    I can't believe the game play

    On the 360. Everyone of my opponents sprinted out away from the line, it was ridiculous!!!! But I still managed to put up 45 on my last opponent. It was 56-45 something like that. I am just going to enjoy playing the 360. When I get on line, I am not going to expect anything. I am just going to play my game. Between the runners out of the pocket, and the cpu controlled dropped balls. I can't take 360 serious. I just can't!!!!

    Were they West Virginia or Ohio State?? lol. I feel your pain man. I don't know if this is just how people like to play or if it is because the game is still new and this is the only way people know how to move the ball right now. Either way I guess that is what we have to expect when we hit "play now." I guess if you look on the bright side you know what they are doing every play...

    nanos

    hence why nano blitzes are a must... because traditional defense doesnt stop non-traditional offense.

    I've had good success looping the line and bringing heat off the edge against scramblers. Seems to work pretty decently.

    I'm playing 360 right now just because I want to give it a fair chance. I don't want to quit it just because I'm not as good at it as PS2. Plus, I realize that it's the future of the series, so it's a good idea to get acclimated now since the gameplay is only going to change so much next year (when almost everybody will move to next gen one way or the other), and I don't want to be playing catch up a year from now.

    Playmaker would help to stop this.

    Yes, it's pretty annoying, but if you played Madden 06 online for 360, against a running qb, then you would know that this is the norm.

    In ncaa 07 it's worse, because 30-40 percent of the teams have a scrambling quarterback.

    People will figure out how to stop this over time, hopefully.

    I don't know what to do personally, it is kind of annoying getting into these high point matches.

    i like to blitz the corners at them and play zone behind it, try to make them turn over the ball, most people who scramble every play are not very skilled so a simple zone blitz can usualy force them into an error, if you just stay in a cover three they will eventuly throw a bad pass on the run and your linebacker or safety will be there to pick it off, the way i see it is let em' scramble if i can take away everything else...

    Take a fast LB and play max zone. Start with your LB in the middle, 3 yards off LOS. When QB breaks for the side, try to take a direct angle and sprint towards him. Works most of the time.

    The delayed BnR works. If you couple that with DE Contains,
    Outsde Blitzing, Cover 4, with the occasional 05 nano (Dime one
    works) using both man w/ the delayed or zone - then the D begins to
    find position on the ball. Then, you just need to user defend to make
    plays. I can't stress enough that you need to user everything, to
    both score points verse good defenders - and to check offenses from
    having easy paths to receptions and yardage. I drop passes. I get
    many pass interference penalties. I give up some points. BUT nothing
    comes easy. I'm 20-1, and have won some very close games verses
    very worthy players. Don't discount 360's NCAA yet. You just need to
    improve your force of will.
