[b]You think I'm surrendering my strategy?* You crazy?* I can't wait to beat up on the "Big Shabang" soon!!! [snapback]112865[/snapback] |  Of course I'm kidding. Trouble is: SOME people actually have to work and haven't had a chance to check it all out yet! I've got to get the "juke" moves down before I can really make the most out of the runs, I think. It's quite a transition from Madden which uses the triggers.

| I don't play online, so I will divulge my favorite plays.
If I've got good linebackers and safetys, I like running Dogs Zone Blitz a lot from a dime package. It does a decent job of shutting down most running lanes/pressuring the QB and maintaing decent zone coverage. Other than that, I just like to run 4-3 and Nickel and call the play depending on the situation.
On offense, I'm all about rushing. Lots of counter plays against crappy d-lines. I'm not a big fan of tosses, so I barely ever run those. For the most part, my offense style is a combination of running up the gut and west-coast style passing. I usually run on first, pass on second, run on third, then run on fourth and less than three, or pass on fourth and three or more if I really need to finish the drive.

| I can't seem to get Simon through the line to pressure the QB against decent teams. He killed UAB, but was pretty ineffective vs the Gators and Tigers. Any tricks?
Also, anyone figure out how to get a shot at FG blocks?

| The game's AI also reacts to impact players, and Simon is one, right? They are keeping an eye out for him. Instead of blitzing him, put him on man or zone coverage and blitz our other linebackers. If you keep blitzing the same guy all the time, they'll start covering him more.
And no, I have never successfully blocked a FG.

| | agent of chaos | I've already made it through a season. Riggs won the Heisman, which means I ran the hell out of him because Ainge was not very consistent, and eventually got hurt.
BTW, FSU's defense is stout on this game. I played them in the Rose Bowl, and nearly got beat because of turnovers that they runed into tds.

| FSU does have a good defense. I think Ainge is underrated in this game. He's only an 80, I believe.

| I use playbook of whatever team I am using at the time. I don't need my own playbook, I feel I can audible and adjust however I need to during the game. |

| I just played a game with Utah today and have begun to rethink my strategy a bit... Their new QB is pretty quick but cannot throw very well at all. I was forced to run the ball and it was tough trying to keep the defense on their heels that way.

| Understandably so... a balanced attack is always best. Then again, everyone knows that the Vols are a power run team, with play action passing, but they just can't stop it. |
