    My Husker Ratings Edits

    Not sure if you other Husker fans are with me, but there are some MESSED UP ratings for Nebraska. I'm going to layout my edits and reasoning for the Huskers, and see if you all agree or disagree. I'll start only with QB's and DB's, and K, since they are the worst offenders.

    Quarterbacks

    Code:
    Zac Lee
    
    Was:
    
    OVR  SPD  AGI  ACC  AWR  THP  THA
     88   80   84   93   80   88   85
    
    
    Now:
    
    OVR  SPD  AGI  ACC  AWR  THP  THA
     82   74   76   85   78   85   82
    
    
    
    Cody Green
    
    Was: 
    
    OVR  SPD  AGI  ACC  AWR  THP  THA
     87   81   88   90   73   92   84
    
    
    Now:
    
    OVR  SPD  AGI  ACC  AWR  THP  THA
     80   78   82   87   63   90   80
    
    
    
    Taylor Martinez
    
    Was: 
    
    OVR  SPD  AGI  ACC  AWR  THP  THA
     84   83   82   96   68   84   88
    
    
    Now:
    
    OVR  SPD  AGI  ACC  AWR  THP  THA
     75   86   88   90   60   85   78
    Explanation:

    I don't know where on earth EA came up with these acceleration ratings, but they are crazy. On the whole, our QB's are rated way too highly for what they've shown on the field. I adjusted awarenesses down, and kept them in with how old they are, and how long they've been in the offense. Made Taylor Martinez a little faster, but reduced his passing quite a bit, as he's more of a highly talented project as a passer. Lee has more field awareness than Green, but Green has a better arm and is faster. Lee is still the better QB overall.


    Defensive Backs

    My thoughts here are simple. This is one of, if not THE best, defensive backfields in the country, and they simply aren't rated that way. Compare them to a Bama or Texas, and you'll see why they mostly needed upped in the ratings. Prince got a big jump, as he is easily a first rounder, and probably top 20 pick. Dennard got bumped up a little. I made Gomes a more "big-hitter" type of DB. Pretty much everyone got awareness bumps up, do to the type of defense they are able to handle and execute in Pelini's defense. Thenarse got graded down a bit because of his injuries and coming back he likely isn't on par with the rest of the DB's.


    Kickers

    Code:
    Alex Henery
    
    Was:
    
    OVR  AWR  KPW  KAC
     91   70   94   89
    
    
    Now:
    
    OVR  AWR  KPW  KAC
     95   85   95   96
    
    
    
    Adi Kunalic
    
    Was:
    
    OVR  AWR  KPW  KAC
     87   74   95   80
    
    
    Now:
    
    OVR  AWR  KPW  KAC
     88   74   99   80
    Henery is the most accurate kicker in Husker history, and one of the most accurate in the country. Additionally, he's one of the most accurate punters in the country too. His rating was way too low. Kunalic is by far the most powerful kicker in the country, with 86 career touchbacks, more than anyone in the country.

    I'd agree with what you've done so far. i can't remember the LB ratings off the top of my head, but those might need to be lowered a bit.

      Yeah I would agree with you there.

      I haven't sifted through the ratings either, but it feels Helu needs more agility and Burkhead more strength

        Burkhead actually plays very realistic, to me. He just puts his head down and powers forward for me.

        I would agree on Helu. I think he needs more juke/spin ability, but i think his overall rating of 93 is about right, so I feel like I'd have to take away somewhere. Maybe the injury rating, but i don't know if that actually affects OVR.

          Re: My Husker Ratings Edits

          I actually made the same changes to my Nebraska's roster too. QB's are WAY too highly rated, so I dropped them to all 82, and I increased Henry's rating to a 96. I thought Burkhead was rated too high, but I don't know enough about him to change any of his ratings. Good reasoning on increasing the two CB's though, I will do the same to mine too. Overall, how did Nebraska's roster turn out? I know Colorado's is an absolute mess; the have a ton of players and wrong positions, and the four of the top six CB's, aren't even on the game.

          PS: I am bummed this is the last year to see Nebraska the day after Thanksgiving

              Ha I wouldn't think a CU fan would think burkhead is overrated after what he did to you guys last year.

                  ...and CU put up over 400+ yards of offense on that great Nebraska defense. Does that mean CU is under rated? Nope. Honestly though, I think he is a good RB, but I don't know about an 85 as a sophomore. Does 349 yards, and 4.3 ypc really generate a 85 overall? Helu is a beast though for sure.

                    Yeah I can upload it. My PSN name is clydebruckman. It'll be up by morning. I'm going to edit some of the positions too, and i'll put a list here of what I change. I've already changed a few names, and increased LaVonte David's rating while decreasing Will Compton, just as a teaser.

                    cparrish- I haven't checked out CU's ratings yet, but if Nebraska's is any indicator, I can imagine it would take some work too. My thing is, I just edited Nebraska so they made more sense in the universe of EA's messed up rating. The other option is to re-edit everyone in the game lower to what is more realistic, but thats a much bigger project. Burkhead is rated about right, IMO.

                      when helu is healthy he is a beast but he is rarely healthy and burkhead missed 5 games.

