Has anyone had any luck with this? I assume it's still pushing up on the right-analog stick.

I'm using the default rosters, named players from the link given on this site.

As an example, I'm throwing a stick to the TE in this case it's #89 Garry Gilliam from PSU, it says he's 6'6" and 277lbs. Well I catch it and run up field, then take on the A&M SS #2 Steven Campbell 6'0" 201 lbs and Campbell tackles him like it's no problem. I try and truck-stick him but it doesn't seem to matter? Should this TE run OVER the smaller SS?

If he has a high truck rating, yes.

You listed heights and weights, but those have zero influence on the success of a truck.

He's right, since height and weight don't matter in reference to momentum and such, the truck rating is the only thing that truly matters.

I haven't seen it work in this version to the level it worked in past versions, but last night I noticed being able to do it successfully if I used the stick earlier than in the past. So I wonder if they changed the timing of it.....

I think it has changed and as funny as it seems I have more success with it using my QB :D:D

It does seem to be earlier to me.

The timing has definitely changed, I can agree with that. Haven't been able to truck for anything this year.

Curiously, the Controls don't actually list it as "Truck" anymore. So it's also possible that the entire point/desired effect of the control has been modified.
