      Quadruple overtime loss to Nevada using my created team.

      Three way tie in the WAC going into the final game, all I had to do was beat lowly three win Nevada and I'm conference champ. I figured I'll hang 40 points on them by halftime and sub out my starters the rest of the way for the Hawaii Bowl, instead Nevada shows up to play and I spent most of the game playing from behind.

      It was one of those games where I was in disbelief at how good they were and continued to play loose and make huge mistakes. By the time the ball sailed over my TEs head on a failed quadruple OT 2-pt conversion play I was seriously shocked; dropped to third place in the conference and that was that.

        My closest finish was PITT 3 - PSU 0. I kicked a FG on my opening drive and that was it. PSU missed 4 FG's (3 40 some yarders and a 30 yarder that hit the left upright) and I missed 2 others (both of which hit the crossbar) lol. It was the craziest defensive game I had ever played. Neither team even made it into the redzone.

          I also had a four overtime thriller against Michigan State that I won 46-40 when I picked their quarterback off in the endzone.

          Wayy back, in a Western Michigan dynasty, I was playing the Rockets in Toledo. With like 30 seconds left, they scored a touchdown to go up by one. But on the two-point conversion, I picked off the pass and took it the other way for two points and a one-point victory

            My closest/best/most fun game. Just recently happened in my online dynasty. Year 6 FSU (me) vs Miami (other guy). He scores with 56 seconds left in the game to take the 31-27 lead. He is smart and playing quarters defense against the pass. I'm facing a 3rd and 11 and this happens:

            It was a great back and forth game the scoring picked up in the second half. It was 10-10 at half time.

              I was Texas going up against Texas Tech in Lubbock. I was ranked 3rd in the country at the time. I ended up losing the game 62-59 in 3 OT's. Very disappointing as my National Championship hopes ended.

                  Re: Whats the closest game youve ever been in?

                  Just finished this one:

                  #6 Troy State (10-0), looking for a few upsets of at least or 4 of the 5 other undefeated teams to even get in a bowl game, let alone the MNC (NCAA 04, released when TSU was an independent), playing 3-6 Vanderbilt, who was also looking at the possibility of a bowl. 17-10, not my usual dominance, but I had to punt to them with 0:57 left in the 4th. I'm able to get a little over 50 yards out of the punt, and they're pinned at their own 39 or so. For some reason I have trouble stopping them for the first few plays, and I give up a 1st down at the 45 (again, rough estimate). But I get into my groove, and it's 4th down with 0:30 left. I nearly had them, until they get a BS jump ball all the way at the 7 So they have 14 secs to make a play after a quick timeout and they have 4 chances to do it. First play, they almost caught it, but I hit him right as it grazed his hand. Second play, they run a single-blocker screen, and I'm able to tackle him at the 4. Third play, 4 seconds, the QB might've made the throw if he had put a little height on it, but I got the deflection. Game over? I looked at the clock and... 1 second left So I have to make one last play. 4th down then. Everyone is able to get behind the zone, so I need to find the ball with my defender. I find it, and bat it right down.



                  #1 greatest game, baby.

                    Not Close Just pitiful.

                    Last year of purdue dynasty. NC game vs USC. was down 3 quarters and was down 28-14 at the end of the 3rd. 5 minutes later, its 28 all and i have the ball at the USC 25-ish yard line, 3 Seconds left.


                    And i missed it last flick of the joystick. most pitiful kick ever. Wide Right and 5 yards short.

                    I got the ball first, and sure enough, 3 incompletions later, its same scenario. Can't happen twice right? WRONG.

                    But thank god i got a pick the very next play.

                    2nd OT-USC got the ball and scored on two plays.
                    When i got the ball, i went to by bread and butter dual hitch routes, and scored.

                    3rd OT-I scored on a 15-yard option keeper. when USC got the ball,Thier QB went 0-4 quickly.

                    42-35 Purdue
                    And may thy spirit live in us, Forever LSU

                      Re: Whats the closest game youve ever been in?

