I am out

[canerraid72]

24-21 in OT. I know this going to sound sore but F*(k IT.
I am up 21-0 at the half. He is running that POS QB from OK ST. Guy ends up 4-8 passing for an 85 yard td and a 54 yard TD. Do you know how ****ty that is. Guy does nothing but hit 2 deep passes. His one qb was 1-5 for 10 yards and this guy was 4-8 for 163.
I packed it in in the second half and should have just kept runnin my offense. Instead I just let it be and ran the ball .All my fault. Sorry guys I lost that one for us because I tried to run out the clock in the second.
Oh I was Stanford and he was OK ST.

You were up 21-0 at the half due to 2 fumbles and an int. You had not really stopped me in the first half, fumble on a 25 yard gain, and a fumble on a 3rd down conversion. In the first half my team dropped several balls. I took out D. Woods, cause he couldn't hold onto the ball, and missed a couple of open receivers. Yeah you probably should have poured it on, but you didn't and trying to run out the clock on every play starting after I scored in the third on an option keeper. On the 84 yard pass, you blitzed an played cover three behind it, (single coverage on wr) I user caught it and out ran you and scored. Don't forget your two scores were both 45+ yard passes, a hm type pass with no time left in the half, and a play action where your dude ran over my corner.

Please don't make seem like all I did was throw 2 bombs, look at the stats:

Point being, Yes all you did was throw 2 bombs. Completeing 4 of 8 passes and 1 of 5 passes is not really stellar. Mix in the fact that 2 of those passes weer for 140 of you 160 yards, make your own conclusion. As well you only had 113 yards on 22 carries, 13 of which were options.
You are actually trying to say I didn't do anything to you in the first half? Not my fault that your QB fumbles because thats who you run, but being shutout is being shutout. As well i was 10 of 18 for 155 passing. You were 5 of 13 for 176, not exactly short passes. You said it yourself both td's came with less than 4 min left on the clock. I would say being held to 1 td for 16 minutes and 2 coming in 4 minutes, both by bombs, I am well justified in saying what I have said. Mix in the fact that your TB scored on a 23 yard td run, I would say my D didn't give up much.
Look you played str8 and by the rules, but being beat by the long ball is being beat by the long ball. Next time I will not pack it in.

[canerraid72]

After getting down 21-0 in the first half, I tightened up my defense and opened up the offense. He never really stopped me in the first half, but Donovan Woods fumbled three times in the first half (2 lost), and threw 1 int.

I never really stopped you in the first half. Lets see 0 points, 2 fumbles and a pick. What is stopping you, 4 fumbles and 3 ints? I can't get a TO every time.
Odd sense of reality.

[rhombic21]

Dude, you're talking smack after losing. You lost, get over it. Quit trying to make excuses or claim that you should have won. Scoreboard.

[nc 40 acers]

I loose all the time hell its a game brother....LOL! Rhombic You know whats up .....LOL! he's been crushing me.. Learn to stop it or learn to loose brother but we to old to be acting like this now!

[M-Dub?]

Look you played str8 and by the rules

Not to pile on, but that pretty much says it all right there...

[bigjkt405]

If you add sacks back in I rushed for over 150 yards. Also two of your completions were for roughly 100 yards out of 155. Look man you lost, its okay, you blew a 21 point lead and you're upset. You also know that you had the TOP advantage, and couldn't move the ball very well (when the CPU) didn't give you a 50 yard field. You had one very good drive in the first half, after that it was nothing. You couldn't run the ball except for the fullback breaking tackles and juking. All you wanted was crossing passes back across the field (outside of view). Once I stopped that you didn't move the ball effectively. Yeah you might have "shut it down", but it wasn't all due to you. Its funny cause you scored two of your td's on bombs. One was a play action -- 45+ yd td pass, and the other was a hm type play at the end of the half into triple coverage.


Morency had like 8 carries for 30 yards. Woods 5 (including a sack)- 51 Reid 8 carries including sacks Shawn Willis had a carry- and Seymore Shaw had the TD run.

Several crossing routes I threw were dropped also. I only threw deep 4 plays. 1 INT, and 1 drop (first half) 2 TD's second half.

Anything else --- look at the stats- rushing I killed you, and you still had TOP.

I never really stopped you in the first half. Lets see 0 points, 2 fumbles and a pick. What is stopping you, 4 fumbles and 3 ints? I can't get a TO every time.
Odd sense of reality.

Your key words I can't get a TO everytime. EXACTLY my point. The cpu can't save you every third down by making me fumble. All three of those fumbles were on third down after I got the first. Once I fumbled at the first down marker, but the ball came back 3 yards and I recovered it. And then punted. You're proving my point for me. You have odd sense of reality when it comes to football.

computer generated fumbles on a 25 yard run, and a 15 yard run is not stopping me. The int I'll give to ya, but I treated that like a punt, and you ended giving me the ball back. .


Its just like the OU-OSU game last year. We were close at halftime, not due to anything we did on defense, but what OU squandered on offense( fumbles, muffed snap on punt)

[Melton82]

so the tourney is tied 3-3 now?

[bigjkt405]

Nope utopia is up 4-3 with one of our more higly regarded players coming up

[getting awn]

At times. I have learned to accept the decisions of the cpu, good, bad or ugly. It is something we have to deal with. On both sides of the ball.... I still love NCAA 05 Cursing it and all... LOL

I feel the same way. Even down 21-0 due to the cpu deciding to see how mentally tough I was. LOL I really think the CPU decides to make certain games an uphill battle. Momentum seems to really sway everything. In the first half, I couldn't keep any momentum on offense, fumbles really killed the flow. I should've known with the first fumble coming on the third play on 3rd and 5, at the end of a 25 yard gain.

I love the game cause it will reward you normally for good strategy when playing a straight game.

[Locke888]

This thread is just another example of how bad NCAA 2005 really is. Nobody's fault but EA IMO.

Oh my god, I have heard it all now. Dude you are going to come on here and act like you were all over the place.
You made it past mid field ONE time. No not all third down fumbles were after you got the first. The one with 30 seconds left, you wre short by 3 yards and going to the ground and fumbled. Your QB got stripped 3 times in the first half and picked 1once. You didn't cross mid field and had a total of 71 yards total, 51 of which was your QB running on 3 plays.
Your only drive that went into my teritory was when I switched up D after your threw the option pass play that I covered. You then converted a 4th and 1 to keep the drive going.
Your Passes were : 10 yds, 2yds, -3 yards, 25 yards, 84 yds and 54 yards. Your right your QB did run for more yards than posted. Fact still remains, you went past mid field on 1 drive.
I didn't do anything in the first half. Out of the toatal 1st half yards, all of your options that you got stripped on were accounted for.
1st drive- QB was stripped
2nd drive - Qb stripped and you got it back
3rd drive - you got picked on a 50 yard pass play
4th drive - 3-15 you ran your qb for 13 and got stripped again.
That was all your possesions.

Like I said before, I apologize to all my fellow teamates for packing it in and running. Remember this is our board and that is why I am posting here. I stated it before that all you did was run your qb and throw 2 bombs. you have posted that that is the case, End of story. You can try to spin it anyway you want, but the blame lays on me and I accepted that. Also Ciatrick posted how could I lose a 21-0 halftime lead and I was responding to that. I am not talking smack, I am explaining what happened in a game that my teamates didn't see and that I had well in hand and should have won, but due to trying to run the clock out, I didn't put it away.
