QB Acc 55%/55% Pass Block 45%/45% WR Catching 50%/50% RB Ability 60%/60% Run Block 45%/45% (offense code : wqUGuAA2) Awareness 75%/75% Knockdowns 50%/50% Interceptions 30%/30% Break Block 50%/50% Tackling 60%/60% (defence code : OTCpYfo2) FG Length 50%/50% FG Accuracy 50%/50% Punt Length 99%/99% Punt Accuracy 75%/75% Kickoff Length 95%/95% (special teams code : isF5RKS4) Notice all CPU and User %'s are equal. Very important. Penalty: False Start : 90% Holding : 50% (rarely see a holding call when not using slide protection, but i kinda like it that way. if you use slide protection against momentum on passing plays, you'll see some) Face Mask : 70% (see the occaional 15 yard facemask, haven't seen a 5 yarder yet. maybe if you turn it up higher you'll see them, haven't tried that yet) Off Pass Int : 90% Def Pass Int : 90% Clipping : 70% Int Grounding : 60% Roughing the Passer : 10% (they still call it at 0%) Roughing the Kicker : 0% (they still call it at 0%, bug!) Unsportsmanlike Conduct : 0% One time I roughed the CPU field goal kicker and he made the field goal. The CPU declined the penalty that would have given them an automatic first and took the 3 points. (interesting CPU logic...not saying i disagree but still interesting...) I use classic camera.

These were the sliders I was using. I am positive I would roll the scoreboard with 15 minutes on yours.

Human/AI

QB ACC 35/60
Pass Block 10/50
WR Catch 50/60
Running Back 20/50
Run Block 45/85

Def Aware 5/99
Knock Down 95/90
Int 0/0
Break Block 45/60
Tackle 50/50

FGL 30/0
FGA 0/0
PL 50/50
PA 20/99 (Appears to help the AI cover punts better)
KOL 50/50

Also for penalties, max out everything, except:
Holding 70%
Clipping 70%
Int grounding 60%
Roughing 50%
Rough Kick 30%
Celebration 30%

There you go, these sliders are a solid base set, just change the human settings to your liking, the AI settings really make a team perform to their ratings.

After playing all NCAA Football versions except 08 for original Xbox, I can now say that NCAA 2004 was by far the best. Very tough, realistic gameplay.

Whether it's the absolute best version or not I don't know, but I just started a dynasty in NCAA 06 last night, on All-American, with everything at default settings other than INT's and WR catching and had a more enjoyable game than anything I ever did on NCAA for the 360. ND vs. Pitt, final score 37-28 ND. Yes the impact RB's are over-powered, yes there are too many dropped passes, but the CPU actually TRIES TO WIN THE GAME. I bet I could play 5 or 6 games of NCAA 09 on the default AA settings and not give up 28 points.

Does it matter very much to you guys if some of the uniforms are not up to date or is the overall gameplay more important than the visual in this respect?
