realistic emotion

[lionelzeus]

Ive been reading about how this game is not realistic in so many aspects.
Lets talk about what the game simulates better than anyother sports game.
Emotion and momentum I dont know any other game that does it better.
I came to this realization the other day playing a Michigan vs Michigan St game.
Michigan St was undefeated and ranked 10th Michigan was ranked 4th with one lost.
Michgan St was playing at Michigan for a challenge I choose state.
I immediately drove down field on a well put together drive capped off by a 20yd TD pass.
I thought I was going to railroad Michigan after that first drive because it was so easy.
Well.. lets just say everything changed as the game progressed and the crowd got into it I could feel the momentum changed literaly. I knew I was in trouble because there D just got fierce I couldnt do anything. I lost the game 40-7 lol but it was one of the most realistic losses I ever had.

Personaly I think this game kills last years in every aspect its not even close. This is real college football. Would I like more offensive plays yeah but I would also like team specific defenses but we dont have that either. Bottom line this is a GREAT game just keep at it.
Its a steep learning curve. I had trouble passing on All-American at first but now I play on Heisman because All-American isnt challenging anymore. Well thats my 2 cents on the game.

I agree. My last two games have been nail-biters and I was on the edge of my seat for both of them (lost them both by the way). The ups-and-downs of the college game are very well translated in this year's game.

I agree also. I played the season opener between Syracuse and Purdue last night . It was a game of momentum changes. Purdue got out to a 17-0 lead. The crowd kind of went dead and Syracuse recovered a muffed punt and scored a TD which put them back into the game. The Boilers got the ball back with 1:08 left. They had a six play 92 yard drive capped by a 6 yd TD pass with 13 seconds left to win 31-30. It was a great game to play and to watch. The momentum changes were there.
