BamaGrad03 0 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 How funny is this...AU finishes 3rd in the BCS in my first season of NCAA 2005. LSU finished the season with one loss (to Auburn) and finished 1st in the BCS. But couldnt even compete for their conference title because AU won the west. AU went on to beat South Carolina and have to play boston college in Sugar. For the record, had I beaten LSU, AU would have gone to the big dance...hahaha. I thought the BCS tweaks were supposed to keep this kinda thing from happening again...it even happens in VIDEOGAMES! Playoff Playoff Playoff Playoff Playoff Playoff!

bammanmr 0 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Ha. A few years into my dynasty, a #4 ranked FSU got a rose bowl bid against #1 mich. They won, so there was a mnc with a 9-3 record. 5 teams had a better record than the noles after the bowl games. Go figure. Something funny I saw on the SI page. Towards the end of the dynasty, I took a job a meechigen and then simed 4-5 seasons. Just before the conf. championship games in 2009 I checked SI and the cover was a bama player hitting a cinncinatti player with the headline "Tide and Bearcats tangle for SEC crown, again." I checked the conf. standings and cinn. was still in C-USA, but SI (solidifying their hold on misinformation) had em' playing for the SEC title, again. Too strange. BTW, create-a-team is a little better now, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaGrad03 0 Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 Yeah on the cover of SI for the awards at the end of the year it said "Alabama kicker wins award for best offensive lineman in the country" And there was a picture of Wesley Britt...hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioWryn 0 Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 "Auburn Senior Rosegreen wins Defensive Player of Year Award" I think that's my favorite SI headline from that game. Also, if you play a franchise over again from 2004, check out your end-of-year recruiting class. I got a high school kid out of Kansas, lowly-touted, named Dwayne Wise, who was an outfielder for the Braves in 2004. Funny stuff. Wise set the NCAA career INT record by the time he was through. Just a video game.. right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanTiger 20,560 Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I went 12-1 with Auburn in my 2005 season, losing only to LSU 17-14 on a last second TD. It didn't keep me out of the SEC title game though as I beat UGA for the second time to win the title. There were no undefeated teams so the regular season ended with Auburn, Oklahoma, USC and Miami all with one loss each. And the BCS title game bids went to..... #1 Auburn and #2 Oklahoma I beat Oklahoma 33-17 in the Orange Bowl to win the national championship. Carnell won the Heisman and rushed for 1300 yds. Ronnie rushed for over 1000 yds Obomanu had over 1000 yds receiving and left early for the NFL. The AU defense only gave up an average of 165 yds of total offense for the year. No one scored over 20 on us the entire year (UGA-1st game). Three others scored 17 (LSU, UT, and Oklahoma). I had 4 shutouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aufan175 13 Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I got the game the day it came out and won 3 straight national championships. Carnell broke almost every record possible because I wouldnt sub and he got like a million carries. I got bored so I made a dynasty with Alabama State and UAB. If you wont more of a challenge change the skill level to All-American or Heisman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I either need to bump to Heisman or tick the sliders up a little in AA. First, I'll see how I do without my entire backfield and my #1 receiver and CB.

BamaGrad03 0 Posted March 25, 2005 Author Share Posted March 25, 2005 Id just bump the sliders up. On heisman...the pretty much eliminate the running game for the human players...its not fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthLink02 8 Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Is it just me or does everyone else always have South Carolina doing really well in their NCAA 2005 games? It was odd....I was UGA, AU, and UF....and everytime I would play them...they would be in the Top 10 Talk about unrealistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockthecasbah6 0 Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I remember one college football game on PS One that I had (don't remember the year, but Ricky Williams was on the cover). After a few seasons, Miami-Ohio was a permanent fixture in the top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
