**** GOTW ****
[emoji91] 15 LSU vs CLEMSON [emoji91]

LSU comes in as the favorite not because of their roster, but because of their head coach. Arch lost alot of talent the past 2 years and is in the process of building his program his way, but one thing you can always count on is a strong offense. That is important this year because on paper their offense really isnt too impressive outside of at QB where they expect to see a huge improvement from last year. Clemson's defense against LSU's passing offense will decide the game. Offensively Clemson's best weapon is just handing it to RB Austin Clark behind that tough Oline but we'll have to see how much of a rushing attack they'll actually use against a team that will likely score on the majority of their possessions. I give the lean to LSU because Arch is a Wizard in these types of games. Too much offense for Clemson.

Pre: LSU 38 CLEM 27

If you need a restart you can use ONE because Idk how theyll play at all. Also you need to KNOW where your kicker can hit a fg from exactly or you gone come up short.

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032

1st quarter we jumped out to a 21-0 lead, thanks to 2 picks, one being a pick 6. 2nd quarter the score was 28-7, LSU, then Clemson scored 17 straight points to end the 2nd quarter. Halftime score 28-24, LSU. 3rd quarter both teams scored 7 points. End of the 3rd, score was 35-31. 4th quarter Clemson was on our goaline about to take the lead when freshman LB Murphy forced a fumble at the 3 yard line and we recovered it. We marched down the field and scored a td. Clemson then put together their own scoring drive and cut our lead to only 3, after a 2pt conv. We recovered the onside kick and won. LSU beats Clemson, 42-39. POTG was freshman LB L.Murphy who finished with 7 tackles, 1 sack, FF and a pick 6.

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032


Lucked out should have had one more int late, but was caught for a td. Also got one int late I wasn’t expecting. Gotta get better ball placement, ordered new glasses but won’t get them til maybe week 5, keep missing some people that are lower than the route.

So you not gone tell the full story huh?

RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032

Aight Arch here's the update since youve been out of the loop with all these phone calls... My bro FaceTimed me while he was playing his game, he ended up leaving the phone on and turning towards the tv so I actually got to see abt 3 qtrs of it.. He lost but thought if he had ran all game it would be way too easy so I said go ahead and use your restart and do whatever you gotta do to win so we'll know for sure and I wont have to guess off the stats.. He went to a running pb and SC actually stepped on their rush defense alot and he was about to lose again.. I said go back to your old pb and do one more, if SC wins a 3rd time then the settings are good but if not then these might get easy over time.. that game SC was up but kinda laid down and he came back and won

My game played kinda tough but some of my pics were real bs so I didnt know if it was an EA game or my 99ovr QB sucks or the settings were just playing weird like last season so I replayed mine and got an easier win too.. both of my games were last night

I told my brother Ima toss both of our wins and we gone replay both tonight.. If we both win I'll be back in the lab but if at least one of us loses we might be ok with these settings, 2 Ls will be even better.. Usually with a new set the first game is harder but once you get use to your team and the settings you start winning plus doing a replay right after is easy since you use your halftime adjustments from the jump, it's only harder if they just EA you.. so tonight should tell me alot

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032

I lost my fault bc of ints. Think I should have taken this game somewhat easily. 38-28 4 ints. So idk what to think. We’ll see how easy it is vs Hawaii next week. Feel kj Costello at Mississippi state this year. Kid was terrible with decisions and placement.

[emoji91] 10 MINNESOTA vs 15 LSU [emoji91]

LSU gave us a show last week Clemson but this week theyll have stiffer competition. Minnesota is a hungry team who feels like they didnt get the respect they deserved after winning the B1G last year. They have a physical squad who is solid at literally every position this year. This matchup is a little difficult to predict because Minnesota has more talent on the field but I dont know if its possible to hold LSU's explosive offense in check. LSU's 3 interceptions and 470 yards of total defense were the only weaknesses that they had last week, If Minnesota shows up and can get in the ball park of those theyll have a chance. Im betting that LSU fixes both however and wins this one.

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032

Louisville vs 7 Miami

1st
We take the opening drive all the way down the field but get stuffed on back to plays on the 1 yardline. 3 and out LOU. We move it down again but miss a fg from the 18 because my game was lagging the whole time like I was playing somebody (think my ps3 is near death tbh). Next play they make an 80 yd run to the outside.7-0

2nd
We go deep on 3rd down and its picked off. Not much offense this qtr, they slowed me down and I saw they were trying to bully me like UF did, I got something for it now. Later LOU gets a fg with 1:05 left to make it 10-0. We go 2 minute drill and miss a 2nd fg bc of lag.

