I just finished doing mines online and got two instant commits. I'll probably get my game in sometime tomorrow evening.

Welcome to the TGTD!

No user vs user games this week but everyone does have a CPU game. Hoping to get everyone accustomed to the sliders and such without too many loses (cause this sliders will most definitely challenge you).

We are still looking for another member to take over a Big East team. Hopefully we can find someone because, unfortunately, I only have 2 user vs user games because of it.

I see you shy'd away from that week 4 matchup :P

I would have gladly kept it, but it made you have 4 user vs user games (and I had to have you have 3 because you were the only user available for Kentucky or someone for their 3rd user game).

I'll gladly live up to my side of the deal next season though. :)

Penn State defeats Boston College 55-21

This was a very weird game for me. This is the biggest win I have had since I played NCAA 11 and in the first half I couldn’t stop BC. I’m not going to do a write up, but here are some notes I took during the game.

Penn State fumbled the opening kickoff, which gave Boston College the ball inside the PSU 15. They scored a few plays later.
On PSU second play of the game, starting running back Royster injures his elbow and is out for the game.
With a little more than 2 minutes to go in the half, inside the BC 3, I run a QB power, get stuffed and end up losing starting QB Newsome for the rest of the game
Next possession for BC, they throw about a 15 yard pass, their player gets hit and fumbles, only to have another BC player scoop it up and run it in for a TD (I have this highlight saved)
Very next play – I was going to run out the half so I go into goaline formation, to my surprise Greene goes 77 yards for the TD.
At the half Boston College QB was 9/10 for 143 yards and 2 TD’s. At the end of the game he was 11/16 for 157 yards and 2 TD’s
I threw 1 time the whole second half. It was on my first drive that was 11 plays and almost ate up 5 minutes. 10 of those were runs.
I had like 42 carries for 356 yards and 5 TDs and only threw 13 times the whole game.
Greene came in for the injured Royster and carried the ball 26 times, 296 yards (I think) and 5 TDs
I couldn’t stop the BC offense in the first half and I was up 27-21… they didn’t score again in the second half.

Like I said, just a weird game. I had so much trouble in the first half, but the 2nd half I was getting a ton of pressure and BC QB couldn’t hit anyone… they had a ton of three and outs and had two turnovers. One was on a kickoff that we picked up and run in for a TD.

My sincerest apologies to you all, I have to resign from the OD, I recently had a close family member pass away and will not be able to dedicate the time needed to be an active participant. I appreciate the opportunity to play along with you all, its just a terrible time for myself and my family right now. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

We've advanced to Week 2 of the dynasty fellas. Couple bye games and a couple CPU games. Shouldn't take too long. You have until Sunday, July 25th at midnight to finish it up.

And damn you CDJ for taking my offensive lineman! ;)
