CPU Using No Huddle Offense Too Much

[ProximMaximus]

I've only played two games, but in both of them the CPU (Texas A&M and Auburn) used the no huddle offense more than 70% of the time. I find this very unrealistic, and it makes it damn near impossible to make your defensive play call in time. I understand the strategy of doing it in real life, but it seems a bit overused in the game.

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a way to reduce the amount of time the CPU uses the no huddle?

I agree with you on this 100%.

I was playing Rutgers vs Duke and both teams ran 80%-90% of their plays in no-huddle. I've been looking for teams that don't run no-huddles just to play the game.

This is another thing that need to be toned down or be able to shut off.

This is what college offenses do, they run no huddle so the defense can't make big assignment oriented changes. I don't get it people want realism then when they get it, it's too real for them. If you don't want them to run no huddle force an incomplete pass, it's not hard it's strategy.

awesome how they replicate that.

it's funny because i've only played NE vs NE games, and 1 NE vs IA game. i haven't seen the no huddle ran once. in fact i kind of forgot about it.

ea's implementation of this is sweet!

yea, this is kind of how the no huddle is run in real life.

My complaint with it is that every team runs it like Mizzou. The only difference between no huddle teams is some look to the sideline after every play while other don't. EA needs to fix the issue of where the CPU snaps the ball as soon as they get lined up. The problem has been in the game for a long while now and hurts both the no huddle and all other styles of offense. Everybody should take at least 5 seconds at the line before snapping the ball unless its a team like Mizzou.

TAMU ran the second highest number of offensive plays in cfb in 2009 (1053 snaps in 13 games), while AU was tied for 21st (914 in 13 games).

Sounds realistic to me. If you saw OU with Bradford, i dont think Bradford even knew what a huddle was.
