okay i had to edit my post so i basically just started it over.

i played the # 1 ranked offense in the nation Virginia. Who averaged 32 pts a game. I shut them down with first and second string D held them to 6 points.

They had 150 passing yards and 73 rushing yards. grand total of 223 yards, 0 tds, 1 INT.

After 1 game Vanderbilt is the #9 ranked defense in the nation and #42 Offense.

I lost a heartbreaker to Michigan at the Big House, 34-31. I played my 2nd string QB, Darron Thomas, because he is an 84 speed. He put up OK numbers, going 19 of 24 for 260 yards and 2 td's. Threw 2 picks, though.

He got hurt at the end of the 3rd and I played my first stringer, Kempt. He went 5-5 for 19 yards and a touchdown and led the drive to put Oregon up 28-24. However, freakin Meeeeechigan returned the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a TD to put them up 31-28.

My starting QB (the speed QB) came back and led the game-tying drive. I had to settle for a FG after getting a little too conservative, I think. So it's 31-31 with 1:25 left in the game...and what do you know? Michigan drives all the way down to the 3 yard line and kicks a FG with :05 left.

My desperation Hail Mary at the end of the game was batted down and that was your ballgame.

Here are some team stats:

Oregon-361 yards of total offense, 279 yards passing and 82 yards rushing. 2 turnovers.

Michigan-287 yards of total offense, 248 yards passing and 39 rushing yards (on 20 attempts). 0 turnovers.

The turnovers and their kickoff return TD was the difference in the ballgame...

If i do say so, Michigan severely out-manned us so I was fortunate to be in a position to win at the end...but i'll only get better the more I play with them....SO WATCH OUT USC!
