Plenty of offense on Heisman with stronger teams, but when 2 C or lower teams meet in my experience (about 20 games played) I have yet to score more than 20 points or have my opponent score 20. Why are people scared of offense? I would rather have a 38-35 game than 13-10 any day, am I alone in that way of thinking?
I have 2 games in the ladder alone where I was Idaho and scored 17 and 14 respectively. I played Florida International (45 points, ChampDizzle) and USF (37 points, MCX). I believe FIU and USF are both D ranked teams and they were able to score that many. However I did play with Nebraska once and scored only 14 points and held Georgia Tech (Outlaw) to 17 points. I think I see the problem here, I cant score more than 2 touchdowns.
you scored 23 on me last time we played, albiet I think 2 TD's still but you still got the victory. It just takes time and patience. Great game but my starting QB did get knocked out early!

very true, i'm sure it stymied your offensive game plan when he went out and that helped me. FG's seem pretty easy this year, but then again when was it hard?

Before they stupidly went to the analog way of kicking.
The tri-click meter was WAY better.

I'm sick of this bullshit "realism" argument because 56-49 happens more than 7-3

Not only that, I still don't get how high scoring games on AA is unrealistic, but grabbing 50 INTs in 1 season and guys throwing 5 TDs and 45 INTs on heisman is realistic, lol.

I am usually one of the league leaders in int's thrown, seriously. Most of them have been operator error as I sometimes make just stoopid decisions! I like heisman cause it makes it tougher in general but like some have said, in time with practice we will be having high scoring games. I rather play heisman but I will throw int's on Varisty level as well!

hmmm...doesn't look like it.
just quickly browsing top25 scores over the ENTIRE 2008 season I found only 1 game where 1 team scored at least 55 points and the other team was within 1 TD of them. Unfortunately it took OT to get to 55 points, Wk4 Fresno @ Toledo. Outside of that 1 game if one team is scoring around 55 points they are blowing out their opponent. 55-0, 55-21, etc. No 35pt rule for the 'realism' teams however.
On the other hand I can find 3 or 4 games every week were each team only scores 1 or 2 TDs.
but the best part is I don't remember anyone making a case that we should play on heisman so the games end up being 7-3. nice try though.

Okay... Who says games on Heisman will be 7-3? I imagine they'll be like 31-24 or 28-17.

Y'all are having that much trouble throwing the ball on Heisman? I think Heisman defense has definitely been toned down from last year's game.

Uhm...i might interject on this one. I have to be the worst. If I start a thread on how many people have beat me due to a FG i missed. I might rival the 184 pages on the 24 hour dynasty.

I missed a 19yd in my game against shift 2 nights ago. We should have a contest.
EDIT: He made me feel better about it. He drove the ball just to the other side of the field and smashed a 57yd FG. Fun times.

It could be just luck, but I think I tossed 30+ Ints with Boo Jackson last season. So far, in 5 Heisman scrims/ladders, I've tossed 5 total picks. It definitely has to be easier. Lord knows I'm not getting any better in my old age.
