Fwiw we revolted about the Heisman level vs CPUs when this dynasty started. I still don't recommend it as it makes the game infuriating.

I look forward to seeing what this respectably rated team is about and if they can be less sorry as poo poo on defense.

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. Prb gonna lose to Oklahoma lol

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.

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.

Dio, man I dunno dude. That one got away from you, down 14-31 at the half (following a late pick & score) I felt sure I was sunk. 3rd quarter included 2 turnovers and 21 Vols points scored which would be all I'd need. Tack on a 4th quarter bit of insurance and the final of 42-31 happened. I don't feel like I deserved that one, but I'll take it.

Vols are G2G, team is coming together now as the season goes on. My defensive numbers are slowly coming back to mediocre, and the offense has been solid if not quite as explosive as I'd like. These awesome WRs still can't consistently take the top off/the computer cheats and always plays deep guys on long pass routes.

Vols basically do everything you need to to lose a game. More turnovers than take aways, gave up huge rushing #s, no pressure on the QB. Had plenty of chances, couldn't get it done down to another #1 I go.
|

# ¿ May 3, 2015 21:03 |
Vols get it done against an Alabama squad that prb would have cleaned up shop on me had JCrowe been not on AP. 38-24 thanks to some solid passing & acceptable rushing totals. Defense is still largely a sieve just about every way, but they've gotten better at stiffening up in the RZ.

# ¿ May 14, 2015 16:13 |
I really at this point don't care, recruiting is a total after thought anyway so resetting this is just a way to give everyone a clean slate until we dominate the top 5 for every decent recruit again. I personally prefer we stick with what's running because everyone has been in the spectre of ruined seasons from sims, but I guess I'll float mostly with what we want to do. If we do start a new one, HC's need to start at Lvl 20. I don't want to slog through recruiting etc with no coach points again. For me the game gets actually interesting once its recruited players which is almost to where we are. Prefer we stick it out, will tag along for whatever at least to start.

I've been gone. I'll hit up the GroupMe and see if Mizzou surfaces and if that's a no go then I'll just knock it out. I probably won't join the other league if this one is going to keep trucking. I'm really not trying to add more of this game to my plate honestly. I barely have time for what we do already.
|
|
# ¿ May 19, 2015 16:44 |
Vols clean up on Mizzou a lot to a little. My two starting WRs are finally finding traction and racking up multi TD 100 yard games. Hurd was hurt, but other dudes picked up the slack. Let's see if I can hang around to sneak into the BCS title game with 2 losses.

# ¿ May 20, 2015 21:31 |
As of yet no sign of Vandy in the GroupMe.
|
|
# ¿ May 25, 2015 17:22 |
Vols over Vandy 42-21. It was tied 21-21 at the half, but the Vols nabbed momentum by getting a muffed punt recovery and scored 1 play later when it appeared Vandy would have about 1.5 mins to score before the half. I scored with the opening possession of the 2nd half, twice more in the 3rd quarter following INTs and then I bled out the clock in the 4th. My qb Rush had 2 huge 70+ yard runs in the game which also helped me put some pressure on Vandy. On my way to a 10-2 regular season hopefully to land myself in a BCS bowl title or otherwise.

# ¿ May 27, 2015 06:07 |
Aight, I'll def have it done by the weekend's conclusion. e: Vols roll time to see how it shakes out. I think if Kentucky had had its user (same with Mizzou) I'd have 2 more losses. I will hopefully skate my way into the BCS title game only to lose to one of you two again since I have never fared well in NCG rematches where I'd lost already. I personally don't get how you can generate the DL & WR stats Mizzou accumulated though. The Notorious ZSB fucked around with this message at 17:54 on May 29, 2015 |

John Brown posted:
On most of these plays (option/dive) it's less that you're spotty at tackling (because I think we all can be), its more that you play the safety so provided you can get beyond your first tackle you've now usually removed deep help from making a follow up play. Often those big plays happened because you took the safety from deep coverage and left open field behind you imo. High risk, high reward playing as the safety. Big reason why I really stick with the front 4 until I have to make a tackle beyond the LOS. I'd probably be a more effective player if I learned to switch and use my LBs once I read a run.

cletus42o posted:End of Season WRAP UP So hey this is hilarious right here, how is it possible I had the best overall defense in this league & the best pass D? Especially when I gave up enormous volumes of yards to the CPU over the first half of the season? I'm genuinely befuddled. I also find it hilarious that I lost to both #1 #4 and didn't end up behind them with more losses. I'm p comfortable with our divisions unless a lot of the group me folks aren't going to keep playing with us. I want to request that VT not be on our schedules since they finished #2 I want to see how well the CPU can do with them next year hahaha
