I got this game fro Christmas on my PS3, and of course immediately started
playing a Husker dynasty without really knowing what i was doing :) I was
clever enough to find updated rosters for all the FBS teams with actual
player names ... I certainly enjoy the game more that way.

Anyway, in dynasty mode you play the current season's games (so for NU,
start with W Kentucky, then Idaho, then Washngton, etc). So far I've beaten
everyone but Washington (they scored a TD with :30 left in the game to win
32-28 ... Locker had a lot more than 4 completions, but so much for
realism), and beat Texas pterry good.

Anyway, was playing Ok State last night and they scored easily on me on
their first 2 series. I was running nickel every down and at a loss.

Then I remembered how OU shut down OSU's offense ... they went to the old
"50" defense. Well the closest they had was a 46 "Bear" defense, and it was
a whole different ballgame after that (so to speak). I think it speaks well
for the game that it behaves so much like the "real world" games did in that
regard.

Anyway, even though it's the offseason, I'm having a lot of fun watching
Henery and Helu and Amukamura and Crick still doing their thing on the
field! I just wish I had the manual dexterity and fast-twitch muscle control
in my fingers to give justice to their talents.

Oh, and Martinez is having a great season. :)
