Lost to A&M with Alabama 59-56, the defense in this is absolutely horrible. Both of us had over 600 yards, McCarron with 411 passing and 110 rushing while Manziel had 313 passing and 203 rushing

Just like to add this, no reason these kids can't get a $1 or 2k cut of the money the NCAA gets for selling their likeness. I mean I understand they get a free education, yet no one pays those loans until the graduate anyways. I'm one of the big earners of most kids and I'm making $250 a week PT and that barely affords much of anything. Athletes have no time for a job, yet the NCAA expects them to turn down boosters offering cash just for the sake of the integrity of the game? Bull if you ask me

So I'm Michigan, playing @ Michigan State. A few seconds left in the first half, I run a hail mary. Gardner launches the ball to the end zone, and it's a tip-toe, falling out of bounds INT for MSU..... all of a sudden the "broken record" box pops up and they call it an INT returned for a TD, longest ever at 121 yards. WHAT
I thought you were going to say a plane flew into the stadium and everything blew up.

Only glitch I've encountered actually helped me out. Intercepted the ball around my own 15 yard line, and instead of starting from my own 15....I instead started from his 15 and in the redzone

Refs made a mistake

Game #17 online, I finally had an opponent under 20 points. And it was basically because both of us of used a good amount of "chew clock".

College athletes get paid...they get to go to school for free and have $0 to pay for the rest of their lives. How many people do you know have owed on their student loans for 10-20 years after they graduate?

I'm not sure how the stipend works...but the free education is enough...that amounts to 10s of thousands of dollars and maybe 100s depending on where they go to school.

I dont know a single athlete who is in financial trouble at Akron. They get a nice stipend. There are other options than college if you want to play your sport that bad.

What % of athletes go pro? How many athletic budgets are in the red? They should be thankful they are getting a chance to get a free education.

It's not about that. It's about unequivocally giving up your lawful right to your likeness.

@Tiger2003 (or anyone else who's kind enough to answer) - Do you have the lockerbox name for the Operation Sports rosters?!

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Midstate01 again.

So in an online ranked game if someone just disconnects you don't get credit for a W even if you were winning?

I was beating some guy that had a nice record by 21 in the 4 quarter and he disconnects and I get nothing.

Usually you get a W.

Showing improvement on the defensive side of the ball. Not sure if the two guys I played were just not as good as some of the others or what but I actually forced a punt last night. It was amazing.

Ready for this dynasty to get going.

This is my first NCAA game in a couple of years, so I am a little behind the times. How would I go about getting the rosters? Are there any openings in the dynasty you guys have? Any help would be appreciated.
