Fanatic's running out the clock on what has to be the most frustrating game I've ever played,
I was up 14-3 with less that a minute to go in the half. The following takes place:
I have never seen 28 points scored so quickly before.

Fanatic's WR breaks two tackles on the way to a long TD to close the half.
Prior to this play I was getting PISSED, wide open dropped passes and overthrows, line playing matador with your DL. Then I throw a pass that shouldnt have been thrown, but Minniocchi catches and the dumbest thing about this play wasnt the broken tackle but the fumble as I dove on the goalline and recovered while never moving.

My QB fumbles the first carry of the second half and Fanatic returns it for a TD.
I got your "wtf" psn message, and I have actually seen the option pitch intercepted/fumbled quite a bit in this game. Your QB was in the clutches and you could see his arming moving. I actually switched from 3-4 contain to 3-2 Dime contain which put my DB's on the field and moved my stronger ones inside which helped immensely.

My KR fumbles the ensuing kick off, Fanatic scores.
Turnovers come in bunches in this game, especially vs human opponents, it changes the game way too much.

My stud CB made a VERY difficult INT that doesnt happen in last years game, over/through your WR.

On the next defensive play, my SS gets called for a facemask. Fanatic then scores.
I'm all for momentum building and mistakes happening, but this game got out of control in a matter of 2 minutes.

Not even close to being fun. I even had the ball carrying thing set to conservative to avoid fumbles. So now I'm here letting the CPU run my plays as we both just chew clock. My apologies to Fanatic for wasting his time, but this was just stupid.
The first half was very frustrating for me, but because my QB and line were playing bad. I hope this game was just an anomaly of crazy things happening and not an indication of future gameplay.
FWIW, BYU is not 38-14 better than Army. These are two pretty even teams.
