Advanced, plenty of user games this week but down one with DJ out of the fold. At least we got 2 full seasons surpassing his entire resume prior to that.

User Games:
VT vs GT
NCSU vs FSU
UVA vs UNC
Miami vs WF (LESS THIS ONE)

Byes:
USCe

What my recruiting class last year was missing were ATH, which are finally way too good, and I've got 3 already and another 2 or 3 I'm likely to land. Already liking how this class is shaping up.

Just got home from a weekend trip to DC. I might be able to play this evening - but I'm not sure yet. If not, most nights this week will be fine. If I can play tonight I will log in around 10pm Eastern.

The Louisville Cardinals prepared well and put up a great fight, but eventually fell to 0-7 after losing to the #5 Golden Eagles 30-17.

BC improves to 7-0. Smh Louisville, my how the mighty have fallen.

Online now if you see this and can play soon.

I will hopefully be getting to sleep early tonight so I might be around for only an hour at most (obviously if we start a game I'll be around until it's done).

Had a great time - wedding + reception at the Mellon Auditorium. First time seeing a Hindu ceremony, it was amazing. Ended up at the rooftop bar at the W after the reception and I guess we got some kind of crazy bottle service where they have sparklers in the bottles as they bring them to you - seemed a bit excessive but definitely exciting when you're already drunk. Memory gets hazy at that point!

Usually my game against Dio is the de-facto ACC Atlantic title game but Wreckus's BC squad is absolutely in play for the ACC Atlantic title this year.

I should be online. Since we have two games, it'd be better if we could start earlier - at least, if we want to try to knock both out tonight.

Owww, GT falls to mighty VT 48-3.

VT overpowered me in every way. That made me feel like I'd never played the game before. :)

The Notorious ZSB

Hokies upend the Yellow Jackets 48-3. Neither team did much passing the ball, largely because VT dominated from their first offensive series on wards. But no shutouts for cletus who managed to get a FG on the board at the start of the 4th. Parsons and Edmunds tore it up, and the GT defense had no answer. GG dude, felt like your team was just outclassed. Also forgot that Coleman housed the opening KO of the 2nd half, which basically set me up to just run the ball forever with the clock chew on and GT still out did me on TOP by almost 5 minutes. Parsons took the first offensive play 82 yards to the house too on an option play.

I am close to the opinion that this is the finest VT squad I may have ever fielded. It's certainly the best team I've played with in this year's iteration.

e: Extra points for consideration.

No mercy until there is at least a 3 score differential in the 2nd half. But I do promise not to just blatantly run up the score, which mostly means my QB makes less than 10 pass attempts. The Capn would be proud.

That said it only takes 1 lovely week from the team/game from me to make all of this moot.

Oh don't worry I'm more than ready to rip apart your Oline on the way to many sacks. And that Mizzou team can't run like this one can. I've never had issues putting up respectable numbers against you man, all about the TO margin for our games. I've lost that the last few times. This secondary is LOCK DOWN though we'll see it remains the most daunting game on my schedule. Not to downplay the potential Sly and Texas have put together, minus FSU I got a decently tough Atlantic draw this season.

I'll always be at a disadvantage here with no coach XP, though I do really enjoy playing as GT. I'm getting much better at running the option plays. Just wish I had a chance to build the strongest team possible to see how much better I could run them with higher rated players. If we start up a new dynasty to coincide with the next season of college football, I'm pretty sure I'm going to roll with the GT playbook regardless of what team I get.

John Brown
Jul 10, 2009

I am doing pretty drat good in both the ACC and SEC without the coach XP. Obviously it helps that I've already won two championships with this team, but it really forces you to admit defeat on recruits a lot sooner. I actually kinda like it because it's both challenging and fair.

E: But I would def prefer to have the extra skills at the end of the day.

Well, you are a better player than I am, so I'm sure it's less of a disadvantage for you than me!
I'll say it doesn't detract from my fun at all, though. I chose GT specifically because I wanted a tough(er) challenge!

Mad respect for emulating IRL GT and trying to make it work. Much like Dio sticking with NCSU when stronger teams were available I appreciate the task of trying to topple the big dogs with a lesser group. Even though I'm only doing that in 1 dynasty haha.

I may also consider a restart if anyone is left, although I kinda like the idea of playing with our own guys indefinitely as we've never really gotten past S3 or 4 given the release schedule of the games previously.
