I’ve been running a lot of 3-3-5 or going 2-4. If it’s third and long I usually switch to a dime package.

I know last year almost every team I’d play in the playoffs had a 70/30 or more pass to run ratio.

I don’t know what the hell you guys are doing to run but my line can’t create a fricking hole to save their life. Played auburn, again, rage quit again, against auburn. Can’t run, 2 interceptions, can’t stop their fricking run.

How is the defense lining up when you are trying to run? I run a lot of my inside zone or rpo out of wide trip sets, or the wide spread.

I don’t run often on third and short unless I have the numbers advantage. I have found the cpu will clog up the middle on short yardage. With LSU or Fresno I’d run a lot on first down or even 2nd and long and throw 3rd and short.

The deep pass still isn’t working great but with the faster better WRs my screens and slants with Texas State are making bigger gains.

In my two games in my Texas state dynasty I’ve stopped running as much with my rb and run with my qb and have passed for 320 and 380. Part of it is for some reason the play style is so low for the qb at the start of the dynasty and he is a only a sophomore so I’m trying to not have to drop a massive NIL to keep him.

I also noticed since Sunday, my coach went from level 1 to level 7 in just 2 games. I don’t recall that happening with my Fresno, the early levels were 1 level a game.

My total yards were probably similar though I was passing a lot more the last 2 games.

My best run plays are shotgun y off trips (i believe) hb direct i also run an rpo out of shotgun called RPO slide read. Also pistol trips is good to run out of. Defensively I struggle. I usually just run some cloud zones mixed with LB blitzes every now and again and hope to get a stop

In time. First things first. I have to actually purchase an Xbox. But first time on gaming board in years. Good to see some of the same old nerds from old ncaa. Wonder if I can recover my tag.

Art! Glad to see you back! I'd recommend a PS5 if you need a console. I prefer over Xbox now. You'll see A LOT of the same faces in the Dynasty as well.

Played Michigan vs OU in my online dynasty. Heisman- won 13-3.

OU was in the backfield literally within 1 second. I kind of like the difficulty but Michigan's offense sucks cock and balls

I’m playing on Heisman for the first time since 2014 and it’s made dynasty so much more fun/frustrating. Had a 11-2 season with Texas State before taking the Purdue job. First year at Purdue I had a horrible team but went 10-3 losing in the first round of the playoffs.

Thought I was going to have a solid second season because my team went from a 69 overall to 78. I ended up going 8-5 losing to Minnesota, Northwestern, #10 A&M, Washington and then Ole Miss in the Music City Bowl. But that same season I beat number 2 Michigan at the Big House and #5 Ohio State at home.

Just started my third season and the team is 84 overall and beat Iowa State’s arse on the road to start the year and tonight I go to #8 BYU in Provo.

All American with slider adjustments has been perfect for me now that it's more difficult this year. I'm losing 65% of my games now but that will change once I get better and my team improves.

I've been playing football games my whole life. Once you get good at one level you move to the next. sooner or later the CPU is throwing the kitchen sink at you but it just get normalized I guess.

It helps to know your offensive playbook like the back of you hand. Knowing what works against what type of coverage shown will let you move the ball on most teams.

EA released a blog post and once again, have shot themselves in the foot.

Road to Glory Update:
"Standalone XP sliders are not returning to Road to Glory because progression in College Football 27 is now built around the full structure of the mode: difficulty, weekly decisions, Fitness, NIL deals, Wear and Tear, Legacy Score, scholarship bonuses, and on-field performance."


They have ruined the RTG mode.

Berry feels way faster than Durham.

That’s because Berry actually does look way faster than Durham. Durham looks like he’s running with 2 bricks tied under each of his feet in real life.

Eh, there is nothing anymore special about the PS5 than the Series X as far as gameplay. The Series X is actually the more powerful console.

I started as South Alabama OC. First season in the books. Alabama fired Deboer after a 6-6 season lmao. I expressed interest inthe job but didnt get it.
Now im stuck on whether i want to play a season with some decent recruits i got committed (3 3 star receivers 1 3 star qb) or jump ship to either Kansas or UAB as HC. Ive enjoyed the game Immensely in that regard. Starting as OC at a small school, fighting for 2 and 3 star recruits and seeing what offers come in. Highly recommend that route.
