That means I'm not getting WVU at #18 in the tournament, am I?

Sure you will, JBond! In fact, def...wait....hold on a second.........




Sorry about that, a pig just flew into my window.

[M.O.T.H.]

My last game...I gave up two 95+ passing TDs and a 98 yard TD run.

I thought by mid season, I would be showing signs of improvement...nope. All I can do is pass and kick FGs.

[BufFan71]

when i played yesterday all i could do was run and pass the to TE
i couldnt stop the pass, and i had a hard time passing the ball...

[Billingsley26]

when i played yesterday all i could do was run and pass the to TE

Ya I find it hard to pass deep or to a WR running down the field. I find that short passes work great as well as screens. Also I am very good at running the ball.

My secret right now are a couple of plays.

One, out of the "I" formation. You have 2 WR to one side and a TE to the other side, then run a toss to the side with the TE. If there corner moves in on top of the TE then your money.

The other on is out of Single back, with Two WR on one side, and Two TE on the other side. Again run a toss to the weak side, and if the corner comes in again, your money once more.

I also do find that stopping the pass is tougher. I usually use outta the Dime, Max Zone, usually stops anything short to medium range, but its pretty vulnerable to the deep ball.

[M.O.T.H.]

Blake Mitchell through 6 games....(Heisman difficulty)

Rating: 161.9
Comp: 124
Att: 186
Yards: 1813
TDs: 16
INTs: 14
%: 66%

I have so many ints...it's crazy.

[neko4]

I was doing good in campus legend, and went to start another campus legend and accidently saved over my old one, I also learned that playing D-Line is gonna hard

[M.O.T.H.]

I was doing good in campus legend, and went to start another campus legend and accidently saved over my old one, I also learned that playing D-Line is gonna hard

I think i'll start one soon...probably a QB.

[BufFan71]

yeah with Bernard Jackson i had like 17/25 186yds 2td/2int 1rushing td

looks like i have to get used to not being able to pass all over the defense....
seems like NCAA got generous with rating the players....

many players on CU i think had too high of an overall _--
Stephone Robinson (86)

[bhaarat316]

how hard is it playing as a CB, S i kind easy, same with LB, but CB seem kinda hard anyone try it in campus Legend

[HoopsDemon12]

i think they got stingy on some accounts... come ratings are too low for a lot of players

[rainbeaukid2]

TIP: on the goaline during defense, use a goaline play with 5 dlineman and both shift the lineman in and tell them to pinch in, then spread your LBs out, so far i have had no redzone TDs scored on me

[TACKLE]

I love playing with Florida's O. It's sick all the different things you can do. When I was Florida I played against LSU on All-American and beat them 70-10!!!

Tim Tebow - 17 carries, 234 yards, 6 TD

[BamaFalcon59]

Wow. I heard it was easy to run with the QB in this game, but wow.

[BufFan71]

234yds with tebow? wats his speed?
b/c i couldnt do that w/ Bernard Jackson

[LonghornsLegend]

what is tebow rated on here...as well as his speed?

also colt mccoy would be nice

[Vikes99ej]

This pisses me off so much. I hate when EAsports does crap like this. Let's put a FB in the game who's a 91! I kind find anything on him on the internet! It's like he never existed, for Christ's sake. They're so stupid.

vernon davis wasn't even in the game two years ago

for what team ?

[Boston]

I just spent about a minute waiting for the ball to drop from the sky on a screen pass. Every player was running around in circles on where the ball was supposed to drop. I had no idea what the hell was going on.

[Vikes99ej]

for what team ?

For Ole' Miss. They have a FB who is a 91 OVR, but he isn't listed on ESPN.com, or the Rebels web site.

[scottyboy]

i've been playing in some random games to get the feel of the team, and so far the only team Rice hasnt rushed for over 150 yards was VT. (on Heisman level).

I'm loving this game soo much

[djp]

God, recruiting is nuts. I'm still a beast at it though.

[BufFan71]

how is recruiting? is it as easy as last years?

