    Will you play with/against Alabama?

    I am a HUGE alabama fan, born and raised in the northwest corner of Bama and i still live here. So my question is when i use them online are people going to call me a cheeser? and YES i am going to use them, ive suffered through years of them being a mediocre team in this series for way too long, ive used them when it was hard to beat Kentucky on a regular basis so ive put in my time and recieved many A$$ kickings so its time i get to give a little back. So if your life long favorite team was rated as high as the Tide, would you use them? Also will you guys refuse to play against them? Just curious on your thoughts on this one.

      I am a Bama fan, too. I will probably use them online on occasion. It's not my fault that EA overrated them; I shouldn't have to suffer by not using my favorite team because of someone else. I certainly will try my hardest not to cheese. For the most part, I will try to avoid using Alabama online. Offline, I will edit the teams and definitely lower Alabama's ratings.

        I refuse to play as Ohio State because they are rated so high and it makes it easy. I will still play against them, but I will know most likely Pryor will be running every single play.

            I will be playing with them online and I plan on kicking plenty of *** with them and I won't feel bad about it.

              I don't play online, but if i did I wouldn't be intimidated by playing Bama or cheesers, skill is all in the thumbs, not the team. Also because of Pryor, many cheesers will use OSU, so i know what you mean, I don't really play with OSU, or any of my favorite teams too often anyway, not sure why, I've just always been like that.

                Yea I don't play w/ OU either(online or vs. another person) most of the time I play w/ other teams. I only play w/ OU when I really want to just destroy someone. At least that's how it was in the past I don't know about w/ 2011 yet obviously.

                  Me personally I refuse to use top teams period. The only time I avoid them is if I keep running into them continuously. It just gets old, I don't have a problem really with people using Bama, they don't have a purely speed driven offense like the cheeser bandwagoners follow to my knowledge. I'll match them up with a Big10 team other than Ohio State. More than likely I'd play you with Wisconsin or Michigan, my top two used teams probably.

                  But, like I said I refuse to play as top teams in general. Even if my team, Michigan, is back to being on top I wouldn't ever touch them online. I like playing as the underdog, last year for Season Showdown they kept track of underdog points so I felt rewarded by continually playing/beating guys with lower level teams.

                  Bama vs Wisconsin right now is my answer for you but, mind you I don't have the game yet so I'm unsure

                    I've been torn about the decision. I know 100% I'll be doing an offline dynasty and RTG with them, but I'm not sure about online games or online dynasty. Perhaps when the better ratings come out and it makes us a bit more realistic I will. Until then I'll be playing with a few different teams. I'm in an Online Dynasty as Oregon State which has a 'Bama connection, and I always pull for them in the PAC 10, so that'll do for now

                      Yep, you are correct. Or at least as far as the real life 'Bama team. The guys can get down the field if they get going, but it's a more pound it style offense instead of the super speed.

                        Im far from a cheeser, always have played Sim so people wont have to worry about that. I understand the whole "i shouldnt suffer cause EA overrated my favorite team" thing. so i will prolly run with them most of the time, but ill have a back up, i always do. Last year we did a Pac 10 dynasty and i took Arizona State and went 10-1 before it fell apart. Also ill be on the PS3 this year so if anyone wants to add me my PSN ID is SydeEffect.

                          I'm in an 11 person dynasty and the commish is going to be Bama... I'm playing w/ SMU... problem is, the commish is really good. As in, he could be the KU Jayhawks and still win most of his games!

                            One more thing, being a Bama fan and being able to even ask such a question feels REALLY GOOD ROLL TIDE ROLL.

                              Alabama is a tad over-rated in this game. Why they have A+s across the board baffles me. Either way, I will rot in the depths of hades, before I play as Alabama.
