I tried to post this in the Reoccurring Issues area, but I don't have proper access to do so, so any Mod who wants to move this, you have my blessing. Here is the problem.
I took over as OC at and am currently in year 3. I rearranged the WAC to 12 teams and the first 2 years we won the WAC Championship and have won the Orange Bowl {over Maryland} and Fiesta Bowl {over TCU} and now, in year 3, we are 6-0 and ranked # 1.
Yet... I have never had one single game listed as being on TV. Regional or National. We have gone 11-3, 13-1 and now 6-0. That's 30-4 and zero games on TV. This year, year 3, we have played road games at , , and and yet my average attendance is 16,172. The Kibbie Dome holds 16,000... but the road games are all big... 50,000... to 90,000 and yet my average is 16,172.
When recruiting, Television is D+ despite being 30-4 and currently # 1 in the country.
When you go to Team Info by hitting Y when you are getting ready to face your next opponent, I have zero games on TV. Not even Regional games.
Now if really did this in real life, they would be on TV, regionally and nationally.
Something for EA to address. It's not hurting my recruiting, as I have landed many 3 star players who have come in and played well and one 4-star WR who's a STUD... he caught 162 passes his Freshman year w/ 15 TD's and has 79 through 6 games this year. But the TV thing is crap. This week I play #5 ... I have since moved to the PAC-16... a Super Conference, and yet I am never, ever on TV and know that this huge conference game... # 1 vs # 5 will show as zero TV for me.
My Coach Prestige is A+, Coach Loyalty is A, Championship Contender is B and Athletics Facilities is B and Fan Support is B... and yet I can't even make the TV in Moscow???
