Schauwn's NCAA 14 Dynasty (Take 2)

Alright, I think I found some sliders that are a bit more challenging, though the first game results don.t speak to that. I'm going to try and use the mod tool on the OS forum and create a 4-team (6 or 8?) playoff, with anyone that wants to participate as the "Playoff Committee".

I'll post updates from not only my team (CMU), but from the top-25 as well. Hopefully I'll keep up with it this time.

First game of the year, as CMU, and I set up a Away game with Michigan. I actually had to restart this game because I started it playing it with the new sliders last night to see how they were. Once I got everything setup and saw that I liked them enough, it was too late to finish the game.

Cooper Rush and the CMU Chippewa's go into Michigan and beat the Wolverines 31-16. The final score doesn't indicate how close this game was all the way through.

After a 3 and out from Michigan to start the game, I was able to piece together a long drive and score with 2:22 left in the first quarter (8 min quarters). I kept the ball on the ground and stayed ahead of the chains, I really didn't think I'd be able to drop back and pass with success against Michigan's defensive line. Michigan answered early in the second quarter with a 48 yd FG. After a False Start on 2nd down, I wasn't able to get a first down, and had to punt the ball back to Michigan...who promptly scored a TD, making the score 10-7 in the Wolverines favor. Luckily, I was able to answer that drive with a TD drive of my own, capped off with a 36 yd play action pass to a streaking WR, just before the safety was able to get there and break up the pass, 14-10 CMU. Just before the half, Michigan is able to get in FG range and makes the score 14-13.

The 3rd quarter was pretty uneventful. I received the second half kickoff but wasn't able to get past midfield, Michigan followed that up with a failed drive of their own. Eventually I was able to kick a FG with 1:27 left in the 3rd, to make the score 17-13. The fourth quarter began with another long FG from Michigan, making the score 17-16. This would be the last time Michigan scored. I followed their FG up with a TD drive of my own, taking plenty of time off the clock, making it an 8-point game with just 2:36 left in the game. Michigan QB, Devin Gardner threw a pick on just the second play of the drive, and I was eventually able to punch it in with :48 seconds left, sealing the victory for the good guys.

Well...this is the game that proves the sliders are tough.

After beating Michigan last game I was thinking of ways that I was going to have to handicap myself after I won too many games this first season and think about which sliders to tweak, etc.

Minnesota comes to CMU and whips me, 19-7. I don't score until the 3rd quarter and at that point I was down 16-0. I just couldn't get my run game going at all, and threw a costly pick in the second half.

Well...after getting beaten by Minnesota, I got stomped by Toledo. I just couldn't keep up with their HUNH, and their run game. 48-24 was the final score with 7 of my points coming with less than a minute left on the clock. I couldn't run the ball at all and constantly faced 8 man boxes with the weak side safety seemingly always down near the line of scrimmage. Cooper Rush threw two picks and it was just all too much to overcome. So after beating Michigan in our first game, we lose two straight to what appeared to be easier opponents. Toledo's QB (T. Owens) went 17 for 25 with 175 yds and 2 TDs, he also rushed for another 71 yds with 1 TD, mostly on scrambles. Their RB (D. Fluellen) rushed 17 times for 195 yds and 2 TDs. He was just so much faster than most of my defense and with their spread attack, it was usually just one guy he had to beat to make it a 8-12 yard gain.

C. Rush
23/31
312 yds
0/2

Z. Tipton
18/65

A. Flory
6/49

T. Davis
5/91

Next up, Penn State.

Another game, another loss, 1-3 now. Three straight losses after I opened the season with a win versus Michigan.

Penn State jumped out to a 28-0 lead before I was able to get a touchdown before the half to make it 28-7. No one scored in the 3rd quarter and I scored first in the 4th to make it 28-14. Penn state would follow that up with a FG to stretch the lead to 31-14. I was able to score two late TDs to make the score look respectable, but it was never really that close.

C. Rush
26/35
345
3/1

Z. Tipton
18/83
1 TD

T. Davis
12/177
3 TD

Next up is Miami (OH). Hopefully we can move to 1-1 in conference play.

Finally get another win, to improve to 2-3. Our second win comes over Miami in conference play, and this was a back and forth game all game. We traded touchdowns until I couldnt get in the endzone just before the half and had to settle for a FG to make the score 21-17. Luckily I got the ball first in the second half and was able to score a TD to take the lead for the first time in the game, 24-21. However, we Miami responded on their next drive to temporarily take the lead, until I was able to follow up with a TD of my own. 31-28. Miami would kick a FG with just under 5 minutes left in the game, to tie it up at 31. I responded with a TD to go up 38-31 with 2 minutes left, just needing a defense stop to end the game. Unfortunately, my defense played about as well as they did the rest of the game, giving up a TD with 56 seconds left, game tied at 38-38. I was able to get a big return on the kick off to get near midfield, a few passes later and I was able to kick a FG as time expired to take the lead for the last time.

Florida State drops 2 places, as the "coaches" decide it's time to reward a couple of unbeaten teams.
Oklahoma loses on the road at TCU, stays in Dallas for the Red River Shootout.
Auburn drops to #22 after getting beat by Ole Miss at home.
Rutgers and Florida make their first appearance in the top 25 after wins over SMU and Arkansas, respectively.

Butt whoopin'.

I couldn't stop Ohio's option run game. Ohio averaged close to 10 ypc, and their first 2 plays of the game were each 80 yd TD runs. Wuf.

Crazy game. I could not stop NIU on defense, they were able to run the ball 45 times for 324 yards. All game, they just ran the zone read up and down the field on me. Jordan Lynch was 10/15 for 134 yards, but rushed 22 times for 162 yards. Their backup RB came in early in the 3rd quarter and ran 10 times for 87 yards and 2 TDs.

1st quarter:
NIU scores first on a 8yd TD run. 7-0
CMU answers with a long methodical drive of their own, 7-7.

2nd quarter:
We trade possessions, eventually NIU scores with 1:42 left, 14-7.
I throw a pick two plays later, NIU is able to kick a FG before the half is over, 17-7.

3rd quarter:
NIU tacks on another FG, 20-7. *At this point, the game is starting to get away from me, I know I'm going to have to stop their offense to get back in the game, and so far that hasn't been possible.*
CMU gets 7 points with 2:19 left in the 3rd, 20-14.
NIU quickly responds, 27-14.

4th quarter:
CMU scores early in the 4th, 27-21.

*this is where it gets fun*
With 2:50 left in the 4th, NIU gets another FG, 30-21.
With :50 left, I'm able to finally get into the end zone. It took two 4th down conversions and way more time than I wanted. I decide to go for two to try and make it a one point game, thinking that if they score another TD and by some miracle I can get a final second TD, I can tie the game with a 2-point conversion. Unfortunately, 2-point play is unsuccessful, 30-27.
I onside kick, dont recover. I sell out for the run each play, and had all my timeouts. With 34 seconds left, NIU kicks a FG to make it 33-27.

In 5 big plays, I'm able to get into the end zone as time expires. The extra point gives us the victory. CMU upsets 4-1 NIU. Huge victory.

#5 ESPN classic.
