15 minute quarters?

[tessl]

Has anybody tried create a slider set with 15 minute quarters? I use coach mode and prefer the full length game but can't find a slider set which is realistic with the 15 minute quarters.

This game doesn't have a universal game clock run-off like the Madden games do, and the CPU generally snaps the ball right away at the LOS with around 25-30 seconds on the play clock, so 15 minutes would just get you way too many plays. There really isn't a way to make anything above 9-10 minutes realistic.

Thanks for the reply.

There is no question the game requires major slider adjustments. My impression of most slider sets on this forum is people are trying to get 15 minute quarter stats from 9 or 10 minute quarters and as a result offense is too high. These sliders are a good starting point.
