So I'm playing NCAA Football 07... now that I've got my PS2 working good again. And I'm doing Dynasty mode with my Troy Trojans. And even with a 57 game winning streak, I'm still being shutout of the BCS Championship.
SO... I've decided to take matters into my own hands and schedule the top five teams in the nation - ON THE ROAD - for the first five games of the season, beginning with top ranked Tennessee.
I play the game a week ago and take a 35-14 lead into the half with a great two minute drive and TD pass on the last play of the half. Second half comes around and suddenly, I can't do shit. I got a grand total of one first down in the second half, and they tie the game at 35 with under a minute left on a pass into triple coverage. Game goes to OT, first play I fumble, second play they score. End of game. Naturally I flipped the game off immediately without saving.
Hadn't touched it since then until tonight. And the game starts out pretty even. The computer's playing a little tougher than usual, but it's nothing that seems unfair or anything, and I rally from a ten point deficit to take a 21-17 lead into the fourth quarter. With 4 minutes left, I pick off the QB just past midfield and seemingly have the game under wraps. So what happens next?
I take a simple counter play 15 yards, get hit from behind and fumble. Vols recover. Amazingly, I get an interception right back. So... feeling that I'm playing with house money, go for the gusto and run a play action bomb that is DEAD ON THE MONEY! But for some reason the computer-controlled receiver dives to catch the ball... it was RIGHT THERE. Next play I run the all curls, and it's one of those "linebacker shifts WAY too fast to be normal play" and intercepts me on a wide open receiver just shy of the goalline.
THEN... on 4th and 8 from midfield, the QUARTERBACK runs a DRAW and BREAKS FIVE TACKLES on his way to a 43 yard run. Of course they punch it in on 3rd and goal with a minute and a half left. So I'm still alive. Get a receiver open on a wheel route and he's GONE! I'm going to the house! No, of course it's not that easy, the defender waits until the 5 yard line to dive and pull me down. Goal line stand, highlighted by a rollout play on 4th down where I stop shy of the line to make my throw, but the computer says I cross the line - despite me RUNNING THE DAMN PLAY ALL GAME LONG - and I get sacked to end the game.
I fucking hate video games.