[Smokey Joe]

got it today. Played half a game when I got it, and then played online. Won the 1st one, the 2nd I had to quit because my picture was all messed up (half the screen was cut off), and in my 3rd I got my ass handed to me against michigan (I could of won, but a fumble screwed me over).

[HoopsDemon12]

Why the hell did that graham kid for michigan manage a 99 rating?!?!?!

[BufFan71]

wtf no black visors???

[HoopsDemon12]

wtf no black visors???

i can only get black visors......

[Go_Eagles77]

Why the hell did that graham kid for michigan manage a 99 rating?!?!?!

Didn't he used to be a LB? In these games whenever someone moves from LB to DE they always get a huge boost in ratings, so they probably originally had him as an LB and then had to change him to DE but didn't have time to edit the attributes. I could be wrong though.

that could be it... but man i wish they did change it... cause i really dont enough about him to change his stats to anythign realistic... it just bugs me because he def doesnt belong to that rating

['cuse-213]

wtf no black visors???

for what system?

[BufFan71]

ps2........

[Go_Eagles77]

In 360, there is only no visor or dark visor, which is really dumb. That's weird that PS2 doesn't have 'em.

[BufFan71]

this is gonna sound like an oxymoran....but has anyone else had trouble stopping FSU's offense?

[Tubby]

Could somebody post the key players for Washington, as well as Jake Locker's overall rating?

[M.O.T.H.]

I just lost my connection in 6 straight games...any idea why? The game didnt even start. Maybe, the EA servers are having problems....

[smittyjs]

FK roster should be up in a few hours....

[PACKmanN]

the ps3 version has the black visors only and how do they make the rosters so fast?

[ripdw27]

can someone post some links to ncaa vids/trailers

[smittyjs]

the ps3 version has the black visors only and how do they make the rosters so fast?He saids he does three teams an hour, and he got the game early, also thats all he is doing, haven't played any games yet and people help him with incoming players and jersey changes and so on.

[BufFan71]

i cant believe i spent 50+ on a game that is exactly like 07.....

im kinda disapointed with 08....

(on ps2)

[Windy]

is it worth it to have them buy a memory card and put the rosters on or buying the transfer kit etc? i'm not sure how often i'd use the transfer kit.

[PACKmanN]

http://www.ncaastrategies.com/index.php?page=rosters you can get it for free on this site for the ps3 and ps2 :)

[BigJohn98]

I have a question. I need to know if I'm doing recruiting right or not. Ok, so I am constantly keeping in touch with the players I'm pursuing hard. When I call them, I hard pitch what they are really into, and what my school is good in. Is this keeping them interested? And if I ask them too much, and they hang up, are they losing interest in me? This is for 360, btw.

[BufFan71]

ps2's recruiting is the same as b4.......so dumb

[bhaarat316]

So people do rosters like naming everyone, so how do i get this for my 360, will it cost me

[Vikes99ej]

Is anyone on here an Ole Miss fan?

[YAYareaRB]

ps2's recruiting is the same as b4.......so dumb

No changes whatsoever?

[SuperKevin]

i love virginia tech

[BufFan71]

No changes whatsoever?

well, instead of giving players "points" they changed it to "Hours"

and when u pick how many hours, and wat pitch it briefly says wat it does:

ex:
(Coaching Style- 25Hours- A coach and the athletic director goes to the recruit's home with a playbook"

[M.O.T.H.]

I finally got to play online...my friend and I played a quarter each...we went 2-2...the two losses coming from in game disconnections...I have a DNF% of about 80%.

[KCJ58]

is it just me or when you do Campus Ledgend as a QB the best school to be a starter at is Arkansas or does any1 else get a better school (Rank Wise)

[M.O.T.H.]

I cant stand to lose...especially if those losses are by disconnection....so very lame.

EA Servers are down right now.

[SuperKevin]

online is so choppy

[M.O.T.H.]

online is so choppy

It was running smooth for me, real nice but, the guys I were playing said it was kind of laggy for them. I'm hoping my connection isnt that bad...I really don't know.

