I tried a new strategy this year: Play COD, forget about the draft, and let BigMike assign the "best available team".

So far so good. I haven't even looked at their roster yet. But it could be worse -- I could be back at Eastern Michigan.

nah I dont really eat pot...not worth it..

but now we're just hijacking a valuable thread.

I love Iowa State. under the radar. 86 speed QB with accuracy, 90 speed HB with strength and 2 90+ wr's on the edges as well as a bend but dont break defense with 2 impacy safeties (who should do wonders for me hopefully). PLus I got members of the alma mater (dr.tom ;)) giving me the a-ok so it's gonna be a good year in ISU county.

It might that I stink at 09, but those impact safties let me down quite a bit. The offense I loved. You should do great with them. But I think the 86 speed quarterback only had 50 acceleration. It took him a while to get moving.

Idaho has a lot of talent on Offense, but no defense, but still two 93+ speed receivers and a halfback with 93 speed. You can get a lot of things down with them.


For me, I like Indiana. I should do great in the Sun Belt Conference. Oh shoot wait, I have to play in the Big Ten. I might be able to squeek out a win or two since I can't play defense worth a crap in 09.

I'm quickly realizing that switching from Navy to Rutgers might mean I have to change my LD name to passdarock :?

Utah St Overview

good things, good RB, WR's, TE, LB

Bad things, no DEF/OFF line, secondary is average, couldn't play as much man as I would like. With the QB situation I had better luck with the 2nd string QB than I did with the starter.

The team will teach you to be patient and you will definately get an idea on how good of a coach you are. They are a great team if you are playing with the lead, but if your are down or need to score fast, well be prepared to get frustrated.

No it isn't that bad, but he seem to take forever to get moving. One thing I noticed though is the 2nd and 4th string HB's were better runners than the starter (they all had 90 speed, but 2nd and 4th had just a little bit better acceleration. Help them get to the hole quicker)

With 3rd to last pick Eastern Michigan is a steal. I mean, all rb's speeds are 87 and lower, wr's at 87 and lower. I can't figure out how im scoring, I know why im being scored on, my opponents water boys are faster than my rb's. :lol:

I actually got caught up at a situation at my school and couldnt even get to a computer....so I got hooked up with the Bulldogs of Fresno State.

They ok....got a fast back up qb. 86 speed. But I dont know how to run the option, so thats out of the question.

The impact TE is slow as fuck.
Rb sucks.
Defense sucks...

...But I dig em... :)

FUCK YEAH!

Miami, Oh is a decent team. Need to find a good playbook, but not a bad pick IMO.
