I get this quite a bit too. I can't understand after a couple patches, my freezing problems got worse? Things weren't so bad after the first (or was it second) patch. Now I'm happy if the game doesn't freeze if I didn't skip a cut scene.

Speak of the devil, just had it freeze on play of the game. I've never had any freezing problems with any other games on my 360 that are close to this bad.

Where does it happen exactly? It usually happens during cut scenes in a game. For example: after completing a pass the game, (rather annoyingly I might add), tends to run a small cut scene, i.e. the ESPN logo or a silver football, etc. and then show a replay of the pass. The majority of my freezes have happened here. I have found that by pausing the game before the cut scene/replay begins or just after it begins I can skip the replay entirely; however, it is still a little annoying to pause and un-pause the game after nearly every play. The most upsetting freeze occurred in a different place though: at the end of my SEC Championship Game in my freshman season. The camera still pans around the stadium, but the players are frozen and no sound plays. The Xbox home button still works, but nothing else. This is after the player of the game is called and immediately after my quarterback's game stats screen came up and I pressed A to close it. It was particularly upsetting because I had completed my first 10 passes in a row, thrown only 1 interception, led LSU 35-23 going into the 4th quarter, and had the ball with 1:55 left to go with the score 35-30. After being stuffed on the ground twice, I ran a play action pass on 3rd and 4, only to be sacked before I could fake the handoff. LSU's ball with :55 seconds left and no time outs. They score, the PAT was blocked, and the ensuing kickoff was ran back between the 20 and 30 yard line. With :08 seconds left, I make a perfect pass down the middle to a wide receiver that broke free after a pump fake on a Hail Mary play, and he crosses the goal line as time runs out. Final score: UGA 41, LSU 36. Then the game freezes. Unbelievably frustrating.....
This is the game mode that I've played so far, so I can't say whether it freezes elsewhere; however, it does seem that most people either have more trouble with Dynasty than Road to Glory, or just don't play Road to Glory, so I thought I would document my troubles to show the extent of the issue.

Played the same team/game time and it has froze at the exact same spot both times. Right after I kick the ball off to them at halftime it goes to a replay screen or highlights and freezes right away every time iv'e tried to play the game.

Exactly this just happened to me, except it was an offline team builder dynasty. But it was exactly right after halftime

Where does it happen exactly? It does not freeze, it just loads and loads and loads and never goes to the game. You then about 10 minutes later here it say at the end of the first qtr there is no score here, and keeps loading

This is vs a human player in the conference championship week

Online/Offline: (I am connected to the internet while playing my Offline Dynasty)
Mode: Offline Dynasty
Where does it happen exactly?: Usually during halftime transition screens (hard freeze requiring total system reboot)

Note #1: Occurs roughly once every 10 games. (I have begun my 7th dynasty season, so this is a regular occurence)
Note #2: I do not use custom playbooks, if that matters
Note #3: Please implement an in-game save feature in future version to at least mitigate this annoyance.

Where does it happen exactly? Game freezes during the end of quarter cut scene with the big ESPN logo. Happens at then end of the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd quarters about once every 4-5 games.
