Re: Are you a Conservative or Aggresive player?

I am a conservative player. I will play a field position game.


My offense is power running based. Mixed with west coast passing. I rely on quick routes and timing. The only time I get aggressive is play action looking for the deep route and after a turnover by my opponent(i consider it going for the juggular)

On defense I play a lot of zone coverage and try to keep everything in front of me. I will blitz from the linebackers a good bit, but very rarely with a safety or corner

That's basically precisely how I play. I guess I developed it from getting angry at turnovers by my team and giving up the deep ball to lose games. Going balls out does have its advantages in a video game but I think a conservative approach is safer and more satisfying when I win a game. Also, when I lose a game, I know I just lost to the other team, rather than beat myself with turnovers, etc.

Re: Are you a Conservative or Aggresive player?

On offense I'm mostly conservative all though I will occasionally play agressive if I need to. On defense I'm always conservative. I'm a zone guy. I like to use zone coverage to cause coverage sacks. I'll happily give up yards as long as it means I don't give up big plays and easy scores.

On offense I like to take what the defense gives me. If they're going to play it conservatively I'll happily take 3-4 yards every play. On defense I'm happy to give 3 yards a play. My philosophy on offense is as long as I don't make silly mistakes I'll be fine. That's why I'll take what the defense gives me and limit my risks. On defense My philosophy on defense is the more plays I make the opposing team run the more chances they have of making a mistake and either turning the ball over or failing to convert.

Offensively I'm very much like Boise except not as aggressive. I use the Boise playbook but I don't throw it deep nearly as often as they do. Defensively I've switched to the 3-4. Since the switch I've given up more yards but less points. Typically I own the turnover margin and win games because of that.

Re: Are you a Conservative or Aggresive player?

I vary from game to game. If I am outmatched, I play to get the lead and waste time on offense so there is less time for my defense to screw up. But usually when I am Miami I am not outmatched that much so I tend to take risks and I usually like to run and run and run, then go deep with a pass, then run some more, then mix in some consecutive passes.

On defense I like to keep the offense guessing. I'll show blitz for two straight plays, but not blitz, then show it and blitz, then not show it and blitz. I just mix it up.

I'm aggressive on both sides of the ball. Probably pass about 65 to 70 percent of the time including many deep balls. I also blitz a lot on defense.

Re: Are you a Conservative or Aggresive player?

To be successful on defense in NCAA 12, you'll have to play extremely aggressive outside the 20, and extremely conservative in the redzone with your best/least fatigued DL spying the QB.

You're welcome.

Re: Are you a Conservative or Aggresive player?

Haven't given much thought about what to do on offense. I'm sure I'll have a pro style spread NE Patriot type playbook and control the clock, but I won't be afraid to no huddle shotty it if need be.

Aggressive. I want to score asap and put the pressure on the other team. My first play of the game I'm always looking for the deep ball to get a quick score and throw them off their game.

Defensively it depends, I can play very conservative or blitz a lot, depends on the opponent I'm playing.
