after a couple more games with this patch, here are some negs

- I saw the cpu make a catch near the sideline, it was clearly in bounds, guy tapped his feet 4 times pretty much and it was ruled INCOMPLETE

- The ball no longer spins on replays. smh. This is a problem on the PS3 version of NCAA, I dont understand it.

this game is improved tremendously post patch. Flats are better covered, the QB hangs on to the ball instead of just throwing it up for grabs, I've seen the QB scramble more often, the cpu defense doesn't sell out blitz on every 3rd down anymore, the clock runs/stops appropriately now, and the stats are better.

I was already enjoying the game pre-patch, minus the stats issue, but now, this game for me is golden.

Well done.

They compressed the graphics more to get longer replays - that's why the ball doesn't spin. Given the number of times a kickoff or long run replay gets cut short, that's a trade I'll gladly make.

For that matter, I haven't seen a replay cut off just before a TD post patch...did they fix that too?

THIS. You actualy have to worry about mobile QB's somewhat. They will run if no one is open. I posted in the gripe thread how they'll run like a foot and slide no matter if its a loss or not.

Glad to hear about the flats coverage being improved. Hate when you have a guy 3rd long & they throw to flats knowing they can get a 1st down. Can't wait till the 360 patch drops.
