 2nd round) as well as SR WR Cedric Wilson and SR RB Jeremey "McWeapon" McNichols.

Wilson and McNichols are projected as 7th round or F.A. pickups, despite the fact Wilson broke 3 Boise State school records this season as he finished with 100 rec 1500 yds and 19 TD's.

Ouch! Losing two of your best offensive players. But, it does give you a chance to redefine the offense ... maybe find a stud QB.

Well Collins showed flashes of being pretty good as a true freshman. He has 82 spd too which I didn't take full advantage of. I landed what looks to be a pretty solid 4* QB recruit who should challenge him for the starting job next year and also a decent Juco Athlete that will get moved to RB to give me a solid 1-2 punch with Mattison.

MASSIVE CONFERENCE REALIGNMENT FOR 2018 SEASON!!

With the crowing of Ohio State as 2017 Champs, 2017 is officially in the books. Now with 2018 just around the corner, let's take a look at what looks to be the most exciting thing in sports as the NCAA does a major realignment in every conference.

The BCS also has announced that starting in 2018, the automatic ties to bowl games such as the Rose Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Sugar Bowl and Orange Bowl will now also have new affiliations.

When you think of football things don't get any more American then Texas football and that's where things get interesting as the NCAA moves every team in Texas to this newly formed conference.

Baylor,,Houston,TCU,North Texas,Texas State and Texas Tech make up Div A (Can really use a cool name for the Division)

TCU,Texas,UTEP,Texas A&M,UTSA,SMU,Rice make up Div B (also needs a name)

With the Texas schools removed from the Big 12, the realignment committee goes regionally, with

Iowa,Iowa State,Kansas,Kansas State, Missouri and Nebraska in Div A (needs a name)

Air Force, Colorado, Colorado State, Oklahoma,Oklahoma State and Tusla make up Div B (also needs a name)

The American and Big 12 Champions will face each other in the Fiesta Bowl

The Big Ten keeps it's name but is expanded to 12 teams.

Michigan,Michigan State, Minnesota,Penn State, Pitt and Wisconsin now make up the Leaders Division

Illinois,Indiana,N. Illinois,Northwestern,Ohio State and Purdue now make up the Legends Division.

Like the previous 3 Conference the ACC will also have 12 teams moving forward.

Duke,UNC,NC State, Kentucky, Louisville and Western Kentucky make up the Atlantic Division

Marshall,Old Dominion,Virginia,Virginia Tech,West Virginia and Wake Forest make up the Coastal Divisions.

The BCS has announced that the ACC Champion will play the Champion from the Big 10 Conference in the Orange Bowl starting in 2018.

For years the SEC has been know as the power conference in college football, but it gets a major shakeup will staples like Auburn,Alabama and LSU no longer members. Also the SEC gets something different then the previous 4 Conferences. They will have 13 teams in 2018.

Florida,FAU,FIU,FSU,Miami,UCF and USF will make up a 7 team division called the Sunshine.

Georgia,Georgia Tech, Georgia State, South Carolina, Clemson and East Carolina will make up a 6 team division called the Big South.

The Sunbelt gets a major facelift and upgrade as they join the power conference status.

LSU,Louisiana Tech, Louisana, Tulane, ULM and Arkansas State will make up a division.

Alabama,Auburn,Arkansas, South Alabama, Troy and UAB will make up the other division

Both divisions are still looking for names.

The BCS has announced that in 2018, the SEC Champion and Sun Belt Champion will face each other in the Sugar Bowl

The Mountain West also receives a pretty major upgrade as 5 teams from the former Pac-12 move over.

BSU,Idaho,Oregon,Oregon State, Washington, and Washington State now make up the Mountain Division

BYU,Utah,Utah State,Nevada,UNLV and Wyoming now make up the West Division.

Arizona,Arizona State,San Diego State,Hawaii,New Mexico and New Mexico State are in the Sun Division

Cal,Stanford,USC,UCLA,San Jose State and Fresno State are now in the Gold Division

The Pac-12 will keep it's tie to the Rose Bowl, but will now play the Mountain West Champs for the title.

Conference USA has to be considered a loser in this new realignment as they have no ties to a major bowl game, but this conference does get a interesting twist as it will be the biggest with 16 teams.

Boston College,UConn,Maryland,Navy,Rutgers, Syracuse, Temple and UMass will play in the North.

