GG Machu. My whine part of the thread is how are they able to go for 4th downs so many times and so early in the fourth quarter only down a little?!!!!

Looking at the down, distance and location on the field, I believe the only way that would have happened was either by "preset" or Pikachus had their FG distance set at only 30 yards. They did attempt a 30 yarder in the game, and every 4th down in question that they went for it was between the 13.5 yard line (would be a 30.5 yard attempt) and the 30 yard line (47 yard attempt).

You can force yourself to go for it on 4th downs inside the 30 yard line like this by setting an unusually low FG distance setting. It would happen all game long though. There were no opportunities in this range prior to the 4th qtr so tough to say for sure.

That is strange then. Never seen the basic AI go for it so early in the 4th qtr like that.

Or at least attempt a pass beyond the 1st down marker

2nd.

Sunder laid out the 2 scenarios that I know of to go for it on 4th down. Looks like the Manchu magic is still happening ......

It's gotta be "score based play calling"

It was checked and the logic decided that going for the TD rather than kicking was the better choice.

GG in the TOC today Dot Fathers. Just couldn't stop you from controlling the ball.

As Rob Schneider's character said in the Waterboy "We suck again!"
