Sorry for the delays but I am in the process of advancing, this week will advance Thursday night.
Maryland gets a 24-3 win over FSU and clinches the ACC Atlantic. Da Rel Scott got injured yet again, so only got about 20 yards in the game.
I'll try to make it to the title game so we can have an epic battle again :)Quote:

Well CDJ and I can't even get to the point of connection, we can't get past the "team select" screen. To one guy it's normal, to the other, the opponent never leaves the "waiting for opponent" stage. I've e-mailed the devs to hopefully get a quick resolution on this since both of our connections are opened up. But this isn't even a connection issue, it's a syncing issue.
is it the same no matter who initiates the game?(who starts and send the invite) I've had some user games in other OD who one person couldn't host it for whatever reason, but if the other person started the game, they would be able to play.Quote:

Da Rel Scott is just cursed this season. injured for the game yet again, this time after 5 carries, 63 yards and 2 TDs. 3rd straight game for him being injured and out of the game in the 1st quarter.
Maryland finishes off the ACC schedule with a 42-21 win against rival NC State. offense was on roll in this game. defense had some issues at times, mostly against the pass, but played good enough to get the win. Maryland moves to 9-2 in the season and both loses came in OT games. a very good season for the Terps.
Jamarr Robinson was credited with the player of the game after going 16-22(72%) 278 yards 1 TD, 3 carries 26 yards rush 1 TD. Meggett and Scott both had 2 rush TDs. WR Torrey Smith had 8 catches 198 yards 1 TD. defensively, MLB Alex Wujciak got 8 solo tackles(10 total).
Northwestern stumbles in their season ending match-up with Wisconsin. Evan Watkins who had filled in so well for injured starter Dan Persa finally saw his luck run out as he threw three picks and the Northwestern offense struggled early. The 14-0 hole was to much for the Wildcats to make up as they fell 27-17 to the Badgers to fall to 9-3 overall and 6-2 in conference.
So instead of finishing second in the Big Ten the Wildcats now face a fourth place finish in the Big Ten and a possible date in the Gator Bowl.
Insane game against Virginia today.
The majority of the first half saw VT with fumbles and EVERY time UVA would either take it all the way back or drive down with a short field to get a TD. For the game, VT had five turnovers giving Virginia 35 points - at one point in the first half, VT was down 35-7. Finally, late in the game VT gets to the 6 yard line, trailing 45-42 with no timeouts and the clock at :13 and running - so I kicked a FG to force OT.
In OT, UVA scores a TD to start and go up 52-45. On 3rd down from the 12, I tossed an INT which they of course returned all the way back for the fifth turnover of the game and a 58-45 upset loss. Crazy game, CPU QB passed for 440 yards. Just couldn't stop them, especially on 3rd down.
UM takes out OSU with some lucky breaks, i.e. Pryor takes a sack late and then heaves one downfield even though he had a safer completion that would have probably kept the drive alive underneath. I think it was only 3-0 at the half, but scoring opened up in the 2nd half as both teams went to the air, as OSU even came back to take the lead, but they couldn't keep tabs on Denard Robinson escaping pressure and finding receivers running free downfield.
In case you see the restarts: One was from my 3 yr old deciding she wanted to watch one of her shows and hitting the touchscreen on the Harmony remote. The other was same said 3 yr old having an accident (those that have had kids doing well in potty-training but forgetting now and then know what I mean) while mom was busy making dinner and not thrilled that dad was playing football at that moment. Lesson: Go back to playing games after family goes to bed.
Will advance tomorrow night.
Everyone has finished, and now the week has advanced. Solidice and Lilheavy have a user match, and Austinwolv has a CPU match, the rest are on byes. Let's try to wrap it up quickly so we can finish the end of the regular season fast.
I will be able to do my recruiting tonight late after work. I will have some hours left, it's okay to advance past it JB.
No problem, advancing on Friday night...
....and it won't be advanced til late Friday night. So you have tonight and tomorrow to get your games in.
So I used all my recruiting hours, amazing what you can find late in the year if you look hard enough.
apparently Microsoft censors the word Kentucky. lol
on the console, on dynasty wire it says "Michigan takes care ************, 34-14"
Maryland falls to #1 LSU 27-7. 2 turnovers and a few dropped passes late in the game did Maryland in. it was a pretty defensive game for the most part. 243 offensive yards for LSU, 226 for Maryland.
I believe all the games have been played for the week.
I saved some videos, but it failed to upload them for some reason(gave a failed to upload message)
Give it another try on the upload. Server may have just been not cooperating at the time.
I think CDJ and myself need to play our games yet IIRC. I'm playing sometime tonight after my Tiger league rounds.
Advanced to week 15, only recruiting is needed to be done by all teams, so I will advance on Sunday night.
the last guy on my recruiting board sign elsewhere, so my regular season recruiting is done.
done with recruiting with one hour left, i am ready to advance
We have advanced to the conference championship week.
There is no recruiting and three members have games:
Miami (JBHuskers) vs. Maryland (Solidice) - ACC Championship
LSU (Lilheavy) vs. Tennessee - SEC Championship
Please get your games in by Thursday.
Solidice, I will be free tomorrow night after 6 central or so. Tuesday it won't be til later, probably after 10. Wednesday, unless we start right at 5 I can't with dart league starting up.
tomorrow should be good.
K, when I get home sometime after 10PM central, I'll log on and look for ya.Quote:

GG JB.
Wow for the 2nd time this year Solidice and myself go into overtime. I pulled out a 24-17 win with my backup QB & RB. Forced five turnovers, but the key to the game was a holding call after he was about to score to tie it up. That backed him up enough to where I was able to stop him on four downs. Great game dude! Looks like Jacory and Berry are out four weeks....but with a BCS bid, I may get them back just in time for the bowl game.
I have now advanced to bowl season. I will advance late Saturday night.
Only one user game in the bowls .... and that is the Orange Bowl between myself and Romo.
Lilheavy playing for the national title against Boise....good luck!
I still can't believe Scott fumbled so much. I was even using the protect ball button! lol
oh well, not bad a season for a team that only won like 2 games lat year in real life.
Nope 9-4 is solid. Should bring attention to some recruits.Quote:

I would guess he had at least 4 200 yards games, maybe 5. he did great when he didn't fumble or get injured. he is a senior though, so Meggett will have to step in next season. Meggett was not bad though, 119 carries 631 yards himself. I'll probably spread the carries next year though between 2-3 backs. hopefully I can give Scott a good final game in the Chick-fil-A bowl against Georgia.
I just remember that I had a chance to kick a FG at the end of the first half, but for some reason it wouldn't let me no-huddle/spike it. that made me mad(I had no timeouts). that could have been enough for me to win.
IIRC Berry finished 4th in the nation with 1300 yards rushing....not bad considering he didn't start until week 3.Quote:

plaiyng the Chick-fil-A bowl against Georgia right now. wearing the Wounded Warrior uniforms. looks nice.
I love the bowl games, the intros, the crowd seems louder, etc..
Da Rel Scott, on his 2nd carry of the game breaks the school record for rushing yards in a season. good senior year for him.
shit....didn't he have 25 sacks? :D how in the world would you expect him to stay
lol. praying. :D
that dude was crazy. I stopped using him against the CPU cause I thought I was using some unknown exploit or something, but even him being controlled by the CPU he go off. :D
Good riddance I say :) or transfer ;)
