Because when was the last time you saw a patch that listed issues to be corrected, then never be corrected within that patch? Instead, it fixes another issue - or breaks it.

There's no harm in asking; the fact we are on our 4th (?) patch now should breed some questions; whether they be of hope or skepticism .

How do you not see the glitch!?! Put it on heisman or all american and throw 4 verticals.

In the way that Bethesda has admitted that they can't fix the DLC issue with Skyrim for the PS3, Tiburon needs to admit that they can't fix the safety play for NCAA football. What appears to be an easy fix from the outside looking in, is obviously not doable after 4 patches.

What was a good idea in theory when it when it was introduced-Gameplan- has been an albatross around this series neck for the last few years.

No huddle works much better now but fatigue is more severe. Only had 3 defensive starts play consistently in the 4th quarter going to have to adjust substitution sliders.

Yep, they should at least issue a statement. I've bought every EA sports college game back to Bill Walsh and many other EA games. Probably a few thousand $ or more on EA games in my life. Yes, I know, people are going to say EA owes you nothing. I'll counter that by saying, thats not good business. In fact, if they give us an answer either way, it would go a long way in ensuring that I buy 2014. As it stands, they are coming accross very lazy and indifferent with all the broken sliders in this game and no response to this issue. Noone in good conscience who sees the DB glitch should support EA in the future without a response.

The fix seems simple....Every other AI gameplan stays on balanced, keep this balanced or disable gameplan altogether. If its not that simple, let us know. As it stands, I beleive that if I was given an hour with the code and shown where gameplanning was in this code, I could fix the issue. Thats what is so frustrating, when you identify the issue for someone and propose a solution, they should atleast reply. How would you feel if you are at work and diagnose an issue and come up with what seems to be an easy fix to help your company and its employees and management doesn't even acknowledge anything.

I will check for this once I fire my game up again. If this is true then I don't see it as a bad thing. Maybe now we can set up our Subs to get more realistic DL and RB rotations.

I played a game with Utah vs Stanford and it really felt like the CPU was in Robo QB mode. I thought it was interesting that an earlier post read that the QBs seemed less accurate but I'm seeing the exact opposite. The CPU did not have one overthrow the whole game. The only incompletions were pass deflections or throwaways. This was on AA. In the first quarter the CPU QBA was at 0. I raised it to 50 in the second quarter, and then to 100 in the 2nd half. The CPU was incredibly accurate regardless of the QBA setting. Will test again in the morning.

I really wouldn't mind this if it happened randomly 2-3 times a game because you do see safeties bite on the underneath route on occasion in real life, especially if they are peeking hard into the backfield, but in this game the glitch is very predictable so we know when it's going to happen every time.

The fact that it's happening is not a problem for me. The timing of it and the fact that it's happening so often is what is killing the experience.

...I really think some sliders are more effective, while others have no effect as the past (QB Accuracy is the biggest no effect culprit.) For example i think the pass rush and rush defense slider has really become effective. I know i've seen bad angles a few times with the run defense slider at 0. Note that i do not have a big sample size at all. Only 2 games played, very different teams each time (WSU @ Oregon, Rutgers @ Temple).