[KCJ58]

online is so choppy

yea it disconnected me twice during the kickoff

[Vikes99ej]

Can someone please tell me who FB #26 on Ole Miss is? He is a 91 OVR.

[Scott Wright]

Can someone please tell me who FB #26 on Ole Miss is? He is a 91 OVR.

Could it be BenJarvus Green-Ellis? I think he is #6 though...

[Vikes99ej]

Could it be BenJarvus Green-Ellis? I think he is #6 though...

No. This fullback is from Mississippi. He is not listed under anything that has to do with Mississippi football. I'm thinking he was either dismissed or transfered.

[M.O.T.H.]

Can someone please tell me who FB #26 on Ole Miss is? He is a 91 OVR.

I dont think that is a real player...there a bunch of fake guys in this game. Jason Cook, my boy Jared's brother, is their starter...#44. Yeah, I dont think he's real.

[princefielder28]

Could it be BenJarvus Green-Ellis? I think he is #6 though...

Probably.....5'11, 225 pounds and ran for 999 yards last year

[Canadian_kid16]

Can someone please tell me who FB #26 on Ole Miss is? He is a 91 OVR.

Damn, I was just playing the game...pick up Phil Steele's mag (or just look through it at a store...) until oyu find him, I know he's real

[Vikes99ej]

I dont think that is a real player...there a bunch of fake guys in this game. Jason Cook, my boy Jared's brother, is their starter...#44. Yeah, I dont think he's real.

Thank you, then. I'll just adjust his rating.

[BigJohn98]

Anyone know?

[Vikes99ej]

Damn, I was just playing the game...pick up Phil Steele's mag (or just look through it at a store...) until oyu find him, I know he's real

Yeah, I'm using Steele's mag, and he isn't in it. What a stupid thing of EAsports to do. Make a player a 91 who doesn't exist.

[M.O.T.H.]

Just for future reference...LE #85 on South Carolina's D isnt real either...I just turned him into Eric Norwood and adjusted his ratings.

[Canadian_kid16]

Yeah, I'm using Steele's mag, and he isn't in it. What a stupid thing of EAsports to do. Make a player a 91 who doesn't exist.

IDK about you, but Steele's mag is actually quite bad for naming backups...It has made me really frusterated at times:mad:

BTW, I just played a game, and I beat my bro 52-20. McFadden is a beat, He got like 450 All Purpose yards (246 rushing, 35 receiving, 145 returning)

[Vikes99ej]

Just for future reference...LE #85 on South Carolina's D isnt real either...I just turned him into Eric Norwood and adjusted his ratings.

I'll remember that. I'm finishing up the SEC.

[M.O.T.H.]

I wanna know why Casper Brinkley sucks in this game...he's a 74...wtf? 4th on the depth chart...yup, that makes sense.

[Vikes99ej]

Oregon's roster always gives me trouble, too. Let's have three players on the roster with the same number and weight!

[Canadian_kid16]

anyone ever wonder where they get their ratings from??

[Vikes99ej]

anyone ever wonder where they get their ratings from??

A room full of deaf rottweilers?

[M.O.T.H.]

I dont know what freshman RB is supposed to be Brian Maddox on the Gamecocks. I adjusted the heights and weights so, i dont even know anymore what they originally were.

[BufFan71]

yeah the ratings for CU are ridiculous.......some are way too high, some are way too low

[M.O.T.H.]

O.J. Murdock...an 86...hmm. best WR on the team...too bad, he's not even on the team.

[smittyjs]

So people do rosters like naming everyone, so how do i get this for my 360, will it cost meThere not done yet, and yes it will to a certain point, you can A. buy a memory card from them with the roster on there,(Don't know pricing ckeck PSXsports or FKroster for information, there sites could be down becasue of all the traffic at this moment), or buy a Datel Kit ($14.99 new), and a memory card ($29.99 New) and download them yourselve, i bought the kit and plan downloading them and this year and you can also use these when you upload draft classes in Madden 08.

[smittyjs]

Probably.....5'11, 225 pounds and ran for 999 yards last yearOle miss changed is "Offical" stats to 1,000 yards LOL

[SuperKevin]

i am 1-0 online now with a win as oregon

[Vikes99ej]

I solved the Mississippi FB problem! I made him a kicker. He'll never see the field and he wont' get drafted.

[Canadian_kid16]

I solved the Mississippi FB problem! I made him a kicker. He'll never see the field and he wont' get drafted.


well I just found otu what I did, and that was put a freshman name on him...o well, he's a FB, not like he's gonna get drafted anyway

[PACKmanN]

I got another disconn, im so pissed I should be 7-1.

[ripdw27]

There not done yet, and yes it will to a certain point, you can A. buy a memory card from them with the roster on there,(Don't know pricing ckeck PSXsports or FKroster for information, there sites could be down becasue of all the traffic at this moment), or buy a Datel Kit ($14.99 new), and a memory card ($29.99 New) and download them yourselve, i bought the kit and plan downloading them and this year and you can also use these when you upload draft classes in Madden 08.

doesnt the xbox 360 come with memory card or somn like that

[ccB]

doesnt the xbox 360 come with memory card or somn like that

No it comes with a hard drive.

[Shane P. Hallam]

I'm on if anyone wants to play a game online. I know there are like 5 people on, and I just sneaked a win on S4L in a slightly less, but almost equally, horrible game when compared to mine and Charm's game.

Once the website is back online, I'll upload a video from it.

[smittyjs]

You still up for a game??

[Shane P. Hallam]

You still up for a game??

U-G-L-Y are the only four letters I can use to describe that game. Either of us could have ran away with it with all of the avoidable turnovers.

[raiderfan_89]

:]

[Hines]

slaton + white=beasts

i played today with my friend..just got home..and on the first play of the game i took it like 77 yards with pat white for a td

i won 41-38 in ot

[SuperKevin]

[smittyjs]

hmmmm........

[Shane P. Hallam]

I've uploaded new videos, see the sig for the link:

1. From my game with S4L, you can see Zach Bowman be a BEAST

2. I uploaded two from my game with smitty, one was my best play and the other was...well...you have to see it to believe it. IT'S A MUST WATCH!

[smittyjs]

Roster for the 360 are done, he still is going to make changes, this is just version one.
http://boards.ign.com/ncaa_football_ea/b6051/146387580/p1/?107

[Hines]

when i played my friend just now...each slaton and white had like almost 200 yards rushing and like 6 tds combined

then number 8 fs(dont know the name) had two picks and dropped two of them

[raiderfan_89]

What system do you have???360 ofcourse!
ahaha.

I love you for posting that. Time to go get them!

I know there isn't, but does anyone know how transfer rosters via Live somehow? Cause I'd love to give them to all of you once I download them, so people can stop typing in names :P

[Shane P. Hallam]

360 ofcourse!
ahaha.

Then yes, 08>>>>07

[smittyjs]

How do you upload video from EA site, do you have to be a member or something??

[raiderfan_89]

alright.
sounds like a plan.

[elway777]

I cant wait to play this game on my ps3 next week.

[Shane P. Hallam]

How do you upload video from EA site, do you have to be a member or something??

I'm not sure, while you are watching, there should be an option in the right hand corner to download the videos fromt he site.

If you meant how to upload videos TO the EA Site, then yes, you do. When you booted up the game, it gave your e-mail and a random password. If you agreed to that, you can upload them. Just go to highlights at the main menu, when you choose a video or picture, Hit A to upload.


And yeah Gb, isn't that screwed up? If you want to watch, you know, good play, click on the other videos at the bottom :P

[Hines]

bond who do you run with in ncaa..do u run with ohio or someone else

[Shane P. Hallam]

Well, the Ohio Bobcats would blow, so no.

I've been trying to get into Ohio State, I can't.

I had a lot of fun with Oklahoma State, I may stick to them for awhile. WVU obviously rocks, and Arkansas was interesting. I've been trying a bunch of different teams, so who knows!

i meant tosu at first hahaha

i played with west virginia and i gained almost 400-500 yards with the big two combined

they are beasts

ill try with someone else though

[Shane P. Hallam]

It depends what you want. You more interested in big skill positions with speed? Try OK State or Texas. More interested in defense? Try V-Tech or FSU.

[SuperKevin]

Nebraska is good. I just won 35-8. My RE had 2 sacks, 1 FF, and 2 INTs

[jbeans187]

I love you for posting that. Time to go get them!

No way to transfer them on live. The rosters have a lot of mistakes but he said he was going to release new ones in 3-5 days with updated depth charts and created players. This one is just default rosters with names but its better than nothing

[BrownsTown]

Man I want this so bad! I played it over a friends house and my fears that it would just be 2007 with roster updates proved groundless.

[Shane P. Hallam]

Gotcha. My friend forgot to give me the CD that comes with the transfer kit, so I'll have to grab it tomorrow night.

[Vikes99ej]

I've done 10 teams through 2 days. Not bad.

[Green Bay Scat]

im sorry, but i was so sad by this years 360 ncaa 08. The game pace is WAY to slow, there is no touch passing in the game, the hot route is messed up(i dont know what to do) the new plays were your guy goes in motion is horrible(easy jump snap) but only if it was possible to jump snap, which is horrible, u cant user catch many passes anymore and the DB know how to pic off balls really easy, i hate this game lol.....but i love it.

[jag]

Can someone tell me how to get the transfer kit? (link, download w/e...)

[M.O.T.H.]

I have an 83% DNF percentage...this sucks...I cant even get into a game.

[HoopsDemon12]

I've done 10 teams through 2 days. Not bad.

man.. i told myself i would do 5 teams everyday on last years version... ended up pulling an all nighter and naming the whole game haha

[cardsalltheway]

Anybody with PS3 wanna play some online?

[HoopsDemon12]

Anybody with PS3 wanna play some online?

Give me a month and then im all game bro

I disagree with a lot of that. I think the hot route is much improved and now is a lot easier. The jump snap was too good in the last game, this has balanced it out. It helps, but you need to do it at the exact right time. I've always been bad at user catches, so maybe you're right there, but the "slower pace" is just a smoother pace that is the outcome of it being a lot better than 07 :P

How smoothly does College Hoops work for you? I tried to play yesterday and it was sooooooooo slow.

[YAYareaRB]

Is this game worth getting for PS2?

[HoopsDemon12]

Is this game worth getting for PS2?

well do you plan on getting a 360 or PS3 anytime soon?

[BufFan71]

Is this game worth getting for PS2?

not really.....

[Shane P. Hallam]

How smoothly does College Hoops work for you? I tried to play yesterday and it was sooooooooo slow.

It's pretty awesome. I really really love it, and I've played online with Charm and others.

[M.O.T.H.]

It's pretty awesome. I really really love it, and I've played online with Charm and others.

I think my connection isnt good enough for it...I dont even know about NCAA I can barely get in games....I keep losing the connection before the game starts. it sucks...I have a DNF% of 84% now. I dont know what's wrong, the few games i got to play it played like a normal game...almost zero lag...

[Shane P. Hallam]

Interesting. Yeah, connection problems can slow down College Hoops, stinks that you have trouble keeping a game. If you want to try some online games to get your DNF down, let me know.

[M.O.T.H.]

im just use to faster pace games, i dont care that its slow, its still fun, but my friends hate it. They got rid of the touch sensitive buttons, like hold y for a bullet or tap y for a lob, thats gone. the old way of doing hot routes of selecting ur WR then pushing Y, then moving the sticks or D-pad doesnt work for me, i must be doing it wrong. I love the game cause Vandy is good, its just im still knew to it, and starting right on heisman probably isnt smart lol

Right,t he hot routes are the old way, from NCAA 06, and before

You hit Y
You hit the button of your WR (X,Y,A,B,RB, etc)
Then you can hit either the right or left stick where you want it to change the route.

[Shane P. Hallam]

Ugh, I'm having major issues getting these rosters. PSx's stuff doesn't fit on a memoy card for some reason, and fkrosters SHOULD work, but for some reason when I transfer it onto my memory card, it doesn't show up on the 360. Very strange. I need to keep searching.

You cant lob or bullet passes? Whats it throw, a bullet everytime?

[BigJohn98]

Well, I've already got eight commitments during the season. Six of which are 5* players. All of the 5* players are real life players too.=)

What do you guys play your Campus Legends as? I play as a RB. Just the most fun for me since it's highly active.

[M.O.T.H.]

I do so many times per game...i keep pressing y to stiff arm.

I just named every single QB...that's not all. Changed apearances, home cities, #'s, made some missing players, and did the transfers....haha, took forever. RBs tomorrow...not looking forward to it.

are they all actuall players? or just 5 stars? even if it is 5 stars that is pretty cool

and anyone else having the problem in campus legend... ive named and saved my rosters.. yet when i make one of them... they all either become random names... or just the jersey numberss.... its pissing me off

I had trouble to, but this help me alot, also redoanload the rosters from this link.
http://boards.ign.com/ncaa_football_ea/b6051/146404032/p1/?5


Here is how to transfer the rosters onto your hard drive.

#1) In the Xbox 360 main menu sign out of your profile and sign into the PSXsportscom profile that should be on your memory card.

#2) Load the game (NCAA 2008)

#3) In the main menu of the game, go to MY NCAA 2008, then TEAM MANAGEMENT and then VIEW/EDIT ROSTERS.

#4) Exit out by pressing the B button. It will ask you to save the rosters. Select to save them and then save them to your hard drive instead of your memory card.

That's it.

DT

[HoopsDemon12]

Will you be able to do that with a PS3 aswell?

[Shane P. Hallam]

Yeah, the problem is that the profile doesn't even come up. Hmmm

[BufFan71]

as much as i like NCAA games......

NCAA 07 > NCAA 08

(on the ps2)

[Billingsley26]

as much as i like NCAA games......

NCAA 07 > NCAA 08

(on the ps2)

Ya I agree. Visually the next gen games look much much better, but overall i think the ps2 version is MUCH BETTER. I played the 360 version, and there was a lot lacking. Some cool features, but overall im alot more impressed overal from the ps2 version then the 360 version.

[BufFan71]

on the ps2...nothing has changed.....recruiting is like 98% the same

graphics are nearly identical

worste thing is..... the defenders no longer take angles to the ball carrier, so once u get loose, its Gonna be a TD

[M.O.T.H.]

Okay i guess i missed a few QB's...i dont know who these guys are and could use some help. Anyone know who the following QB's are?

On Army: Freshman QB #1, Freshman QB #9, and Freshman QB #12

On Hawaii: Freshman QB #10

On Houston: Freshman QB #13

On Idaho: Freshman QB #17

On UCF: Junior (RS) QB #13, Freshman QB #1, Freshman QB #2

Created a legend, RB from DC (State champ game was at Navy), went to Louisiana Tech, rushed for 1300 yards, 16tds, and led LA Tech to 12-1 record. Only lose to Hawaii, but he got hurt that game like 3 times. Im not starting my dynasty until one of my coaches lends some memory card that i can stick into my ps3 to get the rosters, but i cant find out where on the PS3 it goes

[Billingsley26]

Can anyone help me out with recruitng. DAMN! This past season I had only 4, FOUR recruits, and TWO of them came from in-season. I had such a bad thing. The reason I think is that, usually I try to pick up guys who are "interested" because that is the easiest, however this time, I saw a bunch of 5 star guys whose bar had some green in it, and so they suckered me into it. I ended up with 2 guys at the end of the season to make it a grand total of 4. Can anyone help me with some tips?

[TCU]

anyone else having this problem?

im playing legend mode as a QB, and after every play it brings up the Pontiac Drive Summary, after every play. I know its only supposed to do that after a score but not after every play.

[PACKmanN]

yo I'm 8-3 on NCAA i want a challenge. I would be 10-1 if i didn't get disconnected.

[Vikes99ej]

It seems like All-American is more challenging on 08 than it was on 07.

[M.O.T.H.]

It seems like All-American is more challenging on 08 than it was on 07.

Heisman is def. harder but, I got it down by now.

[Vikes99ej]

I'm thinking about going up to Heisman, but I'll adjust the AI like I did for 07.

[M.O.T.H.]

Thing about Heisman...Way too many fumbles...it's really bad. and............their RB's break about 30 tackles per game.

[Hines]

hows the campus legend..and the recruiting

[Vikes99ej]

Yeah, I fumbled twice on AA.

[adschofield]

anyone else having this problem?

Yeah, I fumbled twice on AA.

I fumbled 4-5 times per game through 6 games...yeah, it's crazy.

[ccB]

Do you get 10 hours of recruiting every week or the whole season?

[JETS5128]

For anyone naming their rosters, what did you do for the michigan WR's? They are a mess, also, who is michigans starting fullback?

[Windy]

IGN has reviews up. 8.3 for 360 and 7.8 for PS3. Overall a lot better than last year.

[Sniper]

For anyone naming their rosters, what did you do for the michigan WR's? They are a mess, also, who is michigans starting fullback?

What do you want to know about the WR? Mario Manningham is #86, Adrian Arrington is #16, Greg Mathews is #13, Antonio Bass is #18, LaTerryal Savoy is #82, and I'm not sure about the freshmen. I don't know who's listed as Michigan's starting FB but IMO it should be Vince Helmuth.

[BuckNaked]

Yeah, each week

[Jughead10]

Does anyone find this game easier than last years? I've always been a more of a Madden guy and spent more time playing that, so I always play on the All-Madden difficulty. In past NCAAs I could never play on Heisman and always played on All-American (I think that is the one lower). Well this year I've been dominating the toughest teams on All-American. Just wanted to see if anyone else feels the same way.

[BufFan71]

i started playing heisman b.c i was dominating all american.....
and im dominating heisman.....

I do all American, and I ususally get semi close games. Like 21-10 or something like that. But in Heisman, I can't get my running game working most of the time, so I'm kinda stuck in the level between AllAmerican and Heisman right now.

I finally got the rosters loaded up. A bit dumb what you have to do, but whatever.

Anyways, your mystery Ole Miss FB #44 is Jason Cook.

[saintsfan912]

Anybody else notice how unbelievable the coverage is in the passing game. They seem to knock down EVERY pass I throw unless they guy has 10 yards of seperation. No matter who I play, even Kentucky or something. Its kinda aggravating.

So after doing rosters for basically three entire days I finally get on the field and Clausen throws for three td's in the first quarter, then promptly seperates his shoulder and is out for two months. Demetrius is ripping it up atleast. Also Armando Allen brought back the opening kickoff for a touchdown, not a bad way to start your career.

Who is this defensive end for Michigan that is a 99 as a sophomore?

Brandon Graham, get this his stats for last year were 3 tackles and 1 sack. He was a LB, so when u move a LB to DE they are usually rated high, but EA didnt fix it. He was a 5 star recruit and played behind Woodley, i moved him down to an 88, but that is still generous, but he does have a lot of potential.

I was also wondering about that S they have is a 90 something, i think Jamar...something, i never heard of him

[Shane P. Hallam]

Jamar Adams? He is pretty darn good.

ESPN.com is very good for looking up freshman. Just go under recruiting for the team, and go to the 2007 class. Match the location that they're from, and you should be good, unless you have 3 CBs who are all 5'10 185 and from Ohio.

[Shane P. Hallam]

Also, Corso is a ******.