3rd
We get a stop then finally get on the board with a good drive that Ross finishes. 10-7. After another stop we take the first lead on a 9 yd pass to Mack in the endzone.

4th
They respond with a long drive and get a 47yd fg out of it. 14-13 MIA. We get a 3 and out after getting stuffed on a FB dive. They go deep and my corner does the runaway, 59 yds. 20 yd td pass the very next play but we stop the 2pt. 19-14 LOU 5:03. Long drive living on the edge with 1 or 2 4th down attempts ends in a 10 yd in by the TE that splits the zone and goes for a 36yd td. 2pt good 22-19 MIA with 2:23. 3 and out forces a punt because they were too deep and Ross doesnt let them get it back. We survive an annoying laggy game on the road in the rain. S/O to Graves throwing his first career game winner [emoji36]

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032

Offense and defense both started out hot and at the end of 1st quarter the score was 14-0, LSU. 2nd quarter we were about to score another td but we threw a int in the redzone. Minnesota scored a td off the turnover. Halftime score was 17-7, LSU. Minnesota scored on their opening drive of the 3rd quarter. On our next drive we throw a pick but the defense forces Minnesota to punt. 4th quarter we're up 27-14 but Minnesota scores a td with 2:40 left in game. They don't go for the onside kick. So i make Minnesota waste their timeouts, then run the clock out. LSU beats Minnesota, 27-21. Super Lb's are back with this slider set, so watchout when you're throwing over the middle.

SC vs Georgia is a rivalry that goes back a long time and is always the 2nd game of the year for each school, but this is the first time in a long time that the game had this much weight. Georgia was one play away from a Championship ring last season against OU. They lost some starters to the league but still have one of the most talented teams in the country hands down. SC however is still my sleeper pick for the season with Baker leading the way at QB, who looked like a one man team last week against Mississippi State. These teams are both pretty loaded but I want to see how Jason Baker handles the pressure because when he's at his best he can beat a team like Georgia. He has help around him so its not like he has to do everything, but the weight of this game specifically is definitely on his shoulders if they want to prove that they are one of the best teams in the country. Im on the fence because I think Georgia is still a deeper team but Im going to put my faith in Baker.

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2031-2032

7 MIAMI vs LA TECH

1
La Tech gets ball first and scores on a 44yd run because of some broken tackles. We get to midfield but have to punt. We force a punt too after getting a sack that killed their drive. Solid drive gets us to fg range and we get a 42yd fg to get on the board. 7-3 Tech. 1st play we blitz and they run a stop route and break the tackle, 76yds. 14-3 Tech.

2
We grind out a long tough drive but can only get another fg out of it. 14-6. 50yd pass behind the zone leads to a 21yd fg and they extend the lead with 2:38 to go before the half. 17-6. It takes the full 2 minutes but we march it down and Ross finally gets us 7 on the board. 17-13 Tech.

3
We get the ball and get 3yds on back to back runs, 3rd and 4 I go play action but get flushed all the way out of the pocket and nobody tries to get open. The play lasted so long I was waiting for someone to break and end up throwing a dumb interception and knew it. Tech with a very short field goes 3 and out however and take a fg. 20-13. We get it back and get 3rd and long again and because of the pressure deep in my territory their 8 man zone confuses me and throw another bad pass thats picked. Defense holds again for a fg. 23-13. We get back to the ground game and Ross and Jones get us down field but we have to take another fg, the youngster hits the crossbar short on a 50yder. Still 23-13 Tech.

4
We force a punt but the pressure to score is all the way and they arent showing any weaknesses. We march it down in 3 minutes and Ross gets into the endzone again in the goalline. 23-20 Tech with 5:15 left. They send 2 people out on deep routes and nobody else, throw it to the middle of the field where nobodys at, then the WRs runs back to catch it but my corner doesnt break at all. 68yd td. 30-20 with 4:50 left. We get another grinding miracle drive that ends in a 1yd goalline run by Ross. 30-27 with 1:56 and 2 time outs. We BARELY force the 3 and out force a punt with 1:00 left. We only get 3 plays off because on 3rd and 1 my RB gets grabbed and runs backwards to make sure he doesn't get the first. Clock is running and instead of going for it on 4th and 1 call for the fg and make it. 30-30

In OT they get it first and get the first 1st down, but on 3rd and long they pass it to double coverage in the endzone and we drop the easy pick for the win. They take a fg. 33-30. We get it and run 5 straight times with 5th going into the endzone. Jones gets hit in the legs and fumbles at the 1 yd line into the endzone and we lose instead of scoring the game winning td. Gonna be a long weekend.
