Pros: it's about 90% the same as the NCAA 2001 game in terms of controls and how everything feels. You can be successful with just running the same core stuff from that game and can ignore some of the newer/more technical stuff that you'd have to slog through getting right first. Looking at the controls, some of the button descriptions don't make enough sense/don't have enough context to wtf they do. So being able to just jump in and ignore them was good.
Team ratings didn't seem to matter as much as the "star attributes" and just getting the ball into those players hands. Then again I played Stanford, WSU, Beavlet, and Minnesota.
Cons: RPO controls suck and that's like half the default Washington playbook. Jonah Coleman is by far the best player and there's just a few inside zone plays for him and the AI wants Rogers to let it rip.
Anyone who has played games like Alan Wake and Resident Evil 4RE/Village with ray tracing on are not going to think this game's graphics are any good. The crowds in the stadium looks pretty bad.

EA is gay

After 2 seasons in dynasty where I rage clicked/mashed through all of the weekly recruiting tasks just to get to the games, I think I'm done with this already.
Second season was the National Championship victory where I drew (and this is why this game is so fucking stupid):
Kansas State →Liberty → Florida → Oregon in the title game where even though I won, Dante Moore was an absolute God.
Ryan Otton threatened to transfer both seasons even though he was the absolute star and most productive player in my offense.
Back to games where people actually had to try to get great reviews, like Conscript.

I’m 10 years in.. Won 4 NC’s w/ UW and aTm w/ stops @ Tejas and TD Jesus. Btw recruiting to ND is fuck all, I recommend never coaching job there. My take, recruiting is broke as shit all together and style of play is way to important of a factor. Guys leave if you dip under 250 yds avg passing for the season.
Oregon has had the #1 or #2 ranked classes in all but one of those 10 years in my dynasty. Despite losing records in 4 and never winning a natty. Oh and the last patch/update was exclusive to Oregon’s uniforms update and stadium. Well 90% of it, no gameplay or bug fixes, despite a ton. If the AI wants to score your not stopping it -
I wouldn’t want to play a greased up AI
I just wouldn’t

Yeah I didn't bother to learn recruiting properly, at least how you should be allocating your time, and soon enough every week 1-2 players are verballing to WSU, Colorado State, obviously Oregon/SC etc and then it's just a tedious thing of going and getting new propspect to replace those positions and doing the same shit to get their attention.
Is there no offline mode to just play through a season with the stock rosters and see hmif you can get it hr cfp? You lose Rogers and Coleman after the first season and then I barely care anymore.

sounds like deboner’s kind of recruiting

When you start it you choose which aspects your coach is great at and I chose 'scheming' and 'culture' or some shit and obviously didn't choose recruiting so yes it was exactly like a deboner campaign.
