11 penalties for 155 yds. 10 dropped passes (really more). 3 of 16 on 3rd down. Gave up 441 yds rushing on 46 attempts. TD runs of 46, 54, 73 & 97.

Lost 45-40.

Yes, sometimes the game does decide you're not going to win.

But you're not going to convince most people here of that.

Wow! 11 penalties? What were they? I ask because you can use gameplanning to prevent having almost any penalty called against you. I would've changed my gameplan way before I hit 11.

offsides, false start, holding, clipping, and facemasks can all be set such that you won't be called for a single one of them.

I have almost all penalties set to the maximum cause there usually aren't any called. In fact, I usually let the celebrations go over board on scores so I can get more penalties. Even w/that, the most flags I've had marked off in a season never topped 30. I think I've had 6, 7 maxed in a game.

This game only 2 of those were unsportsman flags. I had 4 facemasks, 3 holdings, & 2 false starts.

I really hate @ the end when you get "Congratulations! You've had a greatest game score of...." I'm like "congratulations???!?!? I just lost, stupid!"

Are you on the PS2 or something? I didn't think that there were unsporstmanship penalties (and certainly not for celebrating) on the 360 (and most likely PS3).

most the time for me, the game says the CPU just can't win or simply sustain a drive to score any points.

I've yet to have a game on NCAA 10(360) where I thought the CPU "cheated" to win. don't think I've ever played a NCAA game without that feeling before.

not saying NCAA 10 is great or anything(cause it's not). I just haven't had a case of "cheating" CPU yet.

I've had that happen to me once on 360. I was ULL @ Wash.
But it's usually the opposite, as Solidice said.

Aside from what others may think, I often feel like most games are predetermined before the coin toss. You just have to play it out to see which way the game is going to go.