Army West Point,Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Southern Miss and Vanderbilt,Tennessee,Memphis and Mid Tenn State will play in the South

The Mac are the other losers in this new realignment as they also get no automatic ties to a BCS Bowl game and actually very little change to their conference. Northern Illinois jumps to the Big 10 and is replaced by Cincinnati who moves to the Ohio Division.

The Ohio Division will be Akron,Cincinnati,Miami OH, Ohio, Toledo and Buffalo
(I know they are not in Ohio but it needed a 6th team)

The Mid/North Division is going to be Bowling Green, Ball State, CMU,EMU,WMU, and Kent State.

Despite offers to join the Big 10, the Irish will once again go into the 2018 season as a Independent and until further notice it appears they will stay there...

BCS ANNOUNCES 2018 PRE-SEASON RANKING

#1 Florida State
The Seminoles make their move to the SEC and will start the year #1 after finishing it #3 last year. They have 99 Ratings in Overall,Offense and Defense.

#2 Clemson
The Tigers also make the jump to the new SEC and in the 2018 schedule will not face FSU unless it comes to the SEC Championship. Like FSU, Clemson is a 99 Overall/Offense and Defense

# Oklahoma
The Sooners are most likely the team to beat in the new Big 12 this year as they are a 95 Overall/Offense and Defense. They will have a tough matchup though in Week 1 as they square off against #4 Ohio State.

#4 Ohio State
The Defending National Champs will get zero rest as they take on #3 Oklahoma in Week 1, but as a 99 Overall/97 Offense/99 Defense, one would think they would be favored despite their ranking.

#5 Washington
Coach Pete and the Huskies move from the Pac-12 to the MWC and will look to make it 3 straight over the Broncos. With a 97 Overall Rating, 99 Offense and 95 Defense they will be tough to beat in Week 2. Interesting that the Huskies have Week 6 matchup with #2 Clemson

#6 Notre Dame
The Irish don't have a conference schedule but with a preseason ranking like this and a 97 Overall/99 Offense and 97 Defense they will be tough no matter who they play and could easily play themselves into a National Title game.
They have #7 Texas in Week 1, #1 FSU on the schedule as well as #9 USC, so they will have plenty of chances to prove themselves.

#7 Texas
99 Overall/99 Offense/99 Defense. Can't wait to see the outcome vs the Irish.

#8 Auburn
Losers of last year's title game, the Tigers are back looking to make another attempt. 99 Overall/99 Offense/99 Defense, the Tigers look to be the team to beat in the new Sun Belt Conference.

#9 USC
97 Overall/97 Offense/97 Defense the Trojans look to be the team to beat in the new Pac-12. Could we see a Huskies vs Trojans Rose Bowl?

#10 Georgia
The Bulldogs must have one of the toughest schedules this season with 6 games vs Top-25 preseason teams including Week 1 vs #21 FAU, plus a non-conference matchup with #8 Auburn and #22 Vandy late in the year.

The rest of the Top-25
#11 Miami FL
#12 Michigan
#13 Miss State
#14 LSU
#15 Baylor
#16 Arizona State
#17 Kansas State
#18 USF
#19 Kentucky
#20 UCLA
#21 FAU
#22 Vanderbilt
#23 Wisconsin
#24 Oklahoma State
#25 Florida

Boise State starts the year at #27

BOISE STATE ANNOUNCES 2018 SCHEDULE

With a new look to the Mountain West Conference. Boise State no longer looks to be a favorite to win the 3rd straight title.

The Broncos will start the 2018 season in Week 1 against the team they faced in last year's title game as they travel to face San Diego State in now what is a Non-conference rivalry matchup.

The Broncos will then face off against BYU in their 2018 home opener in Week 2 before facing Coach Pete and the #5 Huskies in Week 3.

Boise State will then hit the road for another non-conference matchup vs the Pac-12 as they face #16 Arizona State.

After a bye week, it's road games @ Wyoming and @ UNLV before returning home to face Utah and another former MWC foe in Air Force.

The Broncos then play 3 straight @ Washington State, @ Oregon State and @ Oregon before closing out the season on the Blue vs Idaho in rivalry week.

Coach Moore

Quote:

"Obviously moving from the MWC to the Pac-12 has been a dream of Boise state players and fans for many years, even though we didn't move the Pac-12 in a sense moved to us, as UW,WSU,Oregon,OSU make our new division super competitive and with BYU and Utah in the West, winning a 3rd straight MWC title doesn't look like a slam dunk any more"
