Correct, it's only the specified tourney for the team you're using. It looks like they include the 1st game of the tournament, i.e. ND/IU, for non-user teams and that's it. I noticed some teams with only 5-6 non-conference games due to this. What a bummer.

Sorry again, but it just seems that people do nothing but complain on these forums about the smallest of things.

To each his/her own. I just think that tournaments that EA has licenses for should be in dynasty mode whether the team you're playing as is in the tournament or not. I really do enjoy the game and my Gophers schedule isn't effected by this, but it's an issue I think EA should know about.

As a 360 guy, I must say I am way jealous! Hopefully we get our patch soon.

Yeah I think you'll get invited to one of the preseason tournaments each year after Year 1.

Well that sucks then. So where the tournaments like this before the authentic schedule patch and can you customize schedules for your first season?

I'm really not concerned by getting invited, I just find it odd that the other teams don't play out the tournaments.

Nice job with the roster, btw. You guys did great!

Can't describe it, but I'm not feeling the game play as much post-patch. Maybe it's the new initial game feel wearing off, but it seems to play tighter and more rigid.
