NHL 07 PC -- Noooooo!!!!!

For me, sports wise, MLB 2K6, NBA Live 07, NHL 07 (PC only), and NFL Head Coach were all really, really, bad games.

NCAA 07 - Xbox only

Yep. No changes, unfortunately.

If you look at last year's top 25, most of them did not lose at all to any teams from weak conferences. It's good that it happens sometimes, but in CH2K7 it happens far too often. You'll typically see a 30-40 point margin of victory in those game in real life, but not in CH. Yep. It's the frequency...

Hah. You know me too well.

I'll do the unity at zero check tonight. I REALLY want to find a way to fix this; I'm getting tired of seeing power teams with .500 records and losing multiple times per year to really, really, bad teams.

I like the idea, but in no way should unity give you a blanket ratings boost, which appears to be the case. I dunno how playing with your buddies can possibly make you a better shooter.

The season results are really starting to look weird. Upsets abound.

I'm playing 15 minute halves in my legacy mode (12 years with dartmouth). Seem to be getting pretty good results. I'm also having the problem of way too few fouls--like 1-2 per game. Control of characters just isn't responsive or precise enough, and it seems impossible to draw a charge. The simulat...

So wait, people wouldn't have a problem with an OSU-Michigan rematch if there were playoffs. But they're opposed to it in the context of the present system. And many of those people who oppose the rematch are in favor of the playoff system or hate the current system? I'd have a problem with a remat...

That's the argument, though? Michigan should play in the title game because they have the better loss? They gave up 42 points and 500+ yards. And no, OSU didn't win on the final play or any such nonsense. Ohio State lead the entire game (practically) and was never in a position to lose. Michigan sco...

It's rare in this system when you get a chance in your last game to play for a title with a win. If Michigan beats OSU, they're in. No questions asked. Michigan lost. Few teams are ever given that much of an opportunity -- and Michigan failed to take advantage of it. Scoop is also dead on correct. O...

It's the Gators:

Doesn't matter to me, I think OSU is the best team regardless, but I still say you should have to win your conference in order to win a title, the only exception being if you have fewer losses. I just don't see how you can keep Florida out of that game.

It may not be the best time to bring this up with Db serving time in the penalty box, but LOL at Miami playing New Year's Eve in Boise at the MPC Computers Bowl. I wonder how many alumni of the U will ring in the New Year in Idaho. Considering about 15 guys showed up for the 2002 title game...I'm g...

College football is no longer just about the haves and the have nots, though, which is what you're implying (I think). It's a LOT tougher to stay on top now than it was 15-20 years ago. And a great coach/recruiter can turn a program around. Look at USC before Pete got there. As PK said, look at Syra...

There are a handful of schools which get top talent while the rest get scraps. I think "scraps" is a bit...wrong. There are around 20 schools that usually get their fair share of 4 star talent every single year. That's more than a handful, and the rest are hardly scraps. A great coaching staff can ...

Where's the love for Boise St? They destroyed a Oregon St. team that upset USC!

Boise St. is getting love in the form of a Fiesta Bowl bid.

Nevada is actually a top 25 team so while a #1 seed is prolly a stretch, they're a darn good squad. In my 2 default All American games, I played as the Bucks against UAB (dunno why I picked them). First game, I lost by 16. Ack. I then went in and re-read the controls and set some plays for game 2 (t...

Yep. Ashley is at school all day tomorrow. I'll be hooping it up with a non-injured Greg Oden

The Buckeyes' offense was stuck in the mud after Krenzel left Heh, well, many people, OSU fans included, felt the offense was stuck WITH Krenzel as the QB. Back in 2002/2003 OSU's offense was regularly ranked in the 70's or even higher in total points. It's what made a lot of people feel OSU was va...

The ball is now clearly in USC's court. They are #2 in the coach poll but still #3 in the BCS. With a win over ND, who is another top 10 BCS team, they will leap over Michigan if they win out based on SoS. The computers have loved Michigan all year, in fact they were rated #1 before Saturday so it's...

Was it really a down year for the Big 10 Yes. Penn State was down. OSU didnt play Wisky, and the rest of the conference was very average at best, with Iowa leading the overrated charge. It was a very down year for the B10. If Florida or USC win out, Michigan should play in the Rose Bowl. If USC los...

Got back from the game about an hour or so ago. What a night. My voice is shot. I have said from day 1: NO REMATCH I still feel that way. OSU gets one shot at Michigan each year -- and vice versa. Michigan had their shot, and lost. It's unfair to OSU to make them beat them again just as it would hav...
