An ugly game all the way around between the defensive breakdowns and the injuries. I know we talked about it extensively but that's college football, you never know what is going to happen. You have to love it in a way. Hang in there my friend and get right back on that horse against San Jose.

Solid win against San Jose State! I will admit it was closer than I was expecting. Deon Watson was the definition of clutch in that one.

I like the decision to go with Chalich down the stretch. He adds a nice spark and dimension to your offense. It should be a good game against a Hawaii squad that looks much better than their record. Good luck man!

I am still in awe of Idaho's uniform combos. That black and gold just looks flat-out classy.

My high school basically stole the logos/look from them. It's easy when the school name starts with I and nickname starts with V. The football helmets/baseball hats were the exactly what you see Coach Clark wearing, but without the "Vandals" across the I.

Back to game action, this was kind of the defense I kind of expected to see from your boys this year. Can't believe Fresno put up 41 straight points in the middle of that game though. Looks like they were all entertaining to play though.

Good luck getting that win against Hawaii and hopefully Fresno State stumbles so you can get back to the MWC Championship and have another shot at Boise.

I appreciate how you guys read and respond so thoughtfully. When I was doing this a long time ago I took pride in doing that and now with having very little time on my hands I feel my comments are blah now. Gotta work on that.

You were right on about Hawaii, when I looked at what they had actually done this year and how my games had been going, I knew that this would be hard. The defense as Matt points out completely out played their ratings in the first half of the season. They are really bad, lol.

When Deegeezy said that it was cool, because I was tired of the lack of options. But they do have nice colors. Rejuvenated my interest in the unis. I couldn't figure out where you went to school, guessing it's not in WA. but would like to see those jersies.

Like you said, this D wasn't ever supposed to be any good and now we are seeing the true Vandal defense just rearing its ugly, bloodied head... sheesh. I'm facing Temple in the bowl game so we'll see how that happens. I really need a win there for 10 wins and some decent shot at 4 stars (even though it probably won't happen and shouldn't). Maybe someone knows more about the NCAA 14 requirements than I do, but whatever happens happens.

Fresno didn't end up losing. I'll be posting about that soon.

Fantastic dynasty you've got going here Helli. I remember your UVA/MTSU dynasty back on NCAA 07. Still one of my favorite dynasties to this day. You had that one RB, can't remember his name but his nickname was "Rumble."

I've been lurking and following for a while now, just wanted to pop in and comment and say that you're doing great work.

I wanted to pop in and say how much I enjoy your dynasty. The layout and graphics are excellent. The uniforms make the team in my opinion - how awesome they are! Good luck in the postseason. Go Vandals!

Nice win over Hawaii in a back and forth battle. I really liked the added storyline of Filoteo and Lakalaka being from the same area. Chalich provided the offense with the spark we were hoping to see despite the two turnovers. Nice mention to BDawg as well ha!

I am excited to see who you draw in the postseason. The team has had a strong regular season and continues to improve. Loving this as always!

I'm so horrible, you'd think I would remember these guys but the memories are vague. I remember loving both of those dynasties and enjoying doing that, particularly I remember that someone was posting them as their own on another forum and literally re-did my entire dynasty taking comments and credit for my work like nothing. Peeps be weird. Thanks for checking in man.

Thank you. We kicked some Owl *** in the postseason, spoiler alert. Weird having a blowout game, that hasn't happened in a LONG TIME.

That's one thing i love about dynasty mode, when I recruited Filoteo out of Mililani town I remember going through and reading about that area and how All American it was and being surprised by that, and remembering it was close to Honolulu and such. Lakalaka has a history of just killing me in this game, sad to see him go.

We ended up drawing Temple in the Poinsettia bowl. Coach Clark felt very at home in San Diego
