NCAA Football 2004 Hands-On

Recommended Posts

The Game is realistic until like 2009

 

Look at this...

 

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS from 2009-2015...

 

2009- North Texas over Ohio State

2010- Air Force Over N.C.S.U

2011-Louisville Over Texas Tech

2012-Virginia Over Arkansas

2013-Texas Over Georgia (they had 3 losses)

2014-Illinois Over Miami

2015-Cincinnati Over Kansas State...

 

Explain this to me...

All it takes is a good three years of recruiting and even the bottom feeder of the NCAA can become contenders. Heck, I have a prestige of like two right now. I could still win the Nationals if I try hard enough.

 

Only question I have is why the heck is Georgia who has 3 losses even considered a canidate for the National title?

Oh, now I remember. If they beat a lot of upperclass teams (ranks better than #10) then sometimes a team that losses three games will have a chance at the National title because they topped a lot of the better teams out there.

 

I did a simming dynasty just to find out about the recruiting process. I found recently that Ohio State lost 3 games, but still beat the hell out of many topped ranked teams to get #4 and still be qualified because they beat the #2 ranked team.

 

Then again, politics also come into play as I was given a birth at the Motor City title, even though my team ranked in at #7 overall.

Yeah SIM isn't accurate as the #8 team shouldn't play the New Orleans Bowl...

 

I could understand why COTTON Bowl is apprently a important bowl and is shunted into that big 5 scheme...

Finally got my Xbox to play it. Excellent. The defense is mad, yo. I'm playing a Dynasty with Notre Dame and in my second game against Michigan I had a great game. And it sure was a great game, that's for sure. I tried to start off with Texas Tech (I play on All-American -- new system/controller or not) and I got my ass kicked by the big teams (well I went toe-to-toe with Pittsburgh for three quarters). I managed to get my Xbox to show on my PC so hopefully I'll be able to take a snapshot of one of my covers soon.

Here's how my Dynasty stuff has gone so far:

 

Alright. I've had NCAA for a good while now, and here's what I've done so far:

 

Name all of the 80-99 rated players for well-known teams.

 

I started a Dynasty with Notre Dame and went all the way to the National Championship to take on Miami. On the LAST play of the fucking game, Miami throws a Hail Mary from their FOURTY yard line and they win. I was so pissed, although it IS my #1 Greatest Game (1100+ points). I quit that Dynasty and started another one with Colorado. I simmed the whole first season and I went 2-7 or something like that. They fucking fired me, so I went to Southern Miss. I start to build up that *** school from the ground up. Three years later, I have a NASTY defense (I'm talking 99 rated CBs and 99 rated FSs) and we have won FOUR National Championships. I'm in my fifth year (year 2007) and my defense is rated A while my offense is B- (although I DO have a 99 rated QB that is a Heisman candidate). Southern Miss is now a ****** school (a fucking powerhouse). After I won my second Championship, the SEC invited me into their division (USM is in the C-USA to begin with) and I gladly accepted. Also, in that same Dynasty I imported two created teams. The "Calgary Lightning" and the "Gotham Knights". The Knights had a Heisman winner for a QB the first year, but after that it's been going down hill. The Lightning are good (went from a *** to a ****** just like USM) and have even made a championship appearance to take on me.
