Oneback, I'll be out today/tonight. How does Sunday evening/night look for you?

[Oneback]

That may work, but we'd have to kick off close to 6:30p, otherwise we can go Monday as I'm usually home from work around 3pm.

[gschwendt]

I also sent you a text but I can also start right now if you're around... otherwise 6:30 tomorrow should work.

Auburn looses a heart breaker to Florida. Good game g.

Florida Defeats Auburn 45-42 in a Final Seconds Victory

Throughout the entire game, the offenses took turns scoring back and forth. Both with a balanced attack, both moving the ball almost at will. Each team finished with over 400 yards of offense with Florida notching 512 and Auburn 429.

Starting the fourth quarter, the score showed Florida with a narrow lead at 31-28. Auburn quickly changed that as in the first minute of the quarter, they scored on a 40 yard playaction bomb that connected just over the outstretched hands of the FS. Florida looked to bounce back quickly but on the next play from scrimmage, UF QB Joey Jones forced pass right into the Auburn defender's arms. After returning the pick to the four yard line, AU HB Greg Brown capped off the drive with a quick touchdown. Now down 11 points early in the quarter, the Florida defense would have to step up.

Florida's ensuing drive saw QB Jones go on a tear hoping to make up for his previous mistake. Jones completed 3 of 4 passes for 70 yards capping off the quick drive with a 33 yard pass to WR Travis Clifford over the middle of the field. Needing to step up, the defense answered the call forcing a punt on Auburn's ensuing drive to give their offense the ball back with 3:15 remaining in the game.

Down 4, the Gators knew they not only had to score a touchdown but wanted to run out as much clock as possible along the way. With a good mix of short passes and bruising runs by HB Randall Williams, the Gators eventually moved the ball down to the 1 yard line with 1:01 remaining and Auburn with no timeouts. After 3 unsuccessful runs that netted zero yards, the Gators put it all on the line calling a timeout with 3 seconds left on the clock, 4th and Goal from the 1. HB Michael Swan took the ball off tackle and found no one from the defense in front of him allowing him to walk into the endzone giving the Gators a 3 point lead with 1 second left on the clock.

After a squib kick ran out the remaining clock, Florida fans celebrated their second victory on the season. The Gators next travel to Fayetteville, AR to face Razorback44 and the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Congrats Skip!!!

[skipwondah33]

Congrats Skip!!!haha thanks Jeff!!!!

I about did cartwheels around the house

Feels good to finally get one

[JeffHCross]

I had just gotten done telling my girlfriend that you were 0-fer when I noticed that you had won. We were both happy, lol. And she said "You should tell him: I remember when I won my first game ...". She was here when I beat JB for my first win, and I was overjoyed. And then when I won my CPU game the next week, with all those recruits ... I don't think I've ever been that happy to beat the computer, even counting when I won the National Title on '13 -- because usually CPU games have been foregone conclusions. Not so much this year. So I understand, totally.

She was here for both of those wins, and also for the horrible deflating loss to Notre Dame (like 99 billion to 7). So she's learned a lot about how I play NCAA in the last month :D

[skipwondah33]

lol

Just needed to realize how to play them. Not sure you can play them like a user.

Plus with these teams.

Going to spring board for us lol. Now I have OB and G left both of which have played this game religiously more than I have

[JeffHCross]

Ohio State's win streak ends with a whimper at home against the Spartans. Don't know how they've been doing as poorly this year as they have ... they still have a buzzsaw of a Front 7.

[JeffHCross]

Still to play

Hopefully not Georgia

[skipwondah33]

Nice, thanks Jeff. Site was messing up for me.

Looking forward to it though just starting to get comfortable with the game again and all I need is a set back from OB lol

Recruiting
RazorWhat's the hold up? If JB doesn't advance tomorrow, we won't be advancing until Saturday ... unless we rely on Snoop :sick: :fp: :D

[skipwondah33]

Oh that's right

Ready for advance!!

[marcotte14]

I'm ready!!

[psusnoop]

I'm ready to advance and I will have no problem advancing the OD.

Also I'm not sure how to say this but how in the world of our type of league is a HB leading the country in receptions and yards?

30 more catches then the closet WR and darn near double that in yards???

Gotta be huge XP, papa is leaving most of us in the dust with some big xp points and I'm debating on these final games to change the game plan to compete in the future.

