NCAA SEC NERDCITY SEASON 3



Season 1:
SEC Champs: UGA (over Arky)
NCG Champs: UGA (over CPU Iowa)

Season 2:
SEC Champs: SCar (over CPU Arky)
NCG Champs: SCar (over UGA)

I am the commissioner for a full season for the first time now. Rest easy knowing the fate of your team rests in my soft soft hands.

:siren: :siren: This dynasty is known as the DRAMA-FREE DYNASTY :siren: :siren:

We have 10, that's right, 10 users in this dynasty. SEC PARTY! We actually have 5 goons and 5 players who are simply members of the GroupMe chatroom (https://groupme.com/join_group/9207880/xJ59te). The GroupMe chatroom is a really nice way to schedule games, since you can get their app on your phone and rather than making a bunch of tiny posts here on the forums and maybe even checking "Who's Online" (I can't be the only weirdo who does that when looking for my opponent), just party like it's mIRC. If you get the app, you can customize how you get notifications, so don't freak out and uninstall it if right away you feel like you're getting swamped with junk notifications. I use the website more than the app, though.

SEC Eastside

#3 South Carolina - John Brown (GT: True Cryme)

#5 Georgia - Nick / GroupMe (GT: Venom173)

#7 Florida - Diodeous (GT: BenedictWong) former commish and still king

#9 Tennessee - The Notorious ZSB (GT: JDMTyte)

#18 Mizzou - WaytogoIdaho / GroupMe (GT: ucieaters33)

Kentucky - CPU / Available
Vanderbilt - CPU / Available

SEC Westside

#1 Alabama - Crowe / GroupMe (GT: JCrowe19)

#2 LSU - cletus42o (GT: cletus42o)

#16 Arkansas - Tyler / GroupMe (GT: WeenisWrinkle04)

#23 Auburn - Texas A. Wreckus (GT: QuikDrawQuincy) plz join groupme or post more

Texas A&M - Eric / GroupMe (GT: xYUNGxMOUNTx) new to this season

Ole Miss - CPU / Available
Miss St - CPU / Available

above rankings are pre-season

Keeping with the same rules, I don't think any of us really need to see these, and it's highly doubtful at this point that a new goon is going to join, but here they are with some slight modifications:

Rules
1) We don't care about CPU games, just get them done ASAP. Don't take a chance with a sim against a ranked CPU opponent, it could hurt all of us! You can restart as many times as you need to, but please don't do this just to pad stats / win awards.

2) Difficulty: All American vs CPU, All American vs Users / 6 Minute Quarters / No Recruiting Boosters / Ice the Kicker is On / Homefield Advantage is On / Coaches Start at Level 1

3) You must create a coach for this dynasty.

4) No FCS games get on your schedules. With 10 user teams, schedule requests aren't something I'll be looking to ask about, but don't hesitate to message me when it's getting close to the pre-season if you have special requests.

5) If someone is playing like a dick against you, bring it up. If it's becoming a pattern where any particular user is getting complaints, we will handle it and hopefully not lose a player due to it.

We'll be advancing to week 1 tonight.

#3 South Carolina (JB) @ #15 Georgia (Nick / GroupMe)

Unfortunately had two users who took sims, and both lost. Sims are dangerous!

JB, I know you said you were going out of town soon. I'll be out of town next weekend. If Nick can't play before you have to leave, I can put him on AP, or we can see if he'd definitely be able to play right away when you get back. Seems like he's been extra busy lately. Might be SPRING BREAK!!!

I have determined they are not any less sorry on defense despite the increase ratings across the board. Got a boss senior MLB again though, but we still can't stop a wet rag of piss.

We play next week, hopefully I can avenge that loss from last year. I just hope you don't take Fournette out for another full season!

#2 LSU over #4 Miami, 56-6. Holgorsen at OC is making a huge difference already. Just had one offensive mistake early on, but other than that, it was total destruction.

I guess we'll see maybe the computer was just loving with me, but chances are high you should steam roll me. I'll have to hope for a scoring explosion on my part to get ahead and try to stay ahead.

e: THERE WAS DEFENSE AGAINST OKLAHOMA. Also I tried stat padding and chucked like 3 ints in the final 2 minutes ooops.

Probably sometime this weekend, but I'm not sure exactly when. Sunday mornings are usually a safe bet.

e: Vols choke in the 4th throwing 3 picks one for 6 to lose 54-36 when it was 28-27 with a minute left in the 3rd. Defense was as expected trash, and I just pressed too hard at the end. Had a chance but cletus snuffed it out with a perfect passing day.

Yeah, we were going back and forth for most of the game, and when you went up by 1 by getting a TD when I had to settle for those FGs, I was worried my offense wasn't going to come back. After the picks though, I wasn't going to risk an incompletion so it was just a matter of holding onto the ball and not fumbling.

Hurd is a beast though. I felt like he was breaking every first tackle attempt I was making - same with your QB when he would run it.

Tenn crushes LSU, 70-49. It became a shoot-out really early on, and then Fournette went out injured (not sure on what play even, didn't see a notice until I heard them mention it).
So thanks for not playing conservatively. :)

That game was like a firestorm, and that's ulimately what did me in this game. I burned you on deep passes repeatedly in that game, but was got picked 3 times on deep passes this game. It was literally the difference.

#8 Tennessee (ZSB) @ #2 Florida (Dio)

Dio survived the sim against Mizzou and jumped to #2 because of it.

Everyone else has a CPU game. UGA is on an extended leave of absence right now so he's on AP indefinitely. Hopefully won't be for too long.

Note: I go out of town Thurs-Sun this week for my annual poker weekend. So it's unlikely we will even be able to advance until Monday - that means ZSB and Dio have a while to schedule their game.

You know what this means Dio, time for you to grasp victory then watch as I take it from you at the end! Alternatively my team will not score enough and lose in a shoot out. Have to see when we can fit it in because I've got a bachelor party this weekend that's going to eat my weekend.

Okay, we're waiting on y'all now, so if you can knock it out tomorrow that'd be great.

Also, you have a game against CPU Oregon the following week. I think you said you were going out of town Thursday? I'll be around to advance us after y'all play, in case you want to try to play that game too before you leave. (though I know you've got games to play all around right now, so no biggie)
