Start off the game as the team you don't want to be. Make subs for them first. Then play the kickoff for the team you are playing against (It's just the kickoff!) and then switch beck to your own team.

Turn fatigue up, and turn sub out to a pretty high number also.

I'll try the fatigue thing, but like I said, I think the Sub In/Out again only works for the User.

Why not? I'd say at least half the time the backup HB gets a carry IRL, it's to spell the starter.

I'll also try the "switch to the other team and edit their Sub In/Out sliders" thing.

Sure man. But a true 2 rb system, not just a team having backups, are about a specific strategy and alternating skill sets. The computer will not sub in the 270 pound RB because it is on the goaline. That is my point.

Start the game with 2 controllers. After the kickoff, go to the other team, and make any changes you desire, then put the controller back to the middle.

I don't think you can do "Sub In/Out" changes mid-game

No, but you can do formation subs, like TE in the slot, both HB's in shotgun, OLB's at DE for Dime and Nickel. Or put that big bad bruiser in at HB for the Goaline set. This really adds alot to the game. You can make your opponent at least use the proper personnel. An I'm not sure, but probably put the right guy in the Wildcat.
