[emoji3588] - if you have a specific passing attack (short quick passes, attacking a specific defender, etc) just try and vary the formations/plays but you can use a strategic attack
[emoji3588] - Running a simple handoff is fine even if it's repetitive (ex big back just runs dives, small back just runs tosses)

[emoji91] 12 SOUTH CAROLINA vs 3 LSU [emoji91]

LSU is doing something this year that they rarely do and thats starting the season on a losing streak. They only lost 2 games last season and both came at the hands of Miami with the 2nd being in the National Championship. That gives LSU a sense of confidence going into games like this because nobody else has gotten the better of them, but South Carolina hopes to take advantage of that. LSU did have a few games that went down to the wire last year but the teams couldnt finish. I think SC is actually one of the few teams that matches up well with LSU even tho it feels like David vs Goliath with anybody who faces LSU. The Tigers defense on paper could be the best in the country this year but if SC can be patient on 3rd downs and move the chains they can keep this game close.

Pre: LSU 38 SC 28

I did make one change that hopefully works how it should. I changes CPU Pass Coverage from 100 to 30. 30 is what we use to have it one where they played real tough and sometimes mirrored. My hope is that with the way players move on these as far as taking actual foot steps with everything they will be tough and physical in man to man but can still be crossed. Also QBs might throw a few off passes so if the passing percentages go down a little bit its a win. I'll change anything I need to in week 7.

RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034

If the settings play weird it's because I made the 30/100 change last week

[Jags0492]

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034

Billings got the start since it was supposed to be a easy game. #idnt do bad only a few bad accuracy passes, Guidry got a bs int. (Idk if I flicked down before up but) it was short 10-15yds and left 5-8yds. He also had a few accuracy issues. Defensive change coming. Speedy rb is out for 8 weeks, big back sr. Fumbled again having the highest carry with 87............ he is done for the year no jk

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034

No pass rush the whole game from my defense. That led to their Qb having all day to throw, he finished with 529 passing yds... Cook still loves to throw at least 1 or 2 passes a game right at the other teams db's. Outside the 2 bad throws by Cook, he played well. All of his other incomplete passes were throwaways. Good luck if you play a defense that runs nothing but man coverage, the db's run the routes better then your wr's will lol. Overall the defense played like as* 95% of the game, I really couldn't even say if my cb's played bad, no cb can cover a wr for 8 to 10 sec's. Offense did their thing tho, starting 4 former 5 stars at wr helps tho. LSU beats South Carolina 55-45.

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034

You just put up 55 points on a 95 overall defense... I still don't understand how we ever beat you lol

[emoji91] 1 MIAMI 0-0 vs MISSISSIPPI ST 1-0 [emoji91]



In Miamis 2032 championship run they only had one bad game and only one loss. Those came on the same day in the state of Mississippi. Boogie has become a coach infamous for playing down to the competition in games he should dominate, like last week when he opened the season with one of the top QBs in the country on the bench and his 4th best QB starting. They crawled out of what shouldve been a blowout. The flip side to this is that he also has a reputation of playing up to the competition in big games. Last year he beat Miami, the year before Georgia, the year before that was LSU. His teams struggle with consistency but when he locks in its a nightmare for his opponents. Mississippi State lost their skat back for 8 weeks and arent sold on Johnson their power back, so the game will fall on Guidry. Miami on the other hand will lean heavily on their run game for balance. Chase Brown was a redshirt freshman in this matchup last year and people saw he could play, but he didnt have the best overall performance. This year its personal for him. Canes will start several other new faces so this will be no walk in the park unless their defense plays absolutely crazy.

Pre: MIA 35 MSST 27

[emoji91] BIG GAMES [emoji91]

🟢 8 TEXAS (0-0) vs 17 SOUTH CAROLINA (0-1)
- The Gamecocks lost in primetime last week but Triplett put on a show at QB. Texas is built very similar, could be another shoot out. 2 tough teams.

🟢 19 STANFORD (0-0) vs 2 LSU (1-0)
- LSU will be favored in every game they play this year, but they do have a few games against some exciting teams, Stanford is one of them.

🟢 6 NEBRASKA (0-0) vs TEXAS A&M (0-0)
- Nebraska finished last season on a beautiful run but they did lose their Heisman candidate at RB. Last year means nothing now, TAMU can play [emoji599].

🟢 24 MIAMI OH (0-0) vs 12 ARMY (0-0)
- Army has put themselves in the conversation yearly, but Miami OH has ALOT of people high on them, including Herbstreit whos calling the upset.

[emoji599] 4th down rule clarity [emoji599]

Inside 35 is fair game UNLESS youre up by MORE than 7.. if youre up 8+ its a fg or punt

ex: up 21-14 inside 35 you can go for it

4th Qtr its fair game anywhere if its tied or youre down, inside 35 rule is 8+ in the 4th

Before 4th just be realistic if youre down 14+

I throw 80% of my passes around the middle of the field, that's where you guys user most of the time. So it takes away a lot of what i normally run or when I do pass around there, it's 50/50 on if the game will let you guys react and get a good animation. Plus U5 games are also where I get EA'd most tbh.

RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034



NEWS OUT OF MIAMI
The defending champions have officially announced that the RS Sophomore Jason Ratliff will be the starting QB. The battle between Ratliff, Smith, and true freshman Jay Murphy was less of a competition than the coaches and fans hoped for. Murphy was expected to EE and get to Miami in the spring but was not cleared by the NCAA by the deadline so he joined the Canes in the fall, which was not enough time to truly compete for the starting spot. Ratliff has the only experience on the team so they went with his as the starter based on consistency and game experience. Smith and Murphy will play if needed but as of now the Canes hope to stick with the same formula that lead to last year's National Championship which is a pocket QB who can manage the game, a power RB, and a tough defense.

Canes will open this week at Hard Rock Stadium against Mississippi State

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034

1st half was all defense. The offense scored no td's in the 1st half, our only td came from a 72 yd user pick 6. Stanford got their only td late in the 2nd quarter, Halftime score 16-10, LSU. 2nd half both offense's got going. We took a 20 point lead in the late 3rd or early 4th quarter. Stanford came back tho and took the lead with 34 seconds left in the game. Cook lead our team into fg range and as time expired we kicked a 41 yd fg to win. LSU beats Stanford 40-38. A little EA this game in the 2nd half for Stanford but overall it was pretty good, especially the 1st half. Its been awhile since the CPU has stopped my offense from scoring a td without any EA magic.

Re: RIVALS LAST RUN 2033-2034

I knew you wouldn't start that freshman Qb smh... Mills, looks like beast at FS tho.

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] only because of the setting switch.. I didnt want to test out both on some settings that wouldn't help or be off in the preseason so I left it.. 2 things that happens the most in practice is Ratliff getting sacked because he's slow and Mills getting an interception lol
