I'm assuming we will be in Week 8 sometime this weekend. I will try and get on and do my recruiting via the web. Also might try and play my game on the ride back Sunday, we are going to try and use my friend's Droid as a hot spot and connect the PS3, if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

[skipwondah33]

Can't buy another recruit. Strange I didn't get to 6 star pretige this year

[fsuprime]

its not automatic, you have a random chance of it happening (unless u win the title and are already a 5*)

have to win conference title for an automatic increase as well (coupled with top5 finish) there is a post somewhere in utopia or here with all the rules for being demoted or promoted from each prestige level from EA.

John Clay continues to dominate Big Ten defenses, this time carrying the ball 30 times for 311 yards with 3 touchdowns. His season total comes to 170 carries for 1695 yards and 20 touchdowns.

[Escobar]

That game it seemed like the CPU had it in for me. I injured their starting QB twice, and their backup comes in and fires the ball all over the place. I had to get that run by Ellington to put me ahead with 55s left. Then of course their backup drives down the field and gets a lucky comeback route to their 5 with 3s left on 3rd down to set up the field goal.

Despite fumble trouble, Oklahoma's new pistol-spread offense beats Cal 42-26.

The "Pistol-Spread" Offense debuted in a rainy day in Norman as three fumbles cost Oklahoma some points but they still beat Cal by 16, 42-26. Landry Jones had a fine day at QB throwing a 20-for-32 day with 361 yards passing and 3 TDs. Jones, on read options and options in general picked up 20 yards on the ground. Jermie Calhoun had 20 carries for 144 yards and 2 TDs, and Clay had 14 yards and a TD. Roy Finch had a 14 yard run, but every other carry he took went for negative yards putting him at 0. Jaz Reynolds had a fine day recieving with 7 catches for 122 yards. Ryan Broyles caught 6 passes for 141 yards and 2 TDs, while Dejuan Miller did not make a catch until the third and finished with 4 catches for 78 yards and a TD.

David King and Jamarkus McFarland had sacks for the OU defense. Travis Lewis forced a fumble, and DB Jamell Fleming recovered it.

At one point in the game, Cal had a 17-14 lead before a 28-9 run to end the game by the Sooners.

Next week we get #2 Texas, the first of three user-user games in four weeks.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

I've got to go back on something I said earlier. Man Coverage is nerfed ... depending on your sliders. Me and Snoop certainly proved last night that Man Coverage still does just fine in USER games. CPU, however, is a different story.

The comeback AI is certainly back, though not nearly as pronounced as it used to be. But when the CPU starts rolling ... good luck stopping them. They won't screw you out of a win, but you'll have to play your heart out.

Ohio State wins 69-65 in 4 OTs. Yes, a 4 point win in overtime. On the final play, West Virginia's 2 point conversion attempt, Senior MLB Greg Bellasari stepped in front of the QB's pitch, and, just to add insult to a loss, ran it back all the way to gain a 4-point victory.

Ohio State HB Pepe Pearson rushes for 203 yards ... around 192 of which came before the 4th quarter. In the 4th, West Virginia suddenly gained a run defense and it was Ohio State sophomore QB Joe Germaine that had to step up. After West Virginia took the lead on a 67 yard drive that took 38 seconds, Ohio State marched down field on a scoring drive of their own, taking a 3 point lead.

Of course, West Virginia had absolutely no problem getting into FG range with only 32 seconds remaining.

This I agree with. I was up 28-0 at the end of the half last night against Indiana then half way through the 3rd quarter I gave up a field goal to make it 28-3, from this point on you would have thought Peyton Manning was at quarterback and the 90's all-decade team was manning the reciever spots as they marched up and down the field for 20 points in the final 8 minutes of play.

I have also had the problem of my quarterback going from a 68-72% passer to a 50% passer against the CPU defense...Indiana's C+ rated defense, not to mention Notre Dame's B rated defense that completely shut down my running game 2 weeks ago.

I recruited already and I'm going to try to play my game before I head into the bowling alley tonight. I bowl then I'm going to help out the staff there because of a big party coming at 10pm. I probably won't get home till 2am or so and I have to come into work tomorrow at 6am to get things rolling. So the latest I play my CPU game is Saturday mid morning though I'm really going to push to have mine done today between 3pm and 4pm.
