NCAA Football 10 Blog: The Rebirth of the Flexbone Offense

[SHO]

When Urban Meyer went to Florida NCAA completely focused on revamping that PB and it was cool, but when Paul Johnson get's a similar upgrade it's not a priority? I'm a little shocked at the flexbone hate.

it's because the shotgun is "hot" and flexbone is "not".

I'm glad they updated the flexbone. I might try to play a dynasty with either Army/Navy/Air Force now. I think Army is the only one I've never played with, so I might go with them.

here was a post made by Ben Haumiller over at NCAAStrategies.com about this blog.

Hey Everyone, To answer a couple of the questions that have come up, there were a couple of reasons why we did offense only for the videos. The main reason is that we wanted to focus on the actual movement of the play, which you can see best when the defense isn't on the field. This caused some obvious things that you won't see in normal game situations (i.e. O-Line not firing off the line, pulling guard staying behind the line of scrimmage). Another reason was that the capture equipment we had available at the time skips a bunch of frames on the playback when recording, which makes it extremely difficult to capture anything gameplay since you are pretty much playing blind. This isn't a situation where we were trying to mask anything; we were just trying to give some supporting visuals for the new formations/plays. Also, while this was the focus of the post, there were a lot of other updates made, but we wanted to focus this post on an overhaul to a specific offensive style.

As the only Navy Football fan on these boards, and the only guy who uses them exclusively in any league I am in, I can only say one thing:

YYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sweet. It looks great. The info keeps making ncaa 10 look better and better. I can't wait to get it in 2 months.

Showing this with no defense is pointless.

who said it was a major priority? Are they just supposed to not update stuff because its considered more minor compared to other features people want? I mean give me a break.
