Re: If the game doesnt want you to win... YOU WONT!

Just had a game like this against BC in my FSU dynasty. Boston College hung 59 points on my defense. Their RB ran for over 300 yards and I'm not exagerating when I say he broke atleast 20 tackles. IT didnt matter what I did, I was going to lose.

.... Was this your first play from scrimmage?

Cause if not... then you should have just kicked the FG.

Notre Dame was making it's last drive to attempt to score a touchdown, and on 3rd and 10 for some reason the QB audibles to a run to the right. Upon making contact with my defender, the RB and the football disappears and this happens (I let this run for about 30 minutes):



ND had time for one or two more plays. It's a shame I didn't get to see the game out.

So no, there isn't any "rubber band" style stuff in this game. Not like Forza or Gran Tourismo or something. A bad team like Wake Forest can spring up to beat ranked teams like VT or ND. But maybe from a very cynical point of view if the game does not want you to win it will freeze you out or take away the ball so you can't win. Because the game seems to have no problem freezing or bugging out all those times I've lost

This happened to me once but it went in my favor.
