Spiff Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I really like the idea of doing the league as a conference, and then having a conference championship game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T R U Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I will join a league if you start one... NCAA is my life... and when I get 2005, I am going to be glued to my TV 24-7 when I am at work, I am going to do nothing but dream about the game, and the second I can get home and turn it on and hear those ever so sweet words "EA SPORTS..... ITS IN THE GAME" I cant wait, today is the 9th, the game should be in my grasp in a matter of days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnB Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Soxnbears, how about we all agree on one league to play in, like Big 10, Big 12, Pac 10. BTW - don't count out the Top 25 Teams. I don't care if someone is a better team than me, my Northwestern Wildcizzzats will take down anybody. Can't stop the multiple options in Randy Walker's playbook. that's an awesome idea, we should definitely do that. Big 10 has a major favoring here though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 You could probably do a draft or something like that to determine who gets what teams. But, then again, it'd be pretty easy for the person who sets it up to rig it so they can one of the first picks and get a good team. I feel bad for whoever gets Indiana, and as much as I hate to say this, Illinois. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 My God, the Iowa Hawkeyes are composed of rapists, drug addicts and the son of the highest paid employee in the state who still gets subsidized housing. The Hawks and their fans make me f***ing sick. They are as bad as Cubs fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaSoxFan Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I am a fan but I am not like that! I just cheer for 1 player on that team. Number 37! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Yuck...Considine.....I know three players for the Hawks, good friends with 2. They just disgust me. I was so glad to be at Kinnick two years ago when the Cyclones just completely dismantled the Hawks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaSoxFan Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Ah... You are a Iowa State Fan. Considine is a good friend of mine. Good tailback in High School. My brother played with him win they won the Illinois High School Association 3A championship in 1999. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 My ass would be claiming IU if I had the internet capabilities when I get the game; however, I'll be on Game Cube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 (I know this topic is about NCAA 2005 but for one last time, I wanted to talk about Madden 2004) I feel like I just got kicked in the balls. I'm in this Madden league (www.maddenleague.com), and I made it to the NFC Championship game (BTW - the winner of the league is rewarded 250 bucks) and got absolutely dominated, 59-23. I was down by 9 at halftime, and from there, I threw about four or five second half INTs, and got my ass kicked. Never have I been beaten so badly. But it posed the problems with Madden. He ran one play on defense, a punt return defense, and it was able to stop my offense. I know that seems wierd, but just by moving a couple of guys around, he was able to absolutely shut me down. Second - just by motioning his WRs, he was able to beat my bump-and-run coverage. The CBs in Madden are way too slow and way too sucky. I mean, all he had to do was throw passes up to Ron f***ing Dixon and he would beat the crappy Saint defense. And with this, I will sell both games tomorrow towards the purchase of NCAA 2005, and then I will come home and not leave the PS2 for at least seven hours. Here's to another successful year of Madden and NCAA Football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's to another successful year of Madden and NCAA Football. That's the major problem with madden, I can stop the run but I can't ever stop the pass. I've tried everything, the best thing on defense that I have done is bump in run coverage but it still doesn't work very well. The thing that pisses me off so much about that to is I'm always miami and their secondary is so damn good and rated great in the game and I still can't stop anyone.

Stopping the run, very easy, IMO. But the pass - it's not even the user's problem, it's just that the AI is so f***ing dumb. The corners play absolutely no defense. In the EA Producer Interview, he said that Shut-Down corners (Champ Bailey, Chris McAllister, Ty Law) will actually be effective. I'm really hoping that holds true.

CWSGuy406 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Wooh! Only about nine hours or so until I grasp the beautiful NCAA 2005 PS2 Game case. I'm so excited. (I'm such a nerd.) Anyways - ahem (In my best Hawk voice) I looooooove NCAA 2005... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
