Not to bust into JoshC1977's thread, but my second set WILL HAVE a longer play clock and yes, there is a STATISTICAL and OBSERVABLE improvement to play calling by the CPU AI with a longer play clock.
At present, V.2 is up to 12 min quarters and am seeing 130+ plays on average... Considering going EVEN higher than 12 min quarters due to the improved CPU game play that I am seeing and the fact that at 12 min quarters (with accel clock) that I am staying under 160 total plays for game.
Wiz...out.
