Yes because you have to essentially move a 1-aa team to 1-a in the game to play with them during a dynasty. So their players would go in the draft export. However unless you create a player no 1-aa team in the game would ever have a player get drafted.

Exactly. I don't want EA to overblow this though. An upset should occur maybe once every 5 or so seasons. Of course, 1AA teams should beat weak 1A teams occasionally (but also not often, many weak 1A teams also beat up on 1AA's). 1A teams shouldn't blow out 1AA teams by over 60 points. Even top 10 teams shouldn't be able to do that. Many good 1A vs medium 1AA games are blowouts with a mid 30's to 40's point difference.

I agree with whoever said that the Wii version will just be a port of the PS2 version which already had these teams. I would like to see FCS teams, not necessarily D-2 teams, since EA would probably spend to much time getting them in then actually improving the game, but I will not buy this game if it sucks like last year, but I do wanna see these teams in. Because I know sometimes the Ducks play FCS teams, and I don't want to play "FCS South Division" or whatever they called them. It's just horrible how EA Shorts has been shorting us on their games.

I loved bringing the Div IAA teams into last gen NCAA. Should def. make that happen along with their rosters.

Here is what I just don't get. Back in the PS1 days, the NCAA series had a dynasty mode that incorporated the D1-AA/FCS teams in nearly all aspects. They recruited against the D1-A/FBS schools and had their own Top 10 during the season.

How in the world don't we have that anymore?

I mean yes it had its problems, I remember seeing Bethune-Cookman signing three 5*s one year.

The CPU turns the ball over all the time anyway.
My observations were mostly from playing online. It never seemed like I or my opponent gained an advantage from filling that momentum meter, even though it frequently got filled up at the start of a game with a FG to make it 3-0.

Seriously? It never seemed that way to me. I think you guys let the little meter get into your head.

Well, I was playing against the computer, so that may be why the meter was more prevalent to me.
