Nah, I know that fumble was legit. I don't know if you noticed, but I pulled my starting QB after my first series....he missed 3 open receivers on my first possession when I went 3 and out. My backup did a tad bit better, but you pretty much smothered the field pretty good. I just couldn't tackle you for shit. Good game though, you earned it.
Yeah I noticed. Luckily your substitution coincided with the pizza guy getting here. Convenient.

58-38... defense much?

Grats on the win...
Not in the fourth quarter. :) buchtel was playing super aggressive defense, trying to come back, and whiffed on a bunch of tackles, but his QB got hot, and I couldn't stop him in the 4th. 38-17 to start the 4th, 48-17 two minutes in and then I couldn't stop him anymore. Luckily he kept having to go for the onside, and I had a short field to work with. buchtel won the 4th 21-20 and beat my ass in yardage gained in that quarter.

Thanks for the congrats. Busy Saturday. Paint, cut, and install all of the new baseboard in my dining room. Sign-up on Facebook. Repair the dog's invisible fence. Win the National Championship. Drink heavily while watching the basketball buckeyes take it to those knob gobblers from Minnesota. *whew*

How much difference is there in recruiting rankings when you lose the NCG vs winning? For kicks and giggles the game has a 50/50 chance of picking the winner of IBI and buchtel anyways; so say the play their game and report the results to you and we acknowledge their results no matter what the game says. We could then do conference changes.

Just a thought. Am I missing more?

That could be the way. Cuz as long as we know who won I can 'fix' the results offline to match the real outcome (well not the final score/stats) Then I can keep simming the advance to get the desired conference invites we want.

But who knows if that would actually work or if it would blow up something. I would have to make sure we have backups. Plus since Fanatic is out of town starting Sunday we will have some time on our hands.

No thoughts on this? Well, just in case I will keep an offline save just in case.

I will try to advance us sometime this afternoon. Was at a poker tournament last night til 3am (so the woman isn't pleased at the moment since I told her I would be home at midnight)

So the plan is to advance to players leaving and at this time I will post who is leaving for who, with the intention to go offline to try to get the players to stay. When I post them I want to know how much time you want to use to keep him.

Example:

Army: G.I. Joe Transfering to Navy & GI Jane transfering to Air Force


Smooth: GI Joe - Max Time, GI Jane - 15 minutes


FYI - I have a family function around 4pm. So if it isn't advanced by then/ posted by then I won't be back til 7-8pm.

You know my thoughts. If it's possible to have Army join a conference, I'm all for it.

You might gain your wish.

When I advanced past the National Title game there was another week there. So it seems like it is possible for me to take it offline now for potential conference changes and still keep the original championship results.

I know Smooth wants to join a conference. But the other potential move is ECU to the SEC (maybe the ACC?). (I won't let anyone else join the Big XII)

So mjs, would you be willing to move to the SEC (maybe the ACC) to avoid me beating you every year in the CUSA Championship game :wink2:

And Fanatic... on the off chance you get invited to the PAC 10... what would you choose?

Oh yeah... for those that also play in Iron's dynasty. What are your thoughts on those sliders?

I think they're better now than they were at the beginning. However, one thing that gets me is the amount of pancake blocks the CPU's line seems to get on a regular basis. I just finished my game against Virginia Tech, and I can remember three solid instances where all four of my d-linemen got flipped in the air on a running play. I don't think I have any sacks through four games, but I might be mistaken.

And I still think USER RB should be bumped up a little, but I think I'm in the minority there.

Any major conference is cool with me.

My only problem with that dynasty is my lack of offensive playmakers. I like the sliders and would really like to play with my BYU team with these sliders.

Ya I'd be game to switch conferences, maybe I could recruit better then. Let me know which conference would want me, because I don't know if I'd be ready to play iron for the title every year with as slow of a team as I have.

In my offline dynasty, I jumped to the ACC in like year 3 or 4, can't remember which one. So I'll have to weigh my options, but let me know if either conferences want me.

yea thats my main problem with those sliders, ive got a few sacks using my DE though

I just pretty much stopped blitzing all together though because everytime I throw out a blitz the computer finds a pass that ends up being for 15+ usually

You know my vote. I like the sliders and, like fanatic mentioned, would love to see how they hold up with my Kentucky team.

You might gain your wish.

I thought that would work that way when I sent you that PM, but I wasn't 100% sure.

What's funny is when I simmed to the offseason last night, it invited BYU to the Big 12, ECU to the SEC, and USF to the freaking ACC. Even the video game knows that the Big East isn't a real football conference. :lol:

I like Iron's Sliders, Much more realistic. Actually makes people pay for repeating the same play (such as blitzing) EVERY down.

Plus, I think I am averaging about 4 sacks a game, which is pretty realistic.

I think this year things are pretty tough. But will get easier as the years advance. I also understand that I have a pretty good team and I might feel different in others shoes.

My running game is atrocious, but my RBs are garbage. I think for this dynasty, where we have some tailbacks that can fly, it will be pretty realistic.
