No I run a 2 qb system since Chastian is considered a impact player and alot better passer, while Bell is good in the option. Both are soph's so I will probably use both during my time at GSU.

Recruitment will be key though because my team honestly has no talent. LOL but luckly I have a few guys on the recruitment trail that were interested in us at the start.

I have a house rule I can only recruit 5 players that are one star above my school's rating. This excludes though players who were intitally interested in our program.

Week 1: vs Samford Recap
By Brock Silvers

What a great game it was between your Georgia State Panthers & The Samford Bulldogs. The Trent Miles era starts off on the right foot as The Panthers begin the season 1-0. Next week The Panthers will face The Chattanooga Mocs at The Georgia Dome. So be sure to come out and support the team. Attendance for this game was just over 12,000.

The offense was plagued by the turnover bug, something I suspect OC Matt Crock will work to fix this week. HB Gerald House rushed for 104 yards on 22 carries. QB Clay Chastain was able to move the ball through the air but made a few ill advised throws which resulted in 2 of the 3 interceptions. While QB Ronnie Bell was not very effective in the passing game but was able to do well with the running game as he rushed for 37 yards on just 6 carries.

If the offense can lower their turnover rate they should beable to get in the 20.0 points per game average. With the defense looking impressive that may be all they need for a few upset wins.

The defense was quite impressive in the season debut. Holding Samford to under 300 yards in total offense. LE Theo Agnew led the charge with 2 key sacks in the game along with a forced fumble.

The defense was able to cause 2 turnovers and keep the momentum from swinging in favor of The Samford Bulldogs. DC Jesse Minter had to be quite impressed with his defense.


In our next edition we will be covering the rest of The Sun Belt Conference. We also in a seperate edition we will cover the rest of The NCAA. Don't forget also to check out our weekly preview of the Panthers upcoming game.

Wyoming Dynasty Year 6







In the BIG12 Championship game, #1 Wyoming defeated #3 Texas 42-21 in one of the most unbelievable games of the season. There weren't any records broken, but it seemed like every drive something amazing happened for the Cowboys. In fact, the top 3 catches of the season, maybe even my entire dynasty, all happened in this 1 game.

QB #88 Frank Powell (Pictured) won player of the game with 6 total touchdowns, which certainly helped his chances of winning the Heisman Trophy. He threw 4 touchdown passes and rushed for 2. WR #10 Leon Robbins (Pictured) caught 2 TDs, WR #82 Mario Bradley (Pictured) caught 6 passes for 134 yards receiving and 1 TD. HB #37 Andy Bell had a solid game with 88 rushing yards.

Texas's QB Jamal Shelby had a great game with 300+ yards passing and 3 TDs, but the 3 interceptions he threw really hurt the Longhorns. WR Anthony Scruggs caught 4 passes for 174 yards and 2 TDs, and was really the only one who made any big plays for Texas.


I decided to break down each of the spectacular catches.. enjoy!

First.. there was the greatest interception I have ever seen.. by SS #35 Joe Jacobs. Those of you who have been following my dynasty may have gotten familiar with this guy by now, he is often featured in my pictures. This was his greatest play of the season..



The QB for Texas threw up a deep ball to the wide receiver running a streak but it was horribly overthrown. I was about to set my controller down to get a drink from my soda while I watch the in-between play cut-scenes when suddenly I witnessed the greatest interception of my entire dynasty. He actually fell into the wide receiver and rolled onto the ground after he caught it, which was pretty cool.

The next amazing catch was by WR #10 Leon Robbins. It was 3rd and goal at the 5 yard line.. I saw Robbin's lined up on the right against Texas's impact player cornerback. Having faith in my star receiver, I hot routed to a fade and hoped Robbin's could use his 6'4 200lb frame to win the jump ball. I wasn't disappointed.



Robbin's made a near superhuman leap and somehow came down with the pass. I was in shock, I had never seen a player jump so high. I think he actually got elevated a little by the cornerback's shoulder pushing him higher into the air.

The next one was by WR #81 Terrence Wright, who is used to making spectacular catches. This one was probably his best yet.



The pass was behind him but Wright managed to contort his body and reach back to catch the ball with 1 hand. It reminded me of Calvin Johnson's famous catch.

After the victory, #1 Wyoming (12-0) has punched a ticket to the BCS National Championship Game for the 2nd season in a row. But who would they be playing?

#2 North Carolina fell to #24 Clemson in overtime of the ACC championship game. #4 Michigan lost to #9 Wisconson in the BIG10 championship game. #15 San Diego State defeated #7 Utah State in the MWC championship game. #6 LSU defeated South Carolina in the SEC championship game.

In the end, it was the #5 (9-3) Florida Gators who moved up to the #2 spot and will be facing the heavily favored #1 (13-0) Wyoming Cowboys in the BCS National Championship. These 2 teams are somewhat familiar with each other, having faced twice throughout the dynasty, splitting the games 1 a piece. In year 2 Florida beat Wyoming in the Sugar Bowl, but Wyoming got their revenge the next season.

As for the Heisman Race..




Frank 'Boom Boom' Powell has won the Heisman Trophy!



What a close finish it was.. as he barely edged out San Diego State's QB. As I predicted, Notre Dame's QB was hurt by the lack of a conference championship game to play in.

The stage is set!



Stay tuned folks!

Head on over to the thread to submit a CAP for 2nd season recruiting

[heelphreak]

So I'm on the road at Virginia Tech, back and forth game, and VT is driving late in the 4th for the win. I'm up 36-35. About 1:00 minute to go, VT executes an excellent play fake and Logan Thomas rolls right and releases a perfect throw to the TE. the ball is tipped at the one and Trey Boston makes a diving interception in the end zone to seal the Carolina victory!

Or so it seems....

After the cutscene the announcer goes into some diatribe about the danger of throwing it out of your own endzone and then the scoreboard pops up.

Safety

Virginia Tech 37
Carolina 36

WHAT??????
