So I'm playing for the first time a dynasty mode game against USC. USC's first offensive play of the game resulted in this:

Then, things kinda stalled out for me and it ended up being a back and forth game. Late in the 4th I ended up failing a 4th down conversion and turning the ball back to USC. With just over a minute to go with USC driving and up by only 1 point.. This happened:

USC eventually scored (poor defense on my part), but didn't convert the 2pt conversion, thus giving me the win.
 


Cooper's hips look really stiff. Not sure he translates to the next level.
 

Just finished my first season ... #2 Minnesota beat #1 Wisconsin at TCF Bank Stadium 20-17, and then they met again in the Big Ten Championship with #1 Minnesota prevailing over the #10 Badgers 27-0. Came back from down 20-3 in the BCS Championship to beat A&M 30-27.
 

As the great Conway Twitty said, "It's only make believe." I just wrapped up a season in which the Gophers won the Rose Bowl over Stanford, but it took two Tom Parish come-from-behind victories over the Badgers to make it happen. If that really happens, I'll eat my hat.
 



Would it kill James Manuel to throw a block?

Ok, I got it. I looked at the roster and saw that. Unfortunately that was Jew Jew. The developers didn't take the time to add/subtract any players with any sort of circumstances.. So I'm missing Beal and Royston for one, and have Bryant Allen and Jew Jew Party instead. So, what I've done was change Jew Jew to Anthony Jacobs (forgot to switch his number.. doing that right now) and let the CPU autoname Allen.

Bad news Formo, the NCAA announced that you forfeited all your victories for playing an ineligible player and that you have been suspended for two years. Tough break guy!
 

I'm waiting to find a good roster before I start my dynasty. I want it as close to right as possible for my obsessive-compulsive spreadsheet.

Like I said in another thread.. if you have PS3, luvtotha9s is the best roster out there. He does equipment along with names and numbers. The down side is he had to start from scratch the night of release instead of using the TeamBuilder, he has to do it the old fashioned way.

I wanted do wait as well.. but I just couldn't.. So I started a dynasty with just some of Minnesota's players done by myself so I could get the hang of playing it (vs. Road to Glory mode). When Luv is done with his rosters, I'll start anew.

I went and got the Operation Sports community rosters, I have Xbox360. I beat USC 31-24 last night. Gray got hurt in the 1st quarter and is out for 2 weeks. Tom Parish came in and led the team to a come from behind win. Lamonte ran for 151 yards too, that helped! I did give up a punt return for TD though, special teams needs some work. I hope to run up the score on NMSU tonight.
 



A few games in and Q is an injury machine. He's gotten hurt in every game he's played. I almost want to start the season over and adjust the roster I am using. If real life is anything like the games I've played so far, it will be frustrating to watch this year. 4-1 with a loss to Michigan, but it feels like 1-4.
