New OD needs help finding good Heisman sliders

[taylort232]

I am somewhat new to NCAA 09, and we have a 4 person OD going on. I am 5-2 with Vanderbilt on stock heisman settings. We are all roughly the same skill level, and are having the following problems:

Picks in away games seem to snowball. If I throw one or two, ridiculous plays by the CPU DBs ensue, and it's tough to get out of the funk. It doesn't seem to happen when playing at home. Some of the picks are really unrealistic.

Robo QB. Make it stop.

In my last game, it was 22-14 (me winning) when my WRs fumbled THREE drives in a row to end the game 22-36! I was at Miss St, and the only thing I can figure is that it was something to do with home field advantage?

I have looked through these posts and slider settings, but I know there were some patches, and the popular threads were made as early as March. Any advice would be much appreciated!

here's the settings I've been using for about 5 seasons...haven't really changed anything in a long long time...I really like these.

Heisman 9 minutes

USER/CPU
Offense
40/35
0/0
15/0
50/50
60/100

Defense
55/60
100/90
0/0
100/100
40/20

ST
30/0
0/5
0/5
50/50
60/60

penalties: all maxed except offsides, false start, DPI, clipping at 95

These are based off a post-patch set made by fistofrage....a little easier than he prefers but I use ask corso

We have been running for 6 seasons so these sliders have been developed over a long period. They are difficult yet realistic. You will find that man babies will quit the dynasty since they can't win every game or score over 50 points.

BTW if you're referring to me in any way for quitting your little dynasty....I would like to point out that it's because you drastically changed the sliders every single week I was there. The way I play the game is completely different than you...I use Ask Corso because the CPU playcalling sucks so bad, so I do it to even it up.

It was never about not scoring 50 points or winning. I did fine in your league, and in my own dynasty, my overall record is below .500. It was about the fact that the stats were horribly unrealistic, because nobody could run the ball for me or against me. I don't allow myself to pick plays against the CPU, so I had to run stupid shotgun draw plays all the time on 3rd and 8 with difficult rushing sliders.

Anyway just to clear it up....I recognized your little insult, and me leaving had nothing to do with not winning enough or scoring 50 points....it was about the constant every day changing of sliders and lack of compatibility with my preferred style of play. In hindsight I should have just called my own plays....but its done now.
