Why is MidTnSt playing in the Gator Bowl???

6-6. Finished 3rd in the Sun Belt. And they are in the Gator. Meanwhile, Cincy, the BE champ is sent to the Motor City Bowl. Two teams w/losing 5-7 records went to bowls.

Why can't EA get the simple stuff right?

I dont understand Midd Tenn St or Cincy unless the big east was really bad in your dynasty, bu 5-7 could get into a bowl if there arent enough 6-6 and higher teams to fill all the bolw slots chances of that happening in real life are slim to none but possible.

no way cinnci won the BE and went to the motor city, the BE champ has an auto-bid to the orange bowl vs the acc champ

I'm telling you, Cincy had only 3 losses & went to Detroit. MidTn was in J'ville. This is on Ps2.

Because that aspect of the game is broken and has been so for years.

On the PS3 version of 2010, I just saw an undefeated Tulsa team and a one loss Cincinnati team playing for the BCS championship ahead of a one loss USC, Florida and Oklahoma. Complete BS.

I love this game and play it all the time, but I see so many things that makes it appear as though the game designers don't know a damn thing about college football. Overall, it's a nice product but the list of seemingly simple things that need to be fixed in exhaustive.

I guess that's the benefit of destroying your competition's ability to make a college football game. Just think how much better this game would be if they actually had someone pushing them.

Last year in my dynasty, 10-2 (and #9) Notre Dame went to the Motor City bowl.

Just have to deal with it, I guess.

If this happened in the first year of the dynasty it would be crazy, however seeing an undeafeted mid-major in the national championship isn't that far away....could be this year with Boise St. if a few more top teams fall, there is no way Boise wouldn't be in...as for Cincy they are close this year also, top 15 right now also.

So if you get Tulsa having 3 or 4 good years, why couldn't they play in BCS national champ?
