Vols stomp Northwestern 62-10, despite a 1st quarter that saw me turn the ball over 4 times. I'm going to struggle against anyone with a real defense. I also watched the CPU for the first time ever sit itself into a delay of game. Lined up and just sat there till it ticked down to 0.

Hey Nick, Joe, Weenis, or JCrowe!

We're having a glitch with the CPU-controlled Oregon team in our B1G/PAC-12 league and could use some assistance. We'd like one of you to join the league as Oregon, switch their playbook back to Oregon under the "Coach Philosophy" page, and then quit the dynasty. The custom playbook they've been using has caused some serious glitches that has resulted in a simmed loss for Dio :(

Additionally, feel free to join us as another team in the B1G if you'd like, but Oregon would be off limits this season as they were only scheduled for one user game (which has already passed).

Could one of you help us out with this? If so I can shoot you an invite to that league.

You're Auburn, I'm LSU.

I'm going to give our defenses a pass in this game, we each had a player that went crazy on offense - and there weren't any mistakes by either offense. Really fun shoot-out.

Fournette rushed for 205 yards (long of 47) with 4 TD, and another TD through the air. Only other LSU TD was a KR TD near the end of the first half by WR Dural.

GG!

After looking at the stats on the website, I agree. Never been in such an insane shootout in internet football that wasn't full of turnovers. Your HB was unstopppable, and my receivers got separation all night long.





Looking forward to rematches in the other dynasties.

I'll try and be on at 9 ET, if I'm not on by 915 ET assume I got tied up and let's aim for the weekend.

e: Vols over Gators 38-35. I scored first and took a 2 TD lead into the half thanks to consecutive drive INTs to end the Gators half, but stalled badly after the half letting the game get tied going into the 4th which started with a half opening KO return for a TD. Vols scored quickly in the 4th, then the Gators answered right back leaving me with about 3 minutes left. I drained all of that time and kicked a FG after an offsides to stop the clock with 6 seconds left. The Gators miraculously completed a pass that would have put them in FG range, but time expired on the play. I managed the poo poo out of that clock to make sure I got the W.

Trounce is a bit too strong, I barely held on and basically felt I had to play the clock to get the W. I could have scored with around 1 minute left and purposely took TFL to run the clock and force the use of your TOs. I wasn't really able to stop you in the 2nd half, if you'd been able to stop me one 1st down sooner I'm certain you would have won.

I kind of realized when you got possession with about 3 minutes left that you were going to win with a FG. I tried to stop you, but your play calling was pretty great that game on offense.

We are still waiting on one last user game, but that should be happening tonight or tomorrow. I'll post here when we've updated. So far the pace has been alright, but obviously the thread has been a little dead since a lot of the talking is going on in GroupMe. If you guys don't want to bother with the app, you can access it from the web. It is just like IRC for the most part. I'd like if we can move a little quicker than a weekly advance, but hey, I'm thrilled we have so many active users and user games!

Looks like you didn't get it in, think we might be advancing tomorrow morning. Last user game is done now.

edit - Also, if anyone is crazy like me and likes to join a ton of dynasties, there's a new one starting over with the GroupMe guys (+ me and AF). At least one spot open, though you'd have to pick a Big10 team (not Purdue) or an American team (not UCF). Starting as coordinators. Season hasn't begun yet, but you'd have to sign up at GroupMe to take part. Let me know if anyone is interested.

As long as you don't have any restarts, I don't think it matters so much against the CPU. Just ask though, I don't know for sure! Worst case you might get told to tone it down?
