Comments on Schedule:Eek, 2-3 going into conference play would probably be considered a good season.. but i'm aiming for 6 wins.. somehow

This Dynasty will be played on AA with sliders favoring running the ball for both cpu/human +3 for ability and blocking... adjustments will be made on the fly and noted.. Also Ea flubbed the utep roster by not listing Jordan Palmer as a redshirt freshman.. so i'm not going to redshirt him again, thusly he gets to start.. poor him

Tucson, Az- The Pac-10 Conference was glad to see Carson Palmer leave, but today Arizona got a bit of a scare from his brother Jordan. Only a deflected pass in the final moments which was picked off in the endzone sealed it for Arizona. John Makovic could be heard screaming on the sidelines "COME ON, THIS IS FREAKING UTEP, NOT UCLA".. This is a step up for Utep, who generally gives up loads of points,yardage to higher flite conference teams. They clearly outplayed Arizona, but just couldn't pull it out in the end. Utep will clearly need to find some sort of running attack or the going will get tougher down the line.

Passing
Nic Costa(Ari) 9-20 209 yards 2 td's 2 int's
Jordan Palmer(Utep) 20-39 219 1 td 2 int

Rushing
C.Farmer(Ari) 9-40
H.Jackson(Utep)11-34 6 rec-49

Receiving
Andrae Thurman(Ari)6-146 2td(Player of game)
Jonas Crafts(Utep) 5-79

Defensive highlights
6 utep sacks kept costa on the run led by Dan Kerr with a pair

Scoring
1st
Arizona- 15 yard pass From costa to Thurman(0:51)(Gill Kick)
Utep- 49 Yard Field Goal by Robinson(4:21)

2nd

Ari-33 Yard FIeld Goal by Gill(5:21)

El Paso, Tx- A win is a win, but if this is indicitive of the season ahead of us, the Miner faithful will be having heart attacks weekly, after last weeks heartbreaking loss to Arizona, Utep clearly played a subpar game for most of 3 quarters, only a Late 86 yard Interception return for a Touchdown by Cedric Click saved the game for Utep. Coach Butts clearly has a long way to go to upgrade this team's talent. The murderous part of Utep's schedule is next.. with trips to San Diego state and Touchdown Jesus Notre Dame.

Scoring
1st
Sac State-30 Yard pass from 16 to 12(Pat good)
Sac State-40 Yard Fg

2nd
Utep- 11 Yard pass Palmer To Clevelandd (Robinson Kick)
Utep- 3 yard Run Cleveland(Robinson Kick)

3rd
Sac State-19 Yard pass from 16 to 17(pat good)

4th

Passing

Glad to finally see a UTEP dynasty here.

I'm surprised that you switched the Louisville game for Notre Dame. With a name like Ragone I would assume that you're a Cardinal fan.

Yeah, the Miners running attack is pretty suspect. Trey Darilek (whose name for some reason is pronounced Dar-se-leck) is a stud, and a few other of the offensive linemen are decent, but the runnings back aren't that great. Too bad they made Howard Jackson MUCH slower than he is in real life...

Too bad we couldn't have pulled out the U of A game. That would have been a huge win.

Good luck with the rest of the season. I'll definitly be following the dynasty!

Actually, i'm a graduate of Louisville.. i chose to switch it to Notre Dame to try and get a game on tv this season..(Well, even if it isn't on tv in game.. i know it would be broadcasted in real life due to Notre dame games every week on tv )

JeeberD · 08-09-2003, 02:46 PM

I need my Minerball fix!

Ragone · 08-11-2003, 04:00 PM
