Ok cool. I'm not sure if I'll be home tonight but I am we can play if you're available.

My game against OU just froze on my with 7:15 left in the 3rd quarter. Whats interesting is its just the screen that's frozen as it froze as I was using coach cam and in an attempt to unfreeze I snapped the ball and I could hear the play going on but the screen was still frozen, Ash at least completed the pass.

Its a hard freeze as well, couldn't restart using the controller, had to power off via the console.

Texas downs Oklahoma 69-0 as the Longhorns continue to flex their muscle.

Everything was clicking in the game, the offense put up 714 yards (588 passing, 126 rushing) and the defense held the Sooners to 239 yards on 84 plays from scrimmage (2.8 per play). Malcolm Brown ran for 113 yards on 16 carries and MJ McFarland owned the middle of the Sooner defense catching 12 passes for 334 yards and 5 touchdowns. Kenny Vaccaro was the star of the defense by scoring two defensive touchdowns on two interceptions.

After scoring 52 points in the first half the Longhorns played (and simmed) the entire second half with backups gaining valuable time.

Mine will be done tonight. Tried to play it last night but locked up at halftime.

[ryby6969]

Kingpin and I are having issues with connecting. It gets to the loading screen after the team select screen, but no tips show up and it just keeps loading. We have tried twice now.

Try deleting the tuner and trying again...I've seen some weirdness since the latest tuner was released.

Alabama knocks off Okie St by the score of 52-21. The offense was on point today for the Tide, as they compile 524 yards of offense on the day. McCarron complete 70% of his passes on the day, throwing for 300+ yard and 2 scores. Lacy added 4 scores on the ground and the defense contributed by holding the Cowboy's to under 50% completion in the passing game.


Good game Kingpin, my offense picked up where it left off in the 2nd half vs FSU. McCarron has thrown the ball well the last 3 games, and hopefully that continues the rest of the season. Norwood is emerging as my big play threat in the passing game, and that has helped out a great deal.
