I just saw it. I've edited my earlier post.

Would anyone like to try and recreate that outcome for me? I'm on PS3. All I did was hurdle and this animation played out twice...I scored both times...

It depends. I saw someone say earlier that the real difference this year is that the CPU isn't afraid to call for those 3 and 4 yard run/pass plays. This leaves them with a lot less 3rd and long situations, and they never calls 4-Verts when they have less than ten yards to go - at least in my experience.

That said, I have seen them call it three or four times in about eight games when they have a 3rd and 11+ yards to go. Usually, I'll see a screen play or some kind of outs play. I'm pretty okay with it, in general. Though, I'd wish they'd eliminate the play for the CPU in general.

Heisman right now. Though, I played a few games earlier on AA defense and Heisman offense. Thinking that may be the way to go this year (for me at least).

It's bad when you're on defense. Yes Oregon runs their offense fast in real life but I wasn't playing Oregon i was playing Michigan. Play gets done, teams starting running to line up, still no play selection screen. Both teams lined up, play selection screen pops up and you have maybe 1-2 secs to pick a play before the ball is snapped. Yes hurry up speeds up the game, but most teams don't run no huddle and snap the ball in 5 secs like Oregon. And as soon as a play is over you should be able to select a new play, defenses in real life don't line up and wait 5 secs to look over to the coordinator while the offenses are already lined up ready to go.

I was OSU and 3 straight plays Michigan ran a no huddle and snapped the ball before I got to select a play. How are you supposed to stop the offense, which is already overpowering this year with the run game, when you can't even select a play?

This thread is sure turning into a lot more than just impressions, imo. Perhaps someone should start a "demo glitches" thread? Or just an "argue about the demo" thread?

That'ss the problem...I remember all of the things they said would be fixed, and 5 years later But I loved the demo. It was everything people have made it out to be. The hits are bigger, the atmosphere is better, and the gameplay... best I've ever seen.
