Re: Deep ball too easy, I know why.

Here's another reason why I doubt EA is going to do anything about it. The game is a compression of a real game that goes on for 60 minutes. The is the first version where I hear Nessler talking about 15 minute quarters. Not many play 15 minute quarters. By making it easier to score, you get more realistic scores and stats. Many football games, real ones, are played longer than an entire NCAA game (20 minutes for most NCAA games) without a score or only 1 or two scores. An NCAA game usually for most is slightly longer than a quarter in a real game. You don't want to see the entire scoreboard for your NCAA game to be 1 and 2 score games. Just to get realistic passing and rushing stats for a 60 minute game, EA made it easier to do both so you can get similar stats with a 5 minute quarter game. The way the game it, if people did 15 minute quarters, games would be 200 points and they would have to do something to make it harder, more real.
