Five Toughest Programs for Dynasty Mode in NCAA Football 12

[bomccready]

Another nice read, with some great dynasty suggestions, MMCS...

I usually don't drop below the LA Tech / SMU / Wyoming level in my rebuild projects, but I'm sure at some point, I'll revisit this article and try on a mega stinker...



Confused about the luv for the Kibbie Dome tho...

I've read similar before, but when I played against Idaho there, it just seemed like a really under lit, tiny Superdome...

???

You basically nailed what I like about the Kibbie Dome. This game features a ton of giant round stadiums that are indistinguishable from one another. The Kibbie Dome, though, is unique, for better or for worse. It feels nothing like an FBS-caliber facility, and I think that's part of the charm!

The "WAC" conference sign doesn't even change in the kibble dome when you switch conferences with Idaho, that's what turns me off about them.

I personally dislike the Kibbie Dome. Way too small. I like larger stadiums, so when I become a powerhouse I can have a decent home turf advantage.

Last year I used SDSU (Qualcomm, 70k ish) and this year Western Michigan (32kish). I also built a D- overall TB team with the Generik 50k stadium.

I rebuilt Akron and won the national championship in year 4. I play heisman default sliders. I had to move the team to the big ten year 4 because I got the go daddy bowl every time in the MAC even though I went 11-1 each year.

Basically to compensate for talent I just recruited Corner backs with high speed, agililty, and acceleration and put them in as WR and RB.

I play a 5-2 pinch defense. Works great unless there is a screen pass or spread offense. Gotta make sure to have secondary play soft and get that inside LB to blitz the QB.

Currently in year 3 of my Buffalo Bulls OD. Now there's a depressing roster. But this season I managed a 10-2 record, made even more notable that one of the wins was a huge upset vs. Michigan! (Two losses were vs. NIU and Ole Miss) One of the keys to the team was a 3* QB I recruited in year 1. His name was Donnie Ferguson (the pic was even a redhead!) and he was a 6'3" 263 lbs. QB with decent speed and good throwing power. I gotta admit I only put him on my board because the stocky Irishman amused me. Well, when I see his stats, he's the sleeper of the draft. 81 OVR as a true freshman, he's become the lynchpin of the Buffalo offense right now. Hard to bring down, fast enough to snare a few yards and tough enough to run over corners. And while he's not the most accurate arm, there's plenty of power behind it. And I've got him for 3 more years!

If it's a true sim style dynasty where wins are hard to get, New Mexico in the new MWC has been insanely hard for me to get wins with (losses to AF, BSU, TCU, SDSU, Arkansas, Texas Tech, and Wyoming). 5-7

Year #2 was worse, with losses to Texas, Texas Tech, BSU, Nevada, Hawaii, Wyoming, Fresno State, and Air Force. (4-8)

Year #3 was better, with a few 2/3* recruits the year before, I managed to finish 6-6, missed going bowling though. Lost to TCU, BYU, Texas, BSU, Nevada, Fresno State.

I started a dynasty as OC at Idaho. Heisman mode went 8-4 in year one and won the Holiday Bowl over Air Force. Started picking up OC offers at schools like Arkansas but decided to stay another year at Idaho to build my coach loyalty. In year two, opened with an OT win over #13 ranked Boise to win the Battle for Idaho rivalry. Turned around and lost to unranked Bowling Green after my defense gave up 36 points and Blackmon threw 3 picks. Then played #8LSU in the swamp and clanked a field goal off the upright that would have forced OT as time expired. Yes, building a dynasty with Idaho is a challenge. Recruiting is HUGE.

I'm currently in year 4 with my Akron Zips Dynasty. I lead them to the Humanitarian Bowl my first year, and the BCS National Championship my Second and Third Year. I'm currently rank #16 at game 5 Vs. Cincinnatti. I moved to the Big East cause they needed teams. Always two ranked teams part of the Big East.

Ive used schools like UAB, Army, Ark St, WKU, and SDSU for my "rebuild" projects. Luckily, with UAB (my longest one, 7 full years), I came in as HC after a first season as Navy's DC. I came in during the off-season, though, so I was able to recruit the final five weeks. Somehow, (I have no clue how), I got a 5* WR who was 6'4" and a 4* TE who had great hands commit to me (both were new recruits after the season). With the two of them, I could just play pitch and catch with my accurate but weak QB. Made it sooooo much easier, and the WR ended up totaling around 120 TD catches career (93 overall when he graduated). I will never forget Jared Wesley!

Being from the Pacific Northwest I have ran a dynasty with both Idaho and Wazzu (Coach mode for the latter) and I will agree 100% with the author that it is tough but rewarding experience.
