Re: Do you play with your college?

Going to a community college so no.

I can't play as my favorite schools in dynasties I want to be serious in, because I have problems letting them lose.

Re: Do you play with your college?

It's the only team I ever play with, I don't feel right not playing with them, I just can't get into it otherwise, I feel like something is missing from the experience, just as I do when I am watching a game in real life.

Unfortunately, since my school is Alabama, it's hard to find a game with anyone other than Oklahoma because they are stout from top to bottom the past 2 years, and the only team other than LSU (which most people still won't play with) in the SEC that is like that.

Whatever though, call me stubborn for playing with my alma mater (class of 2011) or whatever you wish, I have lost to good teams and teams that most would consider not so good, and I'm a firm believer that you can beat anyone with anyone within reason, even in the "flawed" ncaa 12 game. It's all in how you change the strategy, and making the right calls in the right situations. And honestly, I think, though it does happen on occasion (yes, even to Alabama), I've rarely seen the game clearly screw one team out of a win.

I do kinda wish you could play even teams online though, so people would quit whining about me playing with the #2 team in the case that I win, or calling me a sorry player when I lose because I play with them.

I think my problem is I have too much of an attachment to how the VT players actually play and how the coaches actually call the game, so when I deviate from that it just doesnt feel right.


I'm basically the same, except i'm not playing with VT this year b/c Logan Thomas apparently isn't a very good "video game" style quarterback; well not my style at least.

But I'll prob start a dyn with them anyway after the patch. I just need to recruit a 4.2 QB. Haa.

Re: Do you play with your college?

I'm in two online dynasties - one as Mizzou (my alma mater) and one as Utah. It's really weird playing with Utah. I much prefer playing with "my team".

Re: Do you play with your college?

I'm about as big of a diehard WVU fan as you will find but very rarely do I run a dynasty with them. Using WVU becomes more of a statistical job for me than a fun game. I always find myself trying to balance out their offense close to how it plays out in real life. In other words, if they have a WR with twice as many catches as any other player on the team in real life, I find myself forcing the ball to him too much in the game and not using the other guys as much. Maybe it's just a me problem, but I have more fun when I know less about the team I'm using, which is why I often opt for small conference programs.

Re: Do you play with your college?

didnt go to the school I play with, but its the closest big school (Terps) and there is some state pride in it, I suppose. Whenever I create players they are usually from my home town and whatnot. wish I could set the high school though

Should be a wide open conference with all four of the top teams gone to the MWC. Big fish/small pond concept there I guess. Good luck. I'm using Idaho right now and having a great time.
