Ouch, y'all outgained us, we were lucky to win. If your drunk tight end knew how to tackle, you could rightfully trash talk us.

Man....that was an awsome game...the only complaint I have...is the last two offensive calls..when we were driving for the win...the last two passes were screens to the backs..and that is not in my playbook at all....I dont throw to the backs...

GRRRRR...

Good stuff to learn by though...and thats what I was looking for.

And I wouldnt trash talk a scrimmage...lol. Only when it counted!!

Great game, had me on the edge of my seat the whole game. Yeah, I didn't like the last call especially when Integra had a cushion and could have scored.....assuming he would have caught it

That's a classic A8 game right there. Old school, knock down, drag out war. Those last 2 plays were proof that your QB has outstanding vision. If I were you I wouldn't have wanted him to try to throw it to any of the WRs. They were blanketed. Overall though you guys gave us a scare. It'll be a better game than the one we get later in the day. Powerhouse, psh!

It's probably a good thing he didn't throw it to Integra on that last play. One of three things would have happened.
1. The Stag-man gets the pick-6
2. He drops it because he hears the thundering footsteps or
3. He catches the ball, for a second only to have it fall out of his cold, dead, limp hands after he is KTFO by Kyle Nelson.

doh, forgot my TE (72 yards) and LB (5 tackles 3 missed tackles) were playing on normal for that game, leftover from the previous one where they each got like 150 plays vs the Highwaymen

Yeah, we didn't view this as a rivalry game at all. We tried a bunch of stuff differently w/personnel and tactics because we know we had a good team that would tell us if they worked or not. Compare that to Nola where we used many of the tactics we currently use. We thought--man we aren't trying to win as much as try things that won't cost us like a real game would. What we learned? We won't be trying any of those things again!

Our returns we put FB and RBs on there to test the Vision issue that Bort is correcting. I don't want to go into details of what all we did in case an opponent would find this--but it didn't work out so well. Probably has a lot to do with VT as much as anything.

I really hate that you can't see the score of the game while watching it!!! Still I thought that we were beat late--but our D held up once again. As much as I'd love to continue the friendly rivalry next year with VT or Nola, etc., --I really think we can advance to AAA. I hate the 9:00 ET Sim finish now!

Thats how we viewed the game as well....Ive tried to line up a few very high quality opponents for exatly the same reason as you have stated...(note: That was meant as props to your team...) We didnt invite youall because your rivals..but your the best team (in our opinion) in the league we are trying to move up.

Then...I go down every play..and make adjustments to the D AI...these scrimmages are HUGE when it comes to learning what works and doesnt work. In just the last three scrimmages I have changed..and or fixed incorrect AI settings. I hope it was as big a learning experience for you all as it was for us...
