Game Automatically Subbed Starting WRs Out

[wjcorner]

I'm playing against Miami with GA Tech, and after we get a TD that puts us 7 points in the lead in the 4th, I believe, the game decides they don't want my receivers to play anymore. In the formation subs, it has all my bench players in...I try to sub my starters back in, it won't let me. It's like my 4th receiver on up is banned from the field. They aren't in the injury report(it would've been quite the play to injure 4 receivers at once) and everybody else can be switched around/subbed(QB, HB, defensive players). Weird, any fix or will I have to try and win with my back-ups?

I've seen my subs put in during blowouts (both for or against me) but never seen it in a close game.

Them kids must have flirted with the coach's daughter on the sideline!

Did you adjust your "auto-sub" %s for WRs? If you did, you may want to lower them a bit. Others experienced a similar effect with their RB if they had sub in/sub out at 85/90 or so.

You wore your players out.

I have had this happen to me too with the starting RB being subbed out permanently in the 4th quarter. I had mine around 85/90 too.

The thing is that having it at 85/90 was perfect because the starter would run about 3 plays then sub out for 1-2 plays before coming back in. Just like in real life. I hope EA patches this!

With the default sub in/sub out at 60/70 or whatever it was, the RB's would rarely, if ever come out of the game. They'd only cede like 2-4 carries per game to the backup.

Even at 85/90 I didn't see consistent enough substitution. Backup saw maybe a carry or two a game if I ran the ball ~40 times, which is completely unrealistic.
