Another close game with Miami losing to Florida in the rain. I would really recommend the OS/Playmaker sliders as I'm seeing a lot of realistic things happen in each game. Closely ranked teams have close games, but ranked teams will blow out a poor FCS team.

Some little things don't bother me, but I can't tell you how great it is to see all the uniforms looking filthy before even halftime in the rain. Florida's white jerseys ranged from grey to brown. Love it.

I passed on last years game, so I'm loving the bottom line as it's new for me. There's also a lot more stat windows in Dynasty mode along with the pop up banners and it all adds to the immersion. I also really like how if you play other games each week the score updates match every time, so if Michigan beats East Michigan 27 - 17 in the first game you play, then they will in every other. Also if you're playing a game that kicks off at the same time as your dynasty team it won't show updates for it.

Question, how come the commentators don't say the names with the rosters? Do they only say them in dynasty? In play now, I don't seem to hear them?

so far, really like the running. i have to earn things. sometimes i get stuffed multiple plays and then break a long one.

i like the passing.

i like the fact that at least my cpu teammates can spin move while rushing the passer.

i really like the studio updates. if there is one thing about watching a game on saturday is the scoreboard ticker and studio updates about other games.

EA needs to get a god damn patch out to fix this piece of **** pass coverage.

Somewhat minor, but I noticed Nebraska's new stadium addition isn't in the game. Don't know if this can be patched or not, or if it was already announced somewhere that they weren't putting it in the game?

Finally got the chance to pick this years game up and I had a hell of a first game. I played an exhibition game as UNC vs wake forest. It was a shoot out.

I must say the cpu's passing is much better this year. I had a tough time stopping their no huddle passing plays. I was however very capable of stopping their run game even tho I got burned on a couple option plays.

I'm loving the way the running game feels this year. Blocking is improved but still has its hiccups. One thing I loved was my lead blocker went back for a crack back block and you could hear the shoulder pads crackle!

My only complaints after one play was the no huddle bug. You literally have no time to choose your play. Also I ran the read option about 12 times and the DE went for the RB every time. Also after touchdowns were scores the camera would just focus on the ball unless u press triangle. The most damaging thing was the game for 10 seconds was moving in slow motion.

I'm sure once these things get ironed out I'll love the game even more. Definitely saw alot of improvements. And FYI, wake forest scores the go ahead field goal with 2 seconds remaining. I debated calling a fair catch and throwing a Hail Mary, but instead I opted to return it and ran it back for the game winning TD! Final score 42-38
