Try this out.

Depending on the team I'm playing against, I've been able to keep the CPU pass percentage at or slightly below 60% on average. Sometimes they do better, sometimes worse. I'm on the 360 (no patch) but I've lowered the CPU WR Catch(THIS SLIDER WORKS ON 360) rating to 35. It helps. BTW college players do drop passes. AT 35 the CPU averages 4 or 5 drops per game. They are not the wide open drops of NCAA 2005 either.

Most importantly, USE ALL TOOLS AVAILABLE. On Heisman, you can't just call plays and hope for the best. Isn't that what we want?

Defensive Keys-Calling the right key is very helpful for coverage AND Pass rush. I average around 10 sacks/hurry/knockdowns per game and I do get pressure without blitzing.

Gameplan-Use tight zones. When the QB is thinking of throwing that quick .00005 pass, they'll think again if you have the zones covered.

I also use the Swat (Conservative) option on pass defense. Your players are more likely to make a play on the ball than when they are going for the interception.

Key Receivers-This helps a lot. I like to key any impact receiver on occasion.

Good luck man.
Ding ding ding........We have a winner. This is exactly how I play. I play default Heisman because I was unaware any of the sliders work on 360. Switch up your defenses. use all of the tools available, and switch up your gameplan based on down and distance. Granted, some QB's will still go robo from time to time i.e. getting the ball off in a millisecond, or worse the superhuman avoid sack at warp speed and throw on the money but, I've still had success. I've been labbing with only top 25 teams and I've had QB's go 5-20. So, it is possible just not easy.

On a side note, which sliders do work on the 360?
