Official NCAA Impressions Thread (360, PS3)

[bowld]

i played both demos and thought the 360 was smoother so i bought it for 360.

i can say this...the real game is MUCH better tha the demo in many ways

I'd love to see the completion percentages and TDs/Ints for the QBs between #61 and #70. This will tell us what we can expect statistics-wise from the average QB.

I'll run another season sim to see how the stats vary when I get back from work around 5:30 PM PST.

It's B on the 360, so I assume it's O on the PS3 as well.

I just went through and deleted close to 30 posts. Discussion is not necessary. Question, answer. That's it.

Acid, those stats look good.

Questions (for anyone)
1) How did the pass rush seem after all the talk?
2) Was the running game solid? Could you take a good running team and get the yards on the ground?
3) Middle passing, comments and thoughts?

Thanks in advance and congrats on getting it early

I played UCLA v USC on default AA last night.

1) I was able to get a good amount of pressure on Sanchez, I think I had like 4 or 5 sacks in the game.
2) Kahlil Bell had about a 5.5 YPC avg in the game, but it varied throughout the game. Sometimes I'd get 6-7 yards a run, other times I'd get 1-2 yards, so the running game is definitely improved on last year I think.
3) Short to middle passing is great, Cowan was doing great in the short passing game but then he completely crumbled and threw 3 INTs.

I only played one game before I started messing around with Campus Legend, so that's only a small sample size but hopefully that helped.

It does help and thanks for the info. If/when you check back after a few games, can you comment on those questions again? Curious to see what the big deal with pass rush was, if middle passing is too easy and if the ground game is a force this year.

cpu missed a 41 fg terribly left

oh and for those worried about the HB slip screen working too well, the first time i ran it the cpu just killed it and incomplete
