EA Bringing back NCAA Football (2 Viewers)

the biggest issue i have with defense is the tackling...it's terrible

it also seems like the answer is to just run some type of zone blitz on every play....or a cover 2 blitz...

basically, you have to blitz at least one LB and have someone over the top on every play...this will keep most plays in front of you

Sounds like a skill issue.
 
Sounds like old NCAA you had to run nickle fire man, spread the line and pinch... works every time... then run robber when they think they got you figured out..

It honestly seems to depend on who you are playing. If they have a QB that can run you need to play zone and bring zone blitzes to pressure the QB and as run blitzes. You have more options against teams with QBs that can't run. Which, shocking as it is, is kind of like the real game.

next you have to deal with the pinball 'tackling' mechanic where every CPU player is Darren Sproles just bouncing off of defenders

Yep it is very annoying. I read that it's that way on purpose. Not a bug, a feature.

I pride myself on defense but it's so tough on this game. I have one shutout in about 150 games played. That was in the CFP tho so I'll take it...I did slow the clock down second half tho, so there's and asterisk.
 
For my 25th dynasty I'm putting the teams back where they belong lol. Hate these new alignments. I'm an old man yelling at clouds I know. 😂
 
Finally figured out why I couldn't get into the EA servers. My EA account was linked to an old email for my PSN account. Had to get with chat support and get that unlinked so I could link my "new" accounts. Working just fine now. I managed to download my NSU created team and did a Play Now with them. I do wish there was a true Create A Team like we had years ago. I used Northern Illinois' stadium and there are a few parts of it that obviously don't belong. Nothing that I can't overlook, but certainly a bit distracting. I'll eventually do a dynasty with NSU, but I'll soon start one with ULL and build them up. I just need more time in the day. The last couple have been crazy.
 
Midway thru a game and all of the sudden the game decided to update. Right after I score on a punt return. EA never fails to suck with their online support. This totally breaks the immersion for me. Oh well, my cue to stop playing, turn it off go outside and touch some grass.
