    No Close games?

    Just finished my first season in dynasty with Marshall on All american. I went 9-3. I had not one close game score wise. My smallest win was by 11 and my smallest loss was by 13. Most games were in the 20's for point differentials.

    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Maybe momentum plays too big of a factor or maybe its just coincidence

        AA settings is just way to easy for most people. I haven't fooled with the sliders right now. But I'm looking into doing that within the next few days. But if you want closer games. Then play on Heisman are Adjust the AI sliders on AA settings. That's the best solution I can give you if you want the AI to play more aggressive agaist you.

          I have been playing on All-American and my first three games of the season with New Mexico University have all been close. Although I am 0-3, I lost each game by a single touchdown (that would be close loses to #4 Oregon, Texas Tech and #17 Utah). If my receivers would just stop dropping a ton of passes I'd probably be 2-1.

            I needed overtime to beat Utah and I hit a 50 yard pass with 30 seconds left to beat Miami. Both fantastic games.

            That was with Pitt.

                Haven't had this problem yet. The only team I blew out is Eastern Michigan in my Virginia dynasty.

                      have not had a problem with a lack of close games so far. I beat tennesee @ tennesee with miami 31-30, lost at home to fsu 13-10, won with oregon @ penn state 20-14, and just beat osu in my dynasty 21-17 with miami. all on 8 minute quarters, heisman, with slightly adjusted sliders. I'm having a great variety of games that are usually close when it calls for it (got blown out @ usc 59-21 with oregon, though).

                        Ditto for me. I'm running a Nebraska dynasty and our game against Washington was 21-17. I had to make a last minute touchdown to seal the victory.

                        On a side note, Jake Locker is a BEAST.

                          Playing my first dynasty season as Baylor. I'm 4-1 and 2 of those have been close games decided in the final seconds. My only loss was a heartbreaker against UConn where I dominated in the 1st half and then got shut down offensively in the 2nd half, gave up some big plays on defense. Drove down the field in the final seconds for the win (down by 4 and needed a TD) only to be stopped at the 1 yard line....just like the 99 Super Bowl. Then I won on a game winning FG against #6 ranked TCU in the last second after starting out being down 10-0 in the 1st quarter and battling my way back and overcoming a couple of backbreaking fumbles.

                          I'm loving this game.

                              I had a great SEC champ game Bama (me) vs UGA CPU) and it went 4 OT's. I won 79-77 cause they didnt convert their last 2-point conversion cause of a dropped pass. we left our D's with the cheerleaders apparently
