2012 Week 10 Discussion

Rebels land two more commitments in 5* TE Carl Gilmore and 4* OLB Ronnie Martin, adding to an allready thick linebacker and tight end class. Gilmore will come in behind Tez Bradley as the teams #2 TE next season with Epperson and Allen graduating and it will give the Rebels four years of experience from the very similar duo they've currently got. Ferbia Allen's been the big playmaker and EJ Epperson has been the very good blocking TE who will hurt you if you leave him uncovered. Ronnie Martin right now projects as a MLB with terrific play recognition, tackling ability and blocking shedding and is one of the more agile linebackers in the class. Full report after this weeks game hosting Florida.

User games are played on Heisman default settings. You cannot have sliders influence play in user games I'm certain of this. The 9 interceptions are probably due in LARGE part to you leaving your QB in I know they will just continue to pile up if he's "in the blue". You can check by holding R2 and down on the right analog but I'm sure you know this. The sliders don't have anything to do with user games and it's the same game it was before they'd been changed. Sorry you took a beaten, Scott me and Gang have had some classy games. His D is tough and always in your face I had trouble when he would pressure me as well. Going to play my Florida game now!

hey macc do you check the blue in the game or do you pause and go somewhere else "depth chart?" to see this? good info to have....curious to how your game with florida goes since the just beat my ass...i will play when i get off work.

Chris when you go to show yourself what play you picked. The only difference is instead of going UP on the RIGHT ANALOG to see your play - you press down and it shows icons underneath all your players. RED is for when a players heating up and on a roll, it will be flashing when a player has allready made a big impact especially recently. It will flash golden when they're heating up and blue when they're under acheiving.

great info, thanks! is there anyway to get a blue player back up to golden or red beside them making plays? If you sit them for a series does that help raise ther confidence?

question in regards to recruiting...does anyone know or have a thought on if it really matters if you beat another player to doing your pitch's that week?...for instance...I have a player that has me 2nd, and is ready to set a visit, and the team he has 1 does there pitch's before I have had time to call and set a visit...and team 1 secrues a Hard Commit that week? does this make any sense?

o ic he must have been blue then because he was sucking ass and there was also a questionable 4 &2 at the end of the fourth quarter near the middle of the field he was up by 6 i believe he went for it and got it i dont know if that would be the correct call, but that was a little frustrating

That would be extremely frustrating - which is why I suggest when you guys organize times to play make sure you let your opponent know what you don't think is sim. You live and you learn next user match up make sure your opponent knows you intend to go for it on 4th in close games or if you think it's cheap. I would certainly be pissed. Any time I've went for it on 4th I've always msg'd my opponent through PSN and told them and waited for a response before I ran my play. You should never rush an opponent in a pause with the 30 second clock, if they need to communicate give them the itme and when they're ready that clock will come up for you.

4th downs are tough....depending where it is on the field.....if i had a 4th and short to seal the game....I see no problem going for it...if you dont convert...you're fucked....but thats on them

oh...that reminds me...I hate....absolutely hate getting messages during a game.....for everyone that plays me....i will go for it on 4th and short if i feel i can convert it....as long as i'm not on my side of the 50...I see no problems with it

Wtf? I was down 21-0 at the end of the 1st qtr. Wake returns the opening kickoff for a td. On my 2nd play, my qb gets hit while throwing... you know how this ends. Interception. Four plays later its 14-0. Five plays into my next drive...... fumble! Guess who recovers? Certainly not the heels. Five plays later its 21-0. I was sitting on my couch with my mouth hanging open. Am grateful its not a mild season where flying insects might be present. Long story short (I know, too late), I score a td with about 30 seconds left to win. Somehow, Wake gets to my forty, and I have to sweat out two heaves into the end zone. Good lord.

these sliders make you earn your wins sometimes...makes for some exciting games

If you're up by 4 or more I think it's unneccesary. You should kick the field goal to make it a 7 point game or more or pin them back and rely on your defence because in a user game the opposing team should be rewarding for not allowing a first down on ANY three downs, in my opinion.

there are 4 downs for a reason....if i am out of field goal range....and its 4th and short....i have to go for it...no matter what the score....there are alot of non conservative coaches out there

I know that but when you're up I just think it's cheap because anyone can move the chains when using 4 downs in this OD. Some plays are literally undefendable in those situaitons, multi WR sets and slant patterns to convert on 4th is cheap in my personal opinion. I think the majority of us can agree and if an opponent has a problem with you going for it on 4th up by 4 or more and late in the game - I'd hope you'd respect that. Of course if you've established going for 4th is fine and you're both "non conservative coaches" by all means have a shoot out!

And about the pausing, please Jesse don't rush your opponent. Communication is key and sometimes messages need to be sent. Communication is the reason we're in year 4 of this OD with no interest having been lost by any of you so far. Keep that in mind!

I'm talking 4th and 2 and lower here

4th and inches - whatever. Having stopped your opponent after three downs should be rewarded with a kick. That's just the way I see it.

Has anyone heard from Pitt?

We are breezing through this season, and he hasnt been getting on...

wow, that was not much fun...not sure what the fux you guys are doing to beat the CPU so bad..cause I'm getting my ass kicked with these sliders, and I know I'm not a great player but 5-3 in player vs player games...but this is brutal...I can't move the freakin ball...and the CPU is playing out of there mind...throwing up crazy pass completions on 3rd and 15...the ball must have hit my DB and LB right in the face 3 times no INT, while the CPU DB catch everything...my last 3 games

Ok Why is that a questionable call i wasn't at the center of the field. I was on your 40 yard line. My kicker dont got the power to kick from that far. And i felt that if i got the first down that i could run down the clock more and maybe get into FG range to go up more than 7. I mean it didnt even work because after i got the first down you sacked me for like 20 yards so it didnt matter. I mean in some cases you have to go for it on 4th down. its not like it was 4th and 5 or 4th and 10 it was 4th and 2.

so whats the status here, who we waiting on?
