    NCAA Football 13: Five Toughest Dynasties


    It's not easy playing in the SEC, especially when your program ratings lag behind the rest.

    There's no shame in using one of college football's powerhouses in Dynasty Mode.

    However there is another way to success. Winning title after title can be even more satisfying when you've overcome incredible barriers to get your team to the promised land. So what are the top five toughest programs to turn into powerhouses in dynasty mode? I've compiled my own list of the top five toughest and while these aren't the five worst teams in the game, they all offer a pretty tough challenge to build and maintain success. Two of my top five teams are actually pretty good in year one but all of them should be challenging to use in Dynasty Mode, even for experienced players.

    Great read! I'm thinking Vandy might get a nod for being a bottom-feeder in the SEC in a state where they have to fight for recruits with UT.

      Maybe I missed something but the only reason Or State is on the list is because they are a 2* in the Pac12?

      What about Vandy, Duke, or UK?

        Duke would be tough, too; I agree. Kentucky might be a little easier than Vandy, but still an underdog in a loaded conference.

          Texas State? I've been doing a dynasty with them and it's tough to build up the program.

              Great Read the only one I don't agree with is Oregon St. they are very manageable.....I'd put Vandy being more difficult to do dynasties with
              From 1983-1996 Miami went (144-24)

                I used Indiana last year and it was a difficult task. I haven't played in the SEC in this game, so may have to give Eli's alma mater a go.

                    LA Tech shouldn't be too far from the list, solid team but it's a huge drop off with a huge amount of needs, FIU is in the same boat.

                      Spot on with Army. Their playbook is tough, especially if the defense you're going with can lock down your running game. Other then Maples, the team is garbage in the backfield. Hassin is nice when receiving, but other than that he's nothing special.

                      Year 2 is always a mess. I love it.

                        Duke isn't too hard. They have some pretty good pitches, and the ACC is nowhere near as tough as the SEC.

                          I don't know if it's the same with Army but I did a Navy dynasty and was surprised to see Academic Prestige at a D+

                          The service academies are very academically prestigious schools. I'm a little disappointed.

                            I think UTSA should get some love on this list. Their team is terrible outside of their scrambling QB, I think the RB is around a 62 overall if I remember correctly. Their pitches aren't good at all either.

                              Agree 100%. The Academic Prestige in this game is mind boggling.

                              I did not know that the SEC was full of prestigious universities while the service academies where the equivalent of a community college.
