So at worst, they have the 23rd best defense in the game. EDIT: How do you embed videos on here so I can post some videos of the gameplay?

so u already have everyone done edited?

2011 Rosters. I plugged the ratings I gave for Lattimore and Richardson into my 2011 rosters and played a game to see how they felt, and to show you guys how they play. I just need to know how to embed video so I can post some videos for you guys.

I couldn't have described his running style better myself. Marc Tyler is a big back that runs like a small back without much top end speed, which is why most people, myself included, thought he was a better LB prospect out of High School. Here is how I would rate Tyler and Dillon Baxter for USC.

Speed:.................87....92
Agility:.................89....96
Acceleration:........91.....97
Strength:.............60....55
Breaking Tackle:....79....70
Trucking:.............76.....65
Elusiveness:.........94.....97
B C Vision:...........92.....82
Stiff Arm:............86.....74
Spin:..................70.....81
Juke:..................85.....93
Awareness:..........86.....80

Again, the strength number does not say he can't bench press 225 "x" amount of times, it is to dictate what type of running back Tyler is, and Tyler runs like a speed back without any top end speed. Baxter on the other end is all speed, and nothing but speed. He is the type of guy who will do a whole lot of nothing, but then as soon as you get the ball into his hands in open space, he is a blur.

That's a fair take on Tyler and Baxter. I don't necessarily agree with your STR ratings, but I understand how you're coming up with them and what you're trying to do.

Personally, I have a feeling that DJ Morgan is going to take the #2 RB spot and Baxter's role is going to be limited even further.

Morgan is a speed back that has put on about 20 pounds of muscle since he got to USC. He would probably be in the 94-95 speed range with good elusiveness/moves as well. I'm curious to see how he does this year, but I'm going to rate him somewhere above Baxter so that he will be the #2 back.

Wide Receivers 2012


There are many different types of WRs that make up the landscape of College Football.

• There are tall physical WRs (Blackmon, Jeffery, Floyd, Childs, Criner, etc) who manhandle any kind of press coverage and out muscle the jump ball when it is in the in the air.
• There are the quick as lightning jitterbugs (Broyles, Rodgers) who find holes in the coverage and slice through turning screens into big yardage.
• Then there are the WRs who are just productive (Moe). They run crisp routes, know where they are suppose to be, and do the most important thing a WR can do; catch the ball.
  

Justin Blackmon
Oklahoma State Cowboys

• Blackmon is not a burner, or someone who is going to trick you with savvy route running. He is going to run downhill and grab the ball at it's highest point and glide to the endzone.

Speed:.................91....93
Strength:.............64....64
Agility:.................90....81
Acceleration:........90.....89
Breaking Tackle:....82....82
Trucking:.............70.....65
Elusiveness:.........85.....80
Stiff Arm:.............56.....85
Spin:...................73.....73
Juke:...................80.....80
Catching……………...94……94
Spec Catch…….…..93…….93
CIT…………………..….92……96
Route Run……….....95……88
Jumping…………......89…….89


Alshon Jeffery
South Carolina Gamecocks

• Jeffery has the frame of a TE, but is more than fluid enough to be a dominant WR. He uses his size to shield himself from the defender, and given room he can get top end speed.
  

Speed:.................93....93
Strength:.............68....64
Agility:.................92....81
Acceleration:........88.....88
Breaking Tackle:....85....80
Trucking:.............75.....65
Elusiveness:.........86.....80
Stiff Arm:............66.....85
Spin:..................75.....70
Juke:..................85.....80
Catching……………..90….…94
Spec Catch………...93…….96
CIT…………………..….83……90
Route Run……...…..92……88
Jumping………...…..94…….89


Ryan Broyles
Oklahoma Sooners

• I gotta give to EA on Broyles. He is pretty much exactly how I had him rated in NCAA 11. Broyles makes his living sitting down in zones and beating coverage to the inside.
  

Speed:.................87....87
Strength:.............65....60
Agility:.................94....94
Acceleration:........96.....96
Breaking Tackle:....71....71
Trucking:.............58.....58
Elusiveness:.........93.....93
Stiff Arm:............56.....56
Spin:...................90.....90
Juke:...................89.....89
Catching……….….….96……96
Spec Catch……..…..92…….92
CIT………………..…….80….…80
Route Run……...…..94….…94
Jumping………....…..90…….90

Michael Floyd
Notre Dame Fighting Irish

• Like Blackmon, Floyd knows how to sky in the air and come down with the ball. He is pretty much a lock for six in the redzone,

Speed:.................90....93
Strength:.............64....64
Agility:.................89....81
Acceleration:........93.....87
Breaking Tackle:....83....78
Trucking:.............65.....65
Elusiveness:.........87.....75
Stiff Arm:.............69.....85
Spin:...................81.....73
Juke:...................88.....80
Catching..............91……91
Spec Catch…….…..91…….96
CIT………………..…….82……90
Route Run……...…..94……88
Jumping………....…..90……96

i like the ratings for these recievers very nice.

[pmurray20]

to be honest it might be easier for everyone if u went by team and not by position lol start with the top 25 and go from there lol. idk do u think u would have all the ratings by the 12? and also with the new tackling animations would u still use the same ratings for the defense?

[pmurray20]

also i have written down every rating u have shown us so far lol
