Anyone here have any offline franchise they play?

I know the big thing with NCAA 10 is online dynasties but do you guys play offline? I have a coaching career, I started with Notre Dame. I am having a lot of fun because its a challenge. First game, Jimmy Clausen gets hurt out for 4 weeks, back up comes in the next game throws 5 picks. To make things worse my running back Armando Allen, BANG out for the season, back up comes in. I lose to Michigan. I'm 1-1. I'm thinking about starting my 3rd String Quarterback in week 3. My 2nd string (Crist) did horrible.

So how's your franchise going (offline)

Re: Anyone here have any offline franchise they play?

I'm an offline Michigan State dynasty player exclusively. That way I can go at my own pace. I was chugging along nicely early in Year 4, when my dynasty file got corrupted and wouldn't load. I save backups after each season but because the 3rd patch had just came out and with so much information learned since I had started my dynasty, I just restarted it.

Currently, I'm about halfway thru year 2 and happily struggling to stay in the top 25. I ended up going the Varsity route with some sliders based on Playmakers Varsity sliders modified for my style and ability and I've really had some very good games. In my original dynasty I started out on All-American then jumped up to Heisman but nothing felt quite right; either too easy or too unrealistic. That was when I first started tinkering with the Varsity sliders and was liking what I was seeing. So with the restart of the dynasty, I got a fresh start with sliders I like.

most of my NCAA 10 time has been in my offline dynasty with MTSU. I am in an Online Dynasty as well, but I'm a lot further into the mode on the offline one.

Re: Anyone here have any offline franchise they play?

I don't have the time nor the desire to play online, so I only play offline dynasty. For some reason I can't get into this years game. I love college football, heck I love football period. This has been the first year (playing since 98) that I have not been able to get into the game. I think maybe the lack of any new additions to the dynasty mode since the switch to next gen in 07 has something to do with it. I hope to pick the game back up and maybe I will try some new slider. I have used the same ones for years now. Offline is the way to play.

Re: Anyone here have any offline franchise they play?

I don't play online, I start every year with the U of Akron. I cant wait til they get the new stadium in the game.

But I was with them for about 6 years, I play on Heisman and play the hardest schedule I can make every year, and I think I won 5 national titles. Luckily I got into the big ten and its fun with that schedule plus the three OOC games against the likes of Texas, Oklahoma and Florida.

After that period, I left and went to 1* UNLV and my god was it so hard to recruit with such a crappy school. The only thing above a C+ was campus lifestyle. But my first year there I think I only lost two games which got me frustrated because I wanted it to be harder. So I adjusted the sliders for the computer to be 60 at everything and that made a world of difference. Im in my second year and Im still undefeated but my two hardest games are still coming up. I beat undefeated Utah in a #3 (me) vs #4(Utah) game that went down to the final seconds where I wont 57-54 I think and got the #1 game score. I got #7 Texas and #1 Akron (which is loaded from all of my #1 recruiting classes and they haven't lost a game since I left) up next so I don't think my luck will last vs those two teams.

Re: Anyone here have any offline franchise they play?

I just finished up my first year at Michigan. I road Tate Forcier to a Big 10 Championship and a BCS Championship win over Oklahoma. My hopes almost ended twice against Penn State and Ohio State. I was down huge to Penn State in the first half more than 3 scores. I battled all the way back to win the game with 4 or 5 touchdowns by Brandon Minor all in the second half. I went into the Ohio State game and it was a big battle through 4 quarters. I was looking at 4th and long and Forcier hooked up with one my WR's on a pass that just got past the trailing defender. Then Odoms got 1 on 1 in the back of the end zone so I threw it up to him and he went over Chekwa to give me the win with almost no time left.

The most astounding thing of all was the crazy recruiting class I got. I hadn't checked my overall recruiting just kept working the guys on my list. I went into the overall rankings after all the recruiting was done and I had 15 5 star recruits 6 4 stars and I think 2 or 3 3 star kids. I had only got 3 of those 15 in the off season recruiting. I have never gotten more than 5-8 5 stars in a year. It should be a lot of fun to see how all these prospects workout.

Another shocker this season was the transfer from Ohio State QB Joe Bauserman came to Michigan.
