Ok, I have 2 more games to post up from my NCAA '10 dynasty for ps3, using 8 min quarters and Playmaker's Varsity sliders.

I put them in last night, 1st year of my dynasty with Virginia Tech, I was sitting at 4-0 on the year, had been blowing everyone out of the water, even alabama 66-42 at first of the year and miami 42-17, so I figured it was time for a change. So I put the sliders on, but I felt I had to tweak my qb accuracy down a bit, and cpu's up a hair, and push my pass blocking up a hair. I was beating duke 28-0 in 4th quarter, and after a huge 4th down stop on me, they found momentum and capitalized on my mistake and scored a td, 28-7. Then, they hold me 3 and out on next series stuffing my run, get the ball back, score 28-14. So at this point, I am startin to sweat, 4 minutes left in the game, they got the big MO, its on like donkey kong. So they kick the ball off to me, hold me 3 and out AGAIN, so i am forced to punt and I push em back deep and down the ball on the 4 yard line, mind you the last 2 drives were 81 and 92 yards, so at this point I am sweatin gun powder. So they drop back, nekos brown sheds the blocker and smashed the qb in the endzone for a safety, 30-14 with a hair under 3 minutes left. Kick the ball off to me, and again, they stuff my run game. But on 3rd down and 13, I drop back and hit a smash route to Darnell Roberts (they blitzed the house expecting run) and I take it for 7, to go up 37-14 with about a minute or so left in the game, and from there my defense stood strong. That was my first of 2 games. So I was like okay, that game played really realistically, but lets give it another shot, so I start my next game against Boston College, they are ranked #22, i am #5, and Kirk Herbstreit had picked them to walk the dog on me cause of my past defensive vulnerability. This game was a BARN BURNER! It was heavy rain, severe overcast, so it had a cold eerie feel to it, I loved the atmosphere. I was winning 24-7 in 2nd quarter, having no problems at all moving the ball on the ground, but could not complete a pass (ended up 19-37 on the day) the ball kept sliding out of their hands, which was so realistic. Well end of 2nd quarter, they get a touchdown after a huge pass play for 63 yards, then they shut me down, get the ball back, drive down and kick a 51 yard field goal with 2 seconds left that boucned off the cross-bar and through the uprights, to make it 24-17 at half. 2nd half was defense, defense, defense, something I am never used to, as all my games have been like college basketball games in terms of scoring. So they hold me throughout the 3rd quarter, and grab a field goal, game is 24-20 going in the 4th, of course I put my 4 fingers up cause at this point, I am like man these sliders are the real deal, this is real football here. So I finally mount a drive and hit Greg Boone on a 30 some odd yard touchdown pass to go up 31-20 with like 6 minutes in the 4th left ( I play 8 minute quarters). I am feeling confident at this point, but just as I do, here comes their offense...they drive all the way down the field on a 3 minute drive, but I hold them to a field goal inside the goal line, 31-23. I am like ok, get the ball back, run the clock down, game over right? WRONG! I get the ball, run it on first down, break it 23 yards, but I see there is a flag on the play, offensive holding, bring it back, 1st and 23...they ended up shutting my running game down, i go 3 and out, punt ball to them. On the next drive, they have a methodical drive, burn me up for 10 plays, 81 yards, and on the touchdown play, their running back runs on 4th down, breaks 2 tackles to the left, and looks like the computer pulled back on the highlight stick, and my linebacker went flying infront of him, and he did like this side dive to land across the goalline for the td...they come out in goaline formation on 2pt conversion, and convert, 31-31 with 1 minute 25 seconds left. So I am like ok, 3 time outs, over a minute to play, lets drive and get a field goal. immediately i come out in play action bootleg to the left sending all my receivers to wide side of the field, but they blitz the house and I have absolutely no body open and about 6 defenders in tyrod's face...so I swing out to the right with these guys on my heels, juke one defender and take it for about a 34 yard gain down to the 40 yard line, sitting pretty with about a minute left. Lets get one more pass play, run the ball, line it up, kick it, win the game. So on the next play, I did another play action to the left, different play, but this time, defender beats ed wang across his post foot and sticks his helmet in tyrod's chin as he is throwing the ball, it lofts in the air, and their linebacker picks it off, OH ****!!!!!!!!!!!! but wait, there is a flag on the play...come to find out, it was holding on dechristopher...great, so its declined, their ball with right at a minute left to play on my 40ish yard line. First play, they drop back, I put on man coverage and press the receivers, rashad carmichael jumps the pass for an interception! ALRIGHT, another chance to win! My first play, I drop back to throw, hit in the back, ball goes forward, d-end picks it off, OH MY GOSH NOT AGAIN and in field goal range this time. This is definately game over. First play they run, they drop back, throw across middle, and Hill (can't remember his first name) jumps the slant route and INTERCEPTION AGAIN, thats right 4 int's within about 20 seconds. So i get the ball, and on first play i get slammed for a sack with about 20 seconds left, so i let clock wind down going in to OT. They win toss, elect offense. So on first play, they drop back, I run cover 2, they have 2 wr's split left, he goes for the streak on inside receiver, my safety jumps it INTERCEPTION!!!!!!! ALRIGHT now lets run the ball, kick it game over. So i run it 3 times, pick up a first down, line up in the middle and kick the game winning field goal 34-31, VT. What a game says the announcers and I was really digging this game.
