    NCAA 08: The return of rocket-catching?

    Anyone remember the cheesy tactic back with Madden 04 and 05 known as "rocket-catching'? I'm pretty sure it's back with the return of the offensive strafe in NCAA 08. I just got done doing it perfectly and fluently with Indiana U's James Hardy (6'7 with like a 90+ jump rating).

    When you make posts like this, you've gotta mention if you're talking about current gen or next gen.

    Renegade is Armon from MA, who can really play. He's on NG.

    Someone got it off against me, so I tried it and was able to do it as well.
    Its definitely there and it looks to be just as effective as it was back in the
    day.

    Rocket = sprint to circle, strafe manually then jump straight up? Do you bullet or lob a deep curl or comeback?

    So the 6'6 one is Mario Urrutia

    If EA would let you switch to the CB instead of the freakin' safety on the deep ball, this wouldn't even be an issue.

    Pass the ball, click on, position yourself in front of the circle, square up and jump.

    awesome, doing it sometimes here in practice mode..takes some getting use to. is there a particular type of pass thats used, like a Lob, bullet etc and do you do any type of precision passing?