                      Last night, I had an amazing game with Middle Tennessee State. I was facing Troy, at home. I was getting murdered, and rightfully so, going into the 4th quarter, 30-7. 1st play of the 4th quarter, I was getting desperate, so I threw up a bomb to Cannon. He caught it, and next play, I went with Ace formation Streaks. Threw it up to Cannon, again, and he caught it for the TD. I got the 2 PT conversion. I forced a punt on defense, and then threw up 3 straight Hail Mary's. 1st one, got sacked. Last 2, incomplete. 4th and 15, I decided to try to catch Troy off guard. I ran it, straight up the middle. 68 yard run for the TD. I got the 2 point conversion, again. Troy was running down the clock, until I forced and recovered a fumble, on Troys 35 yard line. I went with the option, and Tanner broke a 35 yard run. I went for the XP, and boom, tie game. 30-30. Then going back and forth for the 1st 2 OT's, and then I got a TD, and had to go for the 2, and I made it. I then held Troy on 4 straight plays for a turn over on downs. I won the game, 52-44. It was such a good game, well from the 4th quarter on, lol.

                        Thats pretty much luck on the 68 yard up the middle on 4th down. Thats pretty much a prayer.

                          Ole Miss (me) Vs UF(CPU) on Heisman, custom sliders, Second year Dynasty (this was actually the other day) I played UF thinking I was going to lose I start the game out throw to picks then they unleash Harvin om me and they score two touchdowns on me first. Me wanting to just turn off the game I played it out I some how shut this team down completely getting sacks letting them complete short pass but no more yards after that I basically shut them down after the 2 early Td's they don't score in the secong Q and once in the 3th . Well it's about the 4th Q and I'm winning shock in a way and then it happens. UF goes off they start to score left and right I have a HUGE! lead so I'm thinking I'm safe. they score It's tied 42-42 (im like wow) with about 2 mins left in the Q so I run the 2 min drill drive down the field and I reach the goal line. I get sack first play time is running down I'm trying to avoid OT. I pick a passing play with about 40 seconds on the clock my OL forgets to block and I start running for my life I throw a pass in there and my WR cathes it between 3 men. I'm saying I freaking won great game. I kick it off they get about 20 yards time it running down about 20 sec's left Tebow throws a pass and gets about 20 more yards about 13 now and I pick a cover 3 (time is running down) EVERYBODY does what they play callss for them to do besides 2 key players the FS and the ROLB tebow throws a a quick to a Wr running a go where both FS and ROLB Are WAY out of position they slid to the right not left! so he cathes the ball and he runs away from everybody to score. Game now tied at 49. they get the ball in OT I send a blitz and tebow runs right past my man on the edge and throws a strike in the EndZone I get the ball first play my LT forgets he has a job sack second and 18 i throw incomplete pass third down it all ends with an Int. I was made but I was happy *** hell I could have a game like that. I notice that UF score 21 points in the 4th Q alone and I think I score 7 only. that was my closest game.

                                I was playing as Hawaii against Georgia in the first game and first year of my offline dynasty. They didnt have a fullback or a good receiver, so I threw to a fast TE about 28 times. He had a few hundred yards receving. So I got it to 34-35 at the end of the fourth quarter. I throw a few medium passes and go on a ninety yard drive to the three yard line. I start QB Kneeling to run the clock out, because they had gotten so many kick returns for TD's or really long ones at least. With like five seconds left I start smashing the timeout button so I could just kick the feild goal. I had two time outs left.

                                Well the button never pressed for some reason, and the time ran out and I lost.
                                That one was dissapointing.

                                About two hours ago, I kicked a last second 40 yard feild goal at LSU as USF with a freshman kicker. Won 27-24. Thats the second year of my offline dynasty.

                                I blewout a FCS whoknowswhat team with Georgia haha on Varsity. 111-3. That one was pretty bad. Countless pick 6's and a few hundred receiving yards for knowshon. I scored every time I ran a HB Slip Screen.
