How do you play NCAA Football?

[mundo]

-What is your favorite game mode in NCAA Football 11 and why?
I am all offline dynasty for the same exact reason Joshuahuskers brings up

-Do you prefer to play Offense or Defense in NCAA Football 11?
I prefer to play offense because I just don't think the concepts are there on defense to be able to adjust as well as they are on offense (not that offense is perfect)

-What is your favorite play to run in NCAA Football 11 and why?
Not really sure I have one favorite play. If the question is what play do I call most by sheer frequency I would say read option in attempt to get some running game going as I build up my teams vs the big dogs.

-What is your favorite defensive formation to run in NCAA Football 11 and why?
I go 3-4 because as an Aggie if I don't I have to hand in my ring and maroon car (sarcasm). I do think the 3-4 gives me the best shot to adjust where I blitz from and change things up but that could be because I just know it better. It is also a ton of fun to recruit really good LBs that become badasses.

-Which side of the ball is your strength in NCAA Football 11?
My strength is definitely offense but that is probably because the defense is lacking some fundamental concepts that give the Offense a huge advantage. Many instances my offensive success is not because they made a bad play call, its just because their player doesn't align right or go to the right place.

-When on Offense in NCAA Football 11, do you prefer to Run or Pass the ball?
I like being as balanced as possible but it is really cool when a power run works out well

-When on Defense in NCAA Football 11, which position do you prefer to play and why?
I have mostly played the rush end. If I think they might run I am the DE/OLB on the strong/TE side, but if I think they are passing I go weak side. I do this mostly to make sure I am there to help against the run (which the CPU almost exclusively does strong side) and/or get a pass rush. However, recently I have been playing the MLB when he is a robber over the middle to help against the pass in case my DBs get rubbed off of WRs. I can't think of any other way to adjust

-How many points a game do you average on Offense in NCAA Football 11?
Nowhere near as many as I could if I wanted to. I typically force running the ball and slow down the offense in an attempt to keep the scores fairly in line with those on Saturdays... which are still pretty high these days...

-On Defense, which position do you think is the most important and why?
Gonna go with Safety with the way I play defense because I play a ton of 3-4 (even vs 3wr sets) and put my safety in man vs WR. If I have a really good safety that can cover, I can bring 5 every play to stuff the run game and harass the QB. When I have a bad safety, I have to start going back to the standard nickel and, if the CPU mixes it up well, they are able to run better - especially vs hurry up teams. Either way they still have moments against my safety because I just don't trust calling a zone and the matchup for them is rough.

-When you win the coin toss in NCAA Football 11, do you prefer to put your Offense or your Defense on the field first?
always defer and get the choice for the ball in the second half

DYNASTY QUESTION: When recruiting in NCAA Football 11, what position do you target first and why?

The position my team is in need of the most.

After that I tend to stock pile extra Wide Receivers and Cornerbacks.

[psuexv]

Any #1's at their position that have me #1 followed by position needs.

[steelerfan]

Needs come first, followed by the best players who have me high on their list.

DYNASTY QUESTION: When recruiting in NCAA Football 11, what position do you target first and why?

I'm with most on recruiting based on what is needed..but I always try to recruit a beastly FS. One about 6 to 6'3''....40 time b/t 4.3 to 4.5

[gschwendt]

Safety is usually one of my primary targets simply because I use the 3-3-5 and great safeties that can cover (both man & zone) and tackle are at a premium. After that it'd probably be linebackers but that's usually because they're so hard for me to sign for some reason.

Ah, the advantages of USC recruiting

I do a Self-Scout of all of my needs, identify who I need where, then go through searching my school's rankings -- i.e. I search through all the players that have me #1, then Top 3, then Top 5, adding everyone to my board that catches my eye.

Ah, the advantages of USC recruiting

Needs is what I try to shoot for. I do keep the ones that have me #1 on my board though and if I get a few commits I go after them as well. Which shows if you looked at my depth at QB, just crazy deep. I'm like G though with his LB'rs because I can't get a DT interested in my school it seems.

a combination of need and the best player that has interest in me
