Sim stats are fricked up as a soup sandwich right now. So many passing yards and no rushing yards for anyone.

I've had several roughing the kicker penalties already but gameplay seems mostly fine.

Don't throw the short curls to the outside receivers on Heisman, ever.

I'm having a difficult time with the RPO. So, tell me if I'm wrong, I hit X to snap and continue to hold it down, but the ball is still handed off. I've tried hitting X, releasing and then holding it down again real quick, but its still handed off...what am I doing wrong?!

Loving the gameplay. I know some of you won't admit it but this game plays a lot like Madden except it's just better at pretty much everything. I'm only on All American for now but so far I'm having no trouble rushing the QB with really good defensive lineman. I was using that high rated DE from Tennessee and was getting to the QB on almost every play with bull rush and swim moves. Also I was worried the speed of the game would be too fast but it feels just right for the most part.

You've come to the wrong place. None of us can figure it out either

I’ve sorta figured it out but I keep randomly defaulting back to how Madden has worked for 10+ years now. They made this change strictly to be different from Madden and it’s driving me crazy

The sim system is getting patched. It’s known that stats and results for games a bit too 50/50 at the moment.

I don’t know if they’re going to be able to patch this passing defense. It’s really fricking bad.

Play press man, your CBs whiff on the jam and you get burned deep. Play off man and they just hit the receiver in stride underneath while your CBs are running around guarding no one.

Play zone and the QB just picks it apart because your front can’t get any pressure.

whatcha mean? as in the defense is too good on coverage? Or they play loose and don't react well to a thrown pass?

Sliders help and switching up coverage. I'm keeping the Qb around 60 to 65 percent completion every game. Pretty realistic.

Yea, waiting on Operation Sports to release some slider tweaks. That will be a big help to this, but yea, as it stands right now, user defense is swiss cheese

Playing on heisman? I have a very hard time believing that. The only way I’ve kept them under 80% is by turning the catch slider for CPU way down.

Then they’re just dropping wide open passes which isn’t fun either.

ETA: Not to mention mixing up coverages in tough when they start running hurry up.

I'm playing on AA with sliders favoring the cpu for the most part and getting realistic games. Win some lose some. Sounds like you shouldn't be playing on Heisman. The main thing is QB accuracy needs lowered for both human and cpu.

Transfer portal going HAM

Also, I found my first cheese play in LSU’s playbook - Shock n Nod. Guaranteed your slot receiver will go completely uncovered if you pump fake to the TE.

ETA: not picking that play anymore. I thought I was just really good at setting the defense up but then I ran it on the 1st play of the game for the same result.
