Accelerated Clock - Can I turn it off???

[canes21]

Like others have stated it runs until the last few seconds of the half to force a player to use the no huddle. I love the new feature, I just wish it had the options of Madden's but still ran all game long.

I would like to see the CPU mange the clock better. You always have an advantage over the CPU because it will not start running time off the clock until very late in the half/game. So, if you are down by 3 or 4 TDS with 7 minutes left in the game, the CPU will sort of help you out by snapping the ball with about 20 seconds left on the play clock.

I think you can turn play clock "on" instead of "off" and that might fix your issue. It's not in the game plan menu, it's in the house rules/settings, I forget which.

At the same time it sucks to lose when you have the last possession and the clock runs out because it accelerates.

That's football for you though. You shouldn't be able to run a ton of plays when you're under the 2 minute mark.
