Re: no more "Hot blocks"

you can change your controller config, which makes L and R into passing buttons. The white and black buttons do something else then (throw ball away and stiffarm, i think)

Yeah, I'm feeling you. I know when I go back to try and play NCAA in a couple of days I'm going to be all messed up. I know they like to have deferenciating aspects to each game, but when it comes to the control scheme it makes no sense for them not to have it as uniform as possible.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

I dont see anything as to how to make them stay in and block
Backs can run slants. you just can't hot route them in the backfield. But the back in motion and then hot route him, he'll run a slant. TEs can run slants also, they just can't be in a stance on the line. Just as backs, motion the TE away from the line and then hot route him and it'll be a slant.
