Re: Kentucky
I'm a Kentucky fan.
On offense, as others have stated, your main weapons are Cobb at WR/Wildcat/throwing out of the Wildcat, as well as Locke at RB and in the screen and short passing game, since he's speedy.
Newton is no where near as fast in real life(atleast he didn't show us he was last year) as he is given rating wise in the game...that said, I'll take the 87 speed and like it. He should definitely start in anyone's dynasty with UK, don't even mess with Flatline, even though he's a 79 just like Newton overall, Newton's speed and year (Soph to Hartline's Senior) leaves great room for improvement by the 3rd year of your dynasty if you go with Newton, who will be a Senior by then.
The defense is an unknown in real life and in the game. They are not rated very highly but they shouldn't be. You will basically have to use a bend but not break attitude with the defense in your dynasty and hope you can just outscore most teams on your schedule as far as SEC games go....but the way you outscore them cannot be an aggressive run and shoot type offense, but rather an effective, ball control, pound it with Locke and Cobb in the wildcat, short passes,etc, offense that puts TD's on the board and chews clock, keeping the maligned defense off the field as much as possible.
