And lets start the shit talking early this year

"KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Jaybee1200 grew up a Tennessee fan and says he will always be a Vol. That allegiance has been tested like never before in recent days. Jaybee, 38, says he was attacked and beaten by a group of Tennessee football players, including sophomore defensive tackle Montori Hughes and senior receiver Denarius Moore, early last Friday morning at Bar Knoxville, a nightspot near campus. A bar-clearing brawl ensued, leading to one Tennessee player being dismissed, two others being suspended and an off-duty Knoxville Police Department officer being knocked unconscious and sent to the hospital. "If not for my friends jumping in, I would be dead or brain-dead," Jaybee told thewolfweb.com. "It was obvious that they weren't going to stop." Jaybee, both of his eyes blackened and his left one swollen shut, was taken to the hospital by one of his friends and treated. He said he had a baseball-sized knot on the back of his head "where six or seven football players were punching and kicking me." He broke his nose, suffered bruises on his chest and required nine stitches above his left eye. His forearms were bruised from "trying to fend off kicks and punches" while he lay on the ground. "One of them was holding my head up, and they were punching me in my face while I was on the ground and stomping on my chest," Jaybee said. "Finally, my friends were able to help get them off me, and the bouncers started dragging them outside." "

This game is so buggy it's ridiculous. It's like they didnt even test it.

7/14/2010 2:40:50 AM

Every new game is going to have bugs, lets get over it. play the game the way it supposed to be played haha

7/14/2010 7:56:26 AM

Haha, played 1 game in my dynasty so far, UCF. Play of the game was Brandon Bishop's 108-yard interception return for a TD.

Still haven't gotten use to the new recruiting(VERY different) and the new controls(somewhat different) but I'm figuring things out. I am really liking the new no huddle though, way better than previous installments. One thing I do like about the new recruiting is the comparing option where you compare your team's score to one of their other favorite team's score in that category, so instead of just giving the other team negative, you give your team positive as well. Not liking the random topic generator thing though.

Also, anyone know how to make it stop showing the play formation before the snap? It gets really annoying on defense.

7/14/2010 8:03:25 AM

I'll be starting up a PS3 league.

I'm thinking we do ACC/Big Ten

So far:

Me - Michigan
one of my friends - TBA

7/14/2010 8:11:22 AM

Sorry, boobs. People are 0-fer in trying to start a ps3 league, posse or even just a regular play group for any game on this site.

Come on over to the dark side.

Brandon Bishop had a 40+ yd fumble recovery for a TD against UCF for me.

Conclusion: Brandon Bishop will be a TO machine this year.


Also, (for the 4th time) I would like to play in the league.

With kind of attitude EA can just release shitty products all the time. If I spend $60 I expect a better product.

7/14/2010 9:40:55 AM

Hows about SEC/BIG TEN. I think that would give a even level of play

7/14/2010 9:43:59 AM

Do the people experiencing bugs have this patch yet?

looks like it will help

Quote :

" * Fixed an exploit where the QB could walk through the defense when the ball is snapped, with a guaranteed a gain of over 50 yards. * Tuned QB fumbling on scrambles, resolving an issue where the QB would fumble every time if hit past the line of scrimmage. * Improved deep zone coverage assignments, making it significantly more difficult to be beaten by the deep ball. In particular, deep zones have been improved against Streak routes. * Tuned QB throwing out of a sack. Previously, it was too easy for a QB to throw the ball while being tackled; this has been toned down to be more accurate. * Resolved an error with pursuit angles, which resulted in defenders over pursuing the ball carrier every play. The angle was fixed to be slightly more aggressive, creating a more accurate pursuit. * Tuned the read and react assignment for linebackers, especially outside linebackers, before the handoff. This will make it more difficult to run the ball outside the Tackles. * Fixed an issue with the CPU ball carrier being stuck in a forward lean animation. Also lowered the frequency of CPU ball carriers leaning. * Resolved an issue where AI players in man coverage assignment would swerve when covering particular vertical routes, causing them to be beat repeatedly. * Ball carriers will no longer go into a tightrope assignment when running along the sideline. This was causing the player’s speed to decrease to 70%. * Resolved an issue that was causing tackles to not matchup in online games, potentially causing a crash in online games. * Footsliding will no longer occur when the ball carrier has the ball in their left hand. * Tuned CPU screen passes so they will get rid of the ball faster, resulting in less sacks. * Resolved a crash that occurred if connection is lost before entering a game mode.

I want to join the 360 league

7/14/2010 10:30:10 AM

Even though my XBox has been messed up (I sent it off today), I was able to play a half yesterday before it cut off and the gameplay is quite a bit different. The difference in speed/acceleration is there and agility does appear to make a difference. And on kickoffs, you aren't full speed right away. There were other things I noticed to, but I didn't like the new play selection. I'm sure that is something you get adjusted to fairly quickly.

As for me being in the league, I'm in. Obviously I can't play until I get my XBox back (2-3 weeks). So it's either put me with a team and have me on autopilot for a short bit or just have me join after I get my XBox back. The demand doesn't seem to be as high this season so I'm sure there will still be a spot open in two weeks. I'm cool with whatever is easiest!

