Not saying I've seen the CPU go deep a lot, just the opposite, but I'm wondering just how much of this issue isn't due to our playcalling. I know for example that there's a lot of defensive plays (and offensive plays, for that matter) that I haven't really called in years because they never worked on, say, NCAA 99, 00, 01 & 02 - so I've ignored them ever since. It's at least possible that part of the reason we're not seeing a lot of deep balls from the CPU is because we're subconsciously defending against it with every defensive play we call. Just a thought.

That's a good thought, but I've been doing alot of cover ones, and man coverage with no safety help - still few if any passes go more than 20 yards in the air downfield.

Good thought also, but I've sat in the middle zone with Laurenitis (sp?) on the demo, and the CPU will still throw into the middle.

I love the demo, but this would be my biggest fix needed. More than entrances or anything else, because it takes away a big part of the game. I can call a much more aggressive game, because I only risk giving up first downs, not deep TDs. You would think EA would want the deep ball in the game if they are putting an emphasis on "wide open gameplay." If the CPU would threaten deep, it would force me into soft coverages at times, and that would open up the CPU ground game. Instead, most of us play pretty tight to the LOS, because there is little threat of someone getting behind you.

Unfortunately, as someone mentioned earlier, it's been this way for a couple of years.

Is there any way to adjust for this in the sliders?
