  • The created team goes 2-0 against Navy and Air Force. At the end of the season "Record vs. Rivals" read as 0-0.
  • The game did not count either of those games towards 'Records vs. Rivals".
  • In the offseason I want to check out the impact that this will have on recruiting. I promise 3 players a winning record vs. rivals.
  • I sim the next season, and once again go 2-0 against Navy and Air Force.
  • Once again, my "Record vs. Rivals" reads 0-0.
  • I sim all the way through the offseason...I check promises made, and all three guys have have "Broken" next to their name and the promise that I made the previous offseason.
I don't know how this effects in-season recruiting visits, but I do know that it negatively effects the offseason.
I noticed this as well, the record part at least. At first I thought (read: hoped) that rivalry records didn't register until the end of the season and I never made to the end of a season to check.

Hopefully this can get it on that next patch.