Any thoughts???

[JeffHCross]

I'm ready to advance and I will have no problem advancing the OD.Knew you wouldn't. Just had to say it :D


Gotta be huge XP, papa is leaving most of us in the dust with some big xp points and I'm debating on these final games to change the game plan to compete in the future.Agreed. I don't begrudge anyone from finding an offense that works for their personnel, especially with these teams that we didn't really have a hand in picking or building. But Papa's stats are out of this world.

[skipwondah33]

Leading in TD receptions too

Going to win the the Best RB award with 1,500 fewer rushing yards but 2,000 more receiving lol

I also haven't scored 90 points combined all season sadly :(

[gschwendt]

Eric & Escobar remain. Razor still has 1200 points in recruiting.

[psuexv]

Eric & Escobar remain. Razor still has 1200 points in recruiting.

I'll get mine in tonight

[gschwendt]

Escobar still remains and Razor still needs to recruit... whats the story guys?

[skipwondah33]

Escobar hasn't been on PAN for 2 days

Not sure about Razor, just has points.

Ready to roll.

[psusnoop]

Escobar still remains and Razor still needs to recruit... whats the story guys?

Got word Razor is good to go.

[psusnoop]

Escobar hasn't been on PAN for 2 days

Not sure about Razor, just has points.

Ready to roll.

I'm tired of waiting to be honest. What was the deadline? Anyone hear from Escobar?

[gschwendt]

Since we haven't heard anything, I'd say deadline is tomorrow morning so that maybe he can play it overnight.

[psusnoop]

Since we haven't heard anything, I'd say deadline is tomorrow morning so that maybe he can play it overnight.

I just sent a text, if no response by 1am I'm advancing.

Not on the same topic but quoted so you'd get the alert :)

What are your thoughts on the HB I mentioned from Papa? We shouldn't be running that type of offense collecting huge XP like that should we?

If so my stats are going to be crazy heading forward because we are already 2 to 4 levels behind him in coaching and I'm not dropping anymore behind.

Well the passing to the HB won't get him crazy XP, it's all the scoring that will get him XP. He'd only get the 250 yards passing bonus no matter who caught it.

That said, it certainly stuck out to me as well. Papa... can you tell us about your offense and why your HB has 30 more receptions and ~500 yards more receiving than any other WR in the country?

[psusnoop]

It will garner him huge xp for awards at the end of the season. He also broke school records too.

His HB and QB are up for many awards at the end of the season as well as the Heisman.

We have only 1 player between the 11 other teams up for an award Texas has 9 or 10. Now most are the same two players but still if he wins the heisman and pulls those awards we will be sucking hind tit in every area to Texas for seasons to come.

[psusnoop]

Now the school records are not a huge deal to me just thought if mention it in regards to you saying it wouldn't get him much xp. Those are a one time shot but I'm sure he got over 500-1000 for receptions, yards, passing yards, and passing TD's. Or will here soon.

[psusnoop]

Escobar just hopped online. I'll be advancing once he is done

[psusnoop]

Advancing now

Wow.

First, it's amazing how much better you two are at a vertical passing game than I am. Not sure how much of that is personnel and how much is sticks. Second, same statement about being multiple in formation and personnel. I'm not at all there right now. Third, it's kind of surprising that from the video there wasn't an obvious difference between our DP teams and a traditional Powerhouse game. I guess it's because, even with DP teams, they're still so closely matched.

I guess it's because, even with DP teams, they're still so closely matched.I picked up the same thing Jeff. The teams played exactly like two powerhouse teams in terms of the blocking being wide open and the RB's having room to run, breaking tackles and speed.

I know when Razor and I played he had room for days but I didn't have anywhere near the success those he or those two just had.

My vertical passing also sucks, someone was always open and they had time to throw...I'd be sacked everytime trying to run Play Action lol.

Good game though fellas.

OB I was wondering why you said 7-7:30 when I put after 8 hahaha. Forgot that you were central time so that would have made it 8-8:30. Whichever is good for you. Wife gave me a bump up in my normal playing availability.

[Oneback]

Re-watching that video just reminds me of how many throws I missed on 3rd down, my wife had a knack for coming in the room at the exact right moment and wanting to talk to me about something. Nothing better than one read throws into coverage on 3rd down.
