Simulation Upsets... Is there a fix yet?

Haven't been around for a while, has anyone came up with a work around for correcting all the upsets? I've finished a good bit of seasons and have only seen one undefeated team play for the title (South Carolina which seems to play for the title every year). Just curious... if there is a fix for this I will play this game all winter... if not I'm done with it. when Alabama got dominated by Western Kentucky the other day it was my final straw.

Thanks.

I go manually into all T25 games, And try to prevent silly things like a C+ rated San Diego State beating a A+ Rated LSU team. I simulate games that I think either team could win though.

This. I have manipulated scores in my dynasties for years now. It seems like whatever the User team needs to happen will happen. I will sim, resim, and save until I get the desired result. I'll have toss up games every week where a possible upset could happen. I try to make the end of my seasons resemble to the ends of real life seasons. With a few unbeatens and 1 loss teams in the top 10.

And OU never should have lost to TCU in was it 04 or 05? And Michigan never should have lost to Appalachian state. Lol crap happens all the time. Now maybe the sim engine is a little crazy but than again college football has so much more parity in it now than it did even 5-10 years ago. So maybes its more accurate then we give it credit for.

Everybody knows KSU was NEVER that talented a team to even start with. Hell, they were on my upset list almost every week. Gotta look PAST the rankings and look at how talented a team actually is.

There are less upsets if injuries are turned off.

Then the EA guys got it right with their sim engine. The SEC is over rated. No one in their right mind would have thought Ar- Kansas would have been beat by ULM. They got beat though. Every conference is the same. Except, one has been hot recently due to scheduling. Playing FCS teams this late is BS...but smart as hell from a NC standpoint.

Rankings are crap until the end of the year. even then they are ****. Bama dropped to #4 after losing again at home like last year. Screw ESPiN and their agenda. Drunk incoherent rant over. LOL
