DYNASTY RULES

1) I will be the first truly cruel commissioner of this era. There's not an actual timetable that I have in mind, because I am human and realize that every situation isn't always the same. However, if you have a CPU game I expect that poo poo to be played by no longer than 72hrs(excluding extraordinary circumstances of course). I don't care if you sim plays to see that it's done. The rate at which we advance will be very arbitrary and to my preference.

2) Please communicate in the thread on a regular basis. It takes but a minute to post about your schedule or any problems you're having in the dynasty.

3) Don't play like a jerk: nano blitzes, 24/7 no-huddle, putting speed WRs at TE(w/o officially changing his position), or in memory of my dear friend Bio - changing a CB to QB, ya know, poo poo like that. I'm not gonna get more specific then that so use your brain. If you have to think twice about it then you probably shouldn't do it in the first place.

4) You can reset CPU games as much as necessary to get the win. Please, no rage quitting against other users, and let's not destroy a user team that isn't available to play for that week. Just do enough to get the win.


CONFERENCE SETUP
We will be using schools from both the BigTen and Pac12 conferences, but consolidating them all under the B1G due to loss of players. This means that anyone joining after the season has started will have to choose a B1G team this season, but can switch to a PAC team(if desired) during the next off-season. Looks like we're to the Wild West as everyone will be shooting for a spot in the B1G CG, and possibly the Rose Bowl.

Welcome to Season 5!

Everyone has a CPU game so let's try to advance by Tuesday night.

Michigan r2a

I didn't have a 105-0 insane blow-out game (holy crap dude, 3 punt return TDs?), but Michigan beats Colorado 63-10.

Dick Butt is back and better than ever, along with his defensive counterpart, "Big Steak" Taco Charlton. Dick Butt got 253 yards with 6 TD receptions off of just 13 catches, and Taco tied the single-game sack record with 6 sacks with a forced fumble along the way.

Glad to see Nebraska on the schedule - looking forward to trying out my team against you. Looks like I'm one of the lucky ones with 5 user games.

And just cause I love these insta-commits:

So I wasn't having a good day yesterday and decided to take it out on the CPU. Also, my freshman HB is pretty much Devin Hester so good luck with that. In my first attempt to play the game he returned the opening kickoff, and then another punt. I accidentally quit the game by pausing it one second before the game was actually finished, and didn't realize I wasn't at the expected menu. Anyway, in the follow up attempt he and my defense absolutely exploded.

So actually, I just found out I've been scheduled for an early morning conference call tomorrow that I'll have to take from home - so I think I will end up working the day from home.

If we could plan on trying to start as close to noon ET as possible, that'd be great. (assuming I'm able to do it - I'll let you know ahead of time of course if it falls through) That way I may still be able to head into the office after our game if I need to.

Sly, I'll definitely be available tomorrow. It's not a huge deal after all if it's close to noon for me, but if you could let me know ahead of time when you expect to be on that'd be great so I can make sure I keep my schedule open.

And please continue to give no fucks about my team JB. I don't know if I will ever be able to defeat you before EA shuts us down, but certainly taking me lightly gives me a better chance. :)

so if the kid has a good day I can play at noon, if not I am on kid duty when I get home. If you can bump it to 1330 Eastern I should be able to play no matter what.

We can definitely just plan on 1:30pm Eastern, but I've got my 360 logged in and it's right next to my computer desk so if you want to knock it out sooner, I should see the pop-up when you log in and can let you know if I'm available. As far as I can tell, I'll be free from noon onwards for sure.

#6 Michigan over #3 USC, 34-28.

Really tight game. We were going back and forth for the most part until Michigan came up with an interception in the second half. Michigan went up 31-21, USC fired right back and made it 31-28, but Michigan recovered the onsides kick and was able to hold onto the ball and close the final second of the game with a field goal to end it up by 6.

Luckily was able to figure out a way to keep Isaac's rushing attack to a minimum.

Dick Butt had 1 TD on 10 receptions and 154 yards, but Michigan's star player in the game was Deveon Smith who rushed for 127 yards and 3 TDs.

Dick Butt is so powerful. He made his TD catch on the next play.

GG Sly! Always a close one when we battle it out in this dynasty.

I can't wait until dick butt graduates. I can't stop him, despite keying and double teaming, same issue last time we played. Your run game was also silly. God I hate playing your Michigan team so much.

His Michigan team is annoying as piss, I was lucky to have gotten some early breaks in our match up last season. As always I like this OSU team, but fear the defense lacks that Hokie edge to make them truly scary.

No. Fucks. Given.

Nebraska makes SCe go night-night laying it on em' 111-7. If it wasn't for a CPU glitch where my CB went full retard with the ball in the air then I would've shut them out.

The best part about all of this is the time my backups are getting. I tend to take out my starters when they reach any of the following: 3 INTs, 3 Sacks, 200 rush yds/3 TDs, 300 pass yds/4 TDs, 200 rec yds or 3 TDs.

My freshman HB has now returned 5 punts in 3 games. This is the team Miami was meant to be.

Just woke up and I can't support this today as I leave for work in a few minutes. Are you getting hit by the blizzard? Maybe you'll have work cancelled? Otherwise if you can't play from between noon to 3 Eastern during the day I'll take a sim.
