I walked on as an Oregon State running back, to give the poor Beavs a shot at winning the Pac-10. I will walk on as a Tennessee MLB after I finish my first season.

I had to walk-on to UT. I got an offer from Purdue, UTEP, & I forgot the other one. I may end up redoing my race as a RB and go to another school that offer a full ride.

I think I will redo mine; The better you do in the drills, the higher your stats are. I was still getting accustomed to playing football on the XBox. My copy of Madden '05 was for PS2.

I saw a thread on another board about one poster's efforts to bring Kentucky to the top of the SEC.

I am heading into the LSU game in my RFTH. I am a scrambling QB but I never have really mastered the option. I am thinking of starting over and making myself a running back. That might be more fun.

Smokey, you should start a poll to see what position everyone is picking. I'll be it's mostly QB.

I started as a scrambling QB too. I am okay with the option, but I usually just load up one side with WR's, wait for them to clear out and take off running. I'm getting good numbers with it too.

I will have to try that.

I actually think some of the practice drills are pretty fun.

Freak, if you have a decent offensive line, options work wonders.

I must be stupid because I never have had to much luck with it. My QB always seems to have a guy in is face before I can get to the corner, then I pitch it and the RB gets caught behind the line. I suppose I need to run the practice drills or recognize which defenses it works well against.

Also, I beat LSU late last night by 10. I was killing them in the first half but they came back as I couldn't seem to get anything going in the second half.