7/14/2010 12:54:51 PM

yeah speed has nothing to do with it this year all about ACC

7/14/2010 1:49:01 PM

I dont know whats wrong with me but im getting my ass kicked in just about every other game i play online. we need to get this dynasty together so i can practice with my team

7/14/2010 2:43:54 PM

"my team"

If you're good, you're good...if you suck, you suck...playing with "your team" isn't magically going to change that

7/14/2010 2:43:56 PM

lol i just want to know what im working with

7/14/2010 2:45:05 PM

The problem with the Big 12 is too many shitty teams...Baylor, Kansas, K-State, Colorado, and Iowa state are all terrible

The Big 10 only has 1 or 2 really bad teams in Indiana and Northwestern

People remain interested longer if they're playing as good teams, and we don't play enough seasons to really turn a program around.

So I propose playing as the big 10 + Notre Dame or + Nebraska...whoever got that team would schedule at least 4 user vs user games and then play the rest of their schedule themselves.




We could do hybrid 2 conference league like last year, but I think it would be better like this...let me know.

7/14/2010 3:07:30 PM

You could make the same case for Indiana, Minn, and Ill.


You atleast have a QB at Baylor and a RB at K-State

V I was just saying I would rather play with Baylor or K-State than those 3...

So let's make a vote with specific choices then, instead of ACC/SEC vs Something else.
Like ACC/SEC, Big 10, Big 12, or Big 10/12 hybrid

[Edited on July 14, 2010 at 3:29 PM. Reason : ..]

7/14/2010 3:24:31 PM

I said Indiana, and Minn and Ill aren't quite on that level

Regardless, if people would rather cherry pick six teams from two different conferences, thats fine too

Lets just decide on something relatively soon

7/14/2010 3:25:54 PM

no i dont want to do super conferences. but if we do i want ohio state

7/14/2010 3:31:04 PM

Thats not how it works

I hesitate to ask for Jaybee's input, because we will end up with a league of Tulsa, SMU, Army, Buffalo, Louisiana Tech, Florida Atlantic, Toledo, Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, ECU and New Mexico.

and we don't want a super league either.

We need to find a middle ground.

7/14/2010 3:36:10 PM

Big East?

7/14/2010 3:37:09 PM

Because that Connecticut-South Florida blood feud isn't going to settle itself

7/14/2010 3:41:55 PM

Pac 10 and wac

7/14/2010 3:45:51 PM

or pac 10/ acc. alot of middle to high level teams

7/14/2010 3:47:09 PM

Trying to keep them close geographically for recruiting purposes

7/14/2010 3:49:43 PM

Big 12/C-USA and every user has a Texas/Oklahoma school.

7/14/2010 4:25:54 PM

You fuck ups can't get anything right.

7/14/2010 4:30:46 PM

This is so exciting!!!

7/14/2010 4:35:49 PM

Ernie gets last pick

7/14/2010 4:37:23 PM

lol. Trying to figure out what's going on gives me a headache.

7/14/2010 4:38:01 PM

Look at last year's thread

Shit was organized

We are just wandering in the desert

7/14/2010 4:38:59 PM

That was the official league thread

and the one for this year will be similarly organized

We just have to figure out what we're doing first

7/14/2010 4:43:16 PM

How about you name the conference slave and that is what we do! Or we just do the same as
last year and move along and everyone will suck it up

7/14/2010 4:49:33 PM

I will decide by Friday

Give the people the weekend to mess around with their teams

and start up the league next week

7/14/2010 4:50:30 PM

Any conference aside from the SEC and ACC is fine with me, do the actual 2010 conferences, not made up ones, not 2011 ones, teams assigned randomly, you get what you get, the whole point is to see how good you are with what you got and if you can make them better. None of this pussy ass cherry picking bullshit. Winner gets a bicket of chicken.

[Edited on July 14, 2010 at 5:23 PM. Reason : D]

Can you guys seriously set up a thread for your Online dynasty.....reading pages of this shit just doesn't fly when I'm looking for impressions, reviews, etc.

7/14/2010 9:35:17 PM

Has anyone played as State at home. I'm just curious on if they had anything accurate with our entrance.

7/14/2010 9:37:10 PM

^ yes they do! Mr. and Ms. Wuf come out right when the crowd is at a fever pitch and then they dance around awkwardly for 7-8 minutes while the crowd dies down and then the players come out

7/14/2010 10:35:53 PM

^Nope, we have the basic default one, the wolf statue is not present.

7/14/2010 10:36:13 PM

whew. just traded in my rrod xbox on ebay. the new xbox will be here on Monday, hopefully Saturday though. I'm all set for this.

7/14/2010 11:49:49 PM

I'm down for playing this year... as long as I'm not shit ass Tennessee again

7/15/2010 8:48:00 AM

The Slave has Spoken

We are going to be using the Big 10 and the Pac 10, 6 teams from each

Top 6 teams from each conference are 92 90, 90, 89, 89, 87 vs 96, 92, 92, 90, 87, 86

Thats about as fair as it gets




I will do a random draw for teams and make the official thread later this evening




Here are the people I have as being in the dynasty

Let me know if you aren't listed and want to be in or vice versa

Slave Famous
Jaybee1200
Ernie
HaLo
EZ2Score21
Dynasty2004
