Well, there's just no excuse for that. As you've said, it's been an issue for a while now. It pretty much renders the CPU's fast receivers worthless, and there's no need to worry about being burnt deep, making playcalling much easier.

i don't know what you would call "deep ball". i have seen the CPU throw hail marys at the end of game/half but never seen them do that in a normal situation. i have seen the CPU throw 20-25 yards from the LoS in '08, it wasn't as much as they did in last-gen NCAAs.

I have seen the CPU throw it 20+ yards once when i was playing Co-op with a friend that has never played a NCAA game before and he took the safty and blitz with him when he was supposed to be a deep half zone. so with the big hole deep, the CPU threw it to a wide open man, he was about 25 yards beyond the LoS, so to me thats deep?

To combat that, i wonder if we play as the MLB and jsut sit in that 8 yard area if they will force it or look elsewhere.....

Yesterdy i pressed the X on the 360 and the player somersaulted into the the end zone...previously i've only had them dive reaching out...I'm still figuring out how to high step...has anyone figure that one out yet.

its "B" on 360, but the animation is not there for the demo i don't think. it is in the final version according to the devs that are posting at ncaastrategies.com.

Great....too many times i've had open lane to the end zone and couldn't high step but just run it in.....so boring without the high stepping.

You're a Canes fan, all right.
