      You're absolutely right but that was after LSU gave him the cold shoulder. Lsu passed on him after taking Derron Thomas's
      commitment but he signed with oregon so lsu settled for Jefferson. it was too late for les to get RGIII b/c Briles already showed major intrest. Check SI.com

      ... somehow, yes. And that's not the first time I've done that either. Yikes.

      Yes. I can answer that with certainty.

      On Tuesday both a co-worker (casual football fan, kids both play PS3 so we talk games often, but only casually) and my father commented on the spots. The co-worker had seen the Tebow spot, and my dad saw the Ohio State spot. Getting people talking about the game may not generate significant sales, but it should provide a bump at the least.

      Not to mention ... SB Nation is talking about these spots a lot. The Georgia blog is, in particular, not really happy about this. Maybe that ends up costing you some sales ... maybe it doesn't, though. (Side note: that blog really is pretty entertaining. EA HATES GEORGIA!)

      EDIT: Just found this in the comments of the Georgia post:
      There are usually some good release day rosters
      To be found at pastapadre.com. They are name only online usable rosters usually. And then after a week or so they’ll have updated stat/ranking rosters. You may have to make Marshall or Gurley and the like though.
      pastapadre's rosters
      are named “thegamingtailgate”.

      Someone obviously is no rocket scientist or hasn't stayed at a Holiday Inn Express lately because I dont recall Pasta ever having "release day" rosters.

      Pastapadre did promote/credit the TGT rosters though,thats a positive

      Both are right. As far as I know, Pasta has never created release day rosters (as far as I can recall, he's never created rosters, period). But he does promote rosters when they're released, including TGT's.

      Are you playing on Freshman? Or is there not a skill level, or what?

      As far as I know its default (not sure if you can even change the settings). Honestly, it wouldn't matter as I am barely trying and still putting up these ungodly #s. Once I get a start I then sim the rest of the season win the Heisman and move on to the next guy.

      Well you wouldn't necessarily "have" to put up these #s. I'm merely showing that they are possible and in fact easy to do. This Blitz The League Slow Mo thing makes things so..... easy its not even funny.

      Ware through 3 games = 104/126, 2700 Passing Yards, 35 TDs, 5 Ints

      Unfortunately that would normally be enough for just about every other Heisman winner to beat their stats but Ware's stats are ungodly. Shame on for runnin' up the score
