2009 Bowl Championship Series

macc went for it on 4th down in the second quarter and when i tried to go for it it was too far for a field goal and too short for a punt and then when i punted the ball it went sailing through the endzone even with me putting half power on it and kicking it as high as ii could,

LMAO. I'm the idiot you're the one still here posting crying. Should've known not to let a 12 year old in.

Don't post here anymore Brady, you're gone. I'd hate to ban your IP and your brother Chad not have internet access where you guys are together right now until he gets back home. You're brothers just fine - you go on and keep glitchin' elsewhere buddy.

There is a difference between picthing the ball when you are going down and when you are being hit. I pitched the ball as i was getting hit. He didnt have me going to the ground

Well it can't because baby macc has kicked me out

It'll be just fine. I'll make sure when recruiting that I know people are sim style before just bringing them in. If it means playing a practice game or having their user games early so that we know they're sim - can't believe it took this long to figure it out. I wouldn't rat my brother out either, tho.

What are you still doing here? One more post your IPs getting banned and you'll have to worry about your brother back handing you to shit about not being able to access the forums until he gets back to where ever he lives.

I watched the game from start to finish

That's great then you obviously don't realize when someone isn't sim either. Let's just drop it and move on. I should've been much more clear with you when you recruited your brother in. He's the exact type of player that ruins this game online and makes me not even want to play user games.

Wow, so this game result is going to turn into a flame fest?

Get over it boys...and lets move on

A few things I have read..and my 2 cents:

The Triple option attack is really tough to stop on this game, am I saying this is a glitchy playbook..NO...but its tough to defend.

Run Commit is gay, and I like that we don't use it in this dynasty.

User Jump Snap is NOT run commit...its setting your defensive line strategy to aggressive.

As far as the QB pitching the ball under some crazy circumstances, yea that tough, but its not necessarily a glitch, its just EA being dumb. And because pitt uses the Trip Option playbook, alot of his plays will have this going on, so saying its not SIM style is somewhat right. But on the other hand, if that is his offense, and we all knew he ran this type cuz he said so previously....we should have known he was gonna go with it in user games too.

On another note, there is a HUGE difference in playing USER games than playing CPU games. I have played alot online...and the gameplayis different. WE all have to get used to this.

Well, I know it's tough when you have top competitors going at, things get heated...Everyone idea of SIM is going to be different...IMHO after playing MACC I consider him SIM style, and I will guess you would say your Bro is SIM...either way this is MACC OD, so if in his opinion he felt it was not SIM style that is his decision and we all have to live with it and move on or leave the OD?....By the way GT, we had talked about playing at 4EST tonight, can I move that back about an hour, I still need to some shopping for Christmas?....I'm a horriable father/husband who waits to the last min. for this stuff...

Exactly everyone will interpret sim and not sim differently. There are some things that everyone agrees on and some where there is a blur. I would say there are some aspects of my bros game that are not sim but overall he is a sim player. I would say macc is a sim player as well but i think he got a little heated in the game and did some different thing that weren't sim but i say he is a sim player. So it does come down to interpretation.

Lol ya thats cool so you just wanna play at 5 est right?

I agree with you 100% here buc.

The thing with the triple option is it is very hard to stop and you will mostly get the same plays or only slight variations of those plays over and over but out of different formations. I think most people get frustrated with it because it is so repetitive and you think you should be able to stop it but it just keeps working.

I also think run commit is gay which is why I personally never run it. I don't mind if people do it occasionally, but when people run it every play there is a problem with that I have found ways around it but still don't like it. I haven't played a person who uses yet in this od.

With the qb pitch there is a very fine line between what is realistic and what isn't. The goal is for the qb to hold it as long as he can and pitch at the last possible second, this is normally where big plays come in. Often times I will try to hold it until right before i get hit or pitch it simultaneous with the hit. I don't try to ever pitch it as im being tackled, that seems to cause a lot of fumbles anyways, but again there is such a fine line between being hit and being taken to the ground.

Haha ok cool. Well then they are welcome lol

Just chiming in here. Obviously, I did not see the game. However, Lewis averaging 10 ypc for the season should've been a massive, and I do mean massive red flag. I don't care how good a player or team is, no one should be averaging close to double digit yards per carry. Its about about as far from realistic as possible. I'm not certain on this, but I believe Pitt has another player that is averaging in the teens in regards to ypc. He doesn't have many carries. But thats still effin ridiculous.

It wasn't a matter of his option attack beating me, I shut his option down the entire game. He maybe had 2-3 played through three quarters that we're successful and got first downs. It was his jumping the snap on certain plays that unrealistically forced tons of pressure in the backfield on any of the interceptions he had. I understand everyones got their own interpretations of sim and what isn't sim but I can assure you he exploited all the "cheap" aspects of this game.

I know 10 ypc seems high but its not. For a slot back in the option this is what you want look at Anthony Allen from Georgia Tech he has 9.8 ypc. He doesn't have as many carries but his average is almost the same

But that doesn't take into account Allen because I guess he didn't have enough carries but that is how the flexbone is the slot backs don't get the carries. So if anything Lewis had too many carries for a slotback but that's it.

thanks for the props...looks like i missed a brewhaha here...I did notice that some peoples stats seemed outlandish...but I gave them the benefit of the doubt...sorry to hear that we had a disagreement here

Nah we're good and moved on.

About the stats, I don't really care what numbers people put up. That I don't think is breaking the rules. The only thing I want to encourage here is fair play in USER games. As for CPU games, fuck run it up that doesn't bother me. I did myself a couple times.

To chime in about the realism aspect - I myself am guilty of having somebody who averages 10 yards per carry.

Dexter McCluster is at the helm of the Wildcat formation for me and the majority of the time against the computer it went for BIG gains. Usually I'd set it up a TON with the handoff to my other back on the reverse so that when I went to run the keeper with Dex it had the play allready flashing as Set Up.

He had a lot of BIG gains from this formation, is that considered cheesy?
