CPU Using No Huddle Offense Too Much

[ProximMaximus]

I've only played two games, but in both of them the CPU (Texas A&M and Auburn) used the no huddle offense more than 70% of the time. I find this very unrealistic, and it makes it damn near impossible to make your defensive play call in time. I understand the strategy of doing it in real life, but it seems a bit overused in the game.

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a way to reduce the amount of time the CPU uses the no huddle?

I agree with you on this 100%.

I was playing Rutgers vs Duke and both teams ran 80%-90% of their plays in no-huddle. I've been looking for teams that don't run no-huddles just to play the game.

This is another thing that need to be toned down or be able to shut off.

This is what college offenses do, they run no huddle so the defense can't make big assignment oriented changes. I don't get it people want realism then when they get it, it's too real for them. If you don't want them to run no huddle force an incomplete pass, it's not hard it's strategy.

awesome how they replicate that.

it's funny because i've only played NE vs NE games, and 1 NE vs IA game. i haven't seen the no huddle ran once. in fact i kind of forgot about it.

ea's implementation of this is sweet!

yea, this is kind of how the no huddle is run in real life.

Re: CPU Using No Huddle Offense Too Much

My complaint with it is that every team runs it like Mizzou. The only difference between no huddle teams is some look to the sideline after every play while other don't. EA needs to fix the issue of where the CPU snaps the ball as soon as they get lined up. The problem has been in the game for a long while now and hurts both the no huddle and all other styles of offense. Everybody should take at least 5 seconds at the line before snapping the ball unless its a team like Mizzou.

TAMU ran the second highest number of offensive plays in cfb in 2009 (1053 snaps in 13 games), while AU was tied for 21st (914 in 13 games).

Sounds realistic to me. If you saw OU with Bradford, i dont think Bradford even knew what a huddle was.

So far for me I have noticed that if you stop them for little to no gain on a play then they will stop using the no-huddle offense. My experience though is limited as I've only played 3 games.

The issue that I have experienced is that the CPU often does not call a play at the line. It does not give you a lot of time to call an audible on defense.

Well that's sort of the point of the no huddle. I personally have zero issues getting a play (Audible) called on D.

One of the pluses of No huddle is making the D react and make decisions quicker than normal to try and get a mistake or mismatch.

Watch Auburn or TAMU play and tell him if EA is being "unrealistic" or not.

Both teams are fast break, no-huddle offenses. They should be like this in the game.

Re: CPU Using No Huddle Offense Too Much

Played against Virginia, WKU, and UK and no issues....played against Clemson and they used a lot of No Huddle


I also played against Ark and Neb, but I cant remember what they did

Re: CPU Using No Huddle Offense Too Much

I, too, was getting annoyed by the no-huddle. I don't watch a lot of CFB so I had no idea this many teams used it. I thought the game was just overdosing on it. But, I found this article on the easports site..

The No Huddle offense can be utilized in a variety of offenses but most commonly is seen with teams using the Spread Offense. Here is a list of teams that use the No Huddle Offense as well as if they are Aggressive Tempo teams or not in NCAA Football 11:
