Road to Glory is the same dumb ass mode from NCAA '14. Same 4 plays and most of them I am a blocker or WR as the HB2 with an elusive HB skillset.

Nothing in almost 48 hours of owning this game jumps out at me as any different than the last game for Xbox 360. Excited it is back, but so far the game is the same as it ever has been gameplay wise.

Dynasty is next.

This game is freaking hard.

Just turned off the game twice vs Sparty due to impending losses. I don’t even remember doing that in the last game.

Few things I’ve noticed finally playing a decent team on the road.

1. Road games are no joke- I had trouble settling the QB down. I couldn’t audible because the play would be wrong, if I did settle the QB down it only took 1-2 bad plays for it to come back, and to me it seemed like a real game in that once it went downhill it went downhill pretty hard. Example is I went for it down 7 in the 4th and didn’t get it. 1 play later I’m down 14.

2. Conditions really impact the game too. It was windy and very rainy when I played and it affected the game. Missed two extra points because of the wind and I had probably 10 dropped passes. The craziest thing though was I had a WR slip and fall during a route. I’ve never had that happen before and I got sacked because of it. Went from being a nice 15+ yard play (had the guy beat on a post) to a 10 yard loss after my guy slipped.

3. The OL protection vs the AI is a complete joke. I was getting sacked 3+ times per game vs Akron/UWM/Marshall and it was much the same vs Sparty.

4. My DL pressure with all these bad asses on the DL is a joke too. Unless I’m controlling they aren’t getting home.

Overall, I guess this will make it more challenging but damn I think they over compensated.