                        Rex Burkhead

                        I wanted to keep them with the same OVR ratings, but change the type of back they were. I bumped up Roy's speed and agility stuff a bit, and made Burkhead more of a power style back, like he is. The other RB's looked pretty good as-is to me. Braylon Heard may not qualify, so we may have to remove him altogether.


                        Wide Receivers

                        Code:
                        Niles Paul
                        
                        Was:
                        
                        OVR  SPD  STR  AGI  ACC  BTK  ELU  SPN  JUK  CTH  SCH  CIT  RTR  JMP

                        Now:
                        
                        OVR  SPD  STR  AGI  ACC  BTK  ELU  SPN  JUK  CTH  SCH  CIT  RTR  JMP

                        I wanted to make Paul a little faster, and reveal his power as a main component to his game. He's a big guy who can go up and get it, and is just a powerful overall player. I didn't really have a problem with any other WR, although I thought Khiry Cooper was a tad fast (94 SPD) so that's something to watch.


                        Offensive Line

                        A few changes had to be made from Buckeye's original roster. Marcel Jones was moved to RT. Mike Smith was moved from LT to C (he'll either end up at C or G this year, im guessing C). Jacob Hickman was changed into Jeremiah Sirles and moved to RT. Andrew Rodriguez was moved from RT to LT (this isn't a real life move yet, but I'm guessing thats where he'll end up). Mike Moudy was moved from LT to LG.

                        Andrew Rodriguez is a 5* prospect, and deserved an 80, based on what other top prospects on the Bama's and Texas' have been rated. I don't have any qualms with the rest of the O-line, Mike Smith gets a nice auto jump moving to C, and I think thats about right, he's gonna be a beast there this year.


                        Defensive Line

                        I'm pretty much happy with the factory DE and DT settings. Crick has the potential to maybe be a mid-90's guy, but I want to see him alone, without Suh, for a couple games before I change my own ratings on him. 92 seems fair based on his production last year, and pro potential for now. Baker might be a little high at 87 based on his production so far, but again, this is a 5* star recruit, and deserves some rating based on potential too.


                        Linebackers

                        A change first, I changed LOLB Joseph Camarata into Micah Kreikmeier.

                        Some of the most drastic changes I made were right here. First, Compton. He's a good player, but not as good as the Nate Irving's and Chike Amajoyi's that he was rated up with. He's still got room to grow as a Soph. LaVonte David was my biggest change, I felt he was way too low, coming in as a top juco who is game-ready and looking to probably start and make an impact in the fall. I'll probably start him in my dynasty over....Matt May. I like Matt May, but he was a tad overrated on here.



                        All in all, I think I've improved Nebraska's ratings, in relation to players ratings in the rest of the game.

                          I didn't do rating changes as much as this but I updated the roster to the best I could. It is on the latest CcAaRrSsOoNn3 360 file...

                            Good job on the edits. I always go through and re-edit the Huskers after the rosters come out.There are a couple of things that I would change thought. I laughed out loud when I saw that Lee was faster than C. Green with the default rosters, but Green is faster than a 78. I would keep his acceleration lower, but put his speed up around an 83. I would also keep his awareness a bit higher as well; he did start 2 games last year, and that experience will be valuable this year. I keep his trucking a bit higher as well too; he's a big QB, and isn't afraid of contact. In comparison, that might make me alter Martinez as well: he's more agile and quicker than Lee or Green.. but I think Martinez's biggest attribute is his acceleration, which I'd maybe put at a 92/93.

                            Excellent comment on Amukamara. He really got short-changed on the DR. I think Crick did as well; he's going to be a monster this year. I raised him up to a 95, mostly improving his pass-rushing skills. I didn't play around with David much yet, though. I'm going to wait and see what he's doing through Fall camp and the first few games before changing his ratings.

                            Did you add any other freshmen to the roster? I changed a couple players, put Quincy Enunwa and Kenny Bell in the WR corp, and created OL Nick Ash. It sucks that our roster is already at 69 players; there are a few more freshmen that need to be on the roster.

                            Overally, a great job with the alterations. I'm going to look through my roster and make some changes.

                              I actually made the same changes to my Nebraska's roster too. QB's are WAY too highly rated, so I dropped them to all 82, and I increased Henry's rating to a 96. I thought Burkhead was rated too high, but I don't know enough about him to change any of his ratings. Good reasoning on increasing the two CB's though, I will do the same to mine too. Overall, how did Nebraska's roster turn out? I know Colorado's is an absolute mess; the have a ton of players and wrong positions, and the four of the top six CB's, aren't even on the game.

                              PS: I am bummed this is the last year to see Nebraska the day after Thanksgiving

                              I'm going to miss the CU games as well. No matter how down either team was, they were always a war. But chin up, you guys had the same good sense to get off the Texas 12 ship at the same time we did.
