EA needs to stop working on non-gameplay features and fix the horrible A.I.

C.P.U. throwing too many picks, and not throwing down field enough are the only of these that I see. The other things you mention have not been a problem for me at all. I'm sorry your experience has been so negative.

So I'm playing as South Carolina against ULL. Tied at 14 after the first quarter. Fortunately, I had FOUR INTS returned for TD in the 2nd quarter and 1 in the 3rd.

My secondary was able to pick off 9 INTs by the end of the game with a 66-14 route. Funny, because ULL dominated TOM and yardage!!!!!!

This will be locked, theres numerous threads on this. But throw to the open man.

I didn't give up. The game is still somewhat playable. The INT issue is a major problem. 'Nuff said.

*edit*

Throwing to open receivers isn't going to change the fact that the User's DB's pick off all the CPU throws. It's not throwing INT's that's the problem...it's having your defense pick too many of them off which sucks. I make great throws and rarely throw an INT unless I deserve it. My DB's pick off everything that's thrown in the air. It's usually brought back to the endzone too.

Obviously, there is something to the interception thing this year, but there are SO MANY other threads about it. I rarely say a thread should be locked, but enough already.

For what it's worth, there is definitely a plethora of INTs in this edition (both by the the user team and the CPU if you aren't REALLY seeing the field) and no, it's not nearly close to being a gamekiller.
