That's just on the offensive side of the ball. I can't remember if the defensive numbers are the same or not...I would have to go through my notes at home unless someone knows off the top of their head.Originally Posted by georgiafan

Makes perfect sense so find the Playbook with the least amount of goalline and go from there. I coach my team to score from outside the 20 anyway. Lol

good deal I thought so just wanted to double check I don't really care about defense custom playbooks as I only run a handful of plays on defense anyway.
As a broad statement, there are three basic teams, Gameplay, Presentation, & Features/Dynasty. There are devs & producers for each and then at the top of the pyramid is Roy who oversees it all. Russ & Ben would fall mostly under the Features/Dynasty area; Jean, Greg & Adam would fall mostly under Presentation; Scantlebury & Larry fall mostly under Gameplay. Obviously there is some overlap with each of them but that's the basic layout. As well there are plenty of other behind the scenes guys but those are the ones that seem to have made a presence in the community.
Kwizzy should be able to answer that tonight but I'm thinking that applies to defense as well.The 40 formations/ 377 plays is that just for offense? or is it offense and defense?
It almost has to be offense and defense, 40 formations on just offense seems really high.
No... I'm positive that you can have up to 40 formations for offense. The count for each is completely separate... not a limitation like "27 offensive, 13 defensive" or anything like that.
Yeah an offensive playbook is a separate file from your defensive playbook. So you can definitely have up to 40 different formations on offense.
I don't know, 40 seems really high for offense. I'm sitting here trying to go through the playbook that I use all the time and I'm only coming up with about 15 or 16 formations, not including special teams and goaline. Unless they've really bulked up the size of the playbooks, but 40 could be overwhelming.
Wow just getting one to read through this as I was slammed today. Im sure I'll have some questions after I get time to sift through here though.
Very nice, I'm going to enjoy breaking this down in the game. Hours will be lost playing with this feature for sure.
I believe the largest playbooks from NCAA12 had 23 formations, however that doesn't count hidden formations (like Emory & Henry). As well, you now have the option of having formations with just one or two plays in it if you desire so you may have 40 formations that each only have a handful of plays. Whatever suits your needs.
i can't now bit go into your google docs if u saved it, Gschwendt had the formations for each team there.
Ok that makes sense, now I grasp that part. Thanks
I thought 40 was really high as well so i had the spread sheet open and i counted 209 offense formations. This includes all the different goaline formations accept goaline wishbone, which was not in my version of the spread sheet for some reason.
My concern was someone creating a situation where you would have to defend every formation in the game. With some new additions, 40 formations still will only be less than 20% of all available offensive formations.
You could use 40 formations but you wouldn't have 20 plays per formation like you do now with most of the current formations. You would basically be sacrificing a variety of plays in a smaller # of formations for a smaller # of plays in a large variety of formations.
Basically it just lets you expand on the whole "showing more looks" idea that is becoming popular at the college level these days.
I think it's called Goalline Tight (or something like that) as a reference to Wishbone Tight formation (which is essentially the same thing).
BTW, along those lines, you could always create a playbook with the Goalline Normal formation and then add in the Maryland I and/or Wishbone Tight to achieve the other various goalline formations.
Thanks G. Really disappointed if the formation audibles are set in stone since 95% of them are the same across almost all of the formations.
i thought it was called goaline tight but its been a while, but Florida is listed as running a regular goaline formation on my spread sheet and Army, Navy, GTech and Miss St are the only teams listed using goaline tight.
Thanks. Hopefully they made it were you can change them. So many of the schemes that people make revolves around formation audibles. Having the ability to change them to whatever you want them to be would be HUGE for scheme creations.
Yeah, I may be wrong about Florida having it... though I know that Mississippi State has it so that might be where my confusion comes in (ie Mullen being at MSU)
Florida has 4 Wishbone Tight plays. They are just within the Goaline Normal package.
