Welp I just spent a fast $80.  I'll have a great new EMAW controller for NCAA 25, though!

So I played last night and I have to say, I was marginally disappointed. I'm sure I'll feel better once I get hold of gameplay. I don't love the K-State playbook, the playbook in general. I'm getting delay of game, out the ass. I played flood aggie on All American, that's the mode I played on '14 and got absolutely murdered. I played them again on varsity and completely turned the tables. It's overall much harder to play.

The stadium looks amazing, they have the pyro after scores too, which is cool. No Willie and the weird ass jazz band rendition of the fight song and wabash was beyond a bummer. They do have sandstorm but it's very underwhelming.

We overhyped this game so the initial impressions are kind of meh, but it will get better the more it gets played.

I played two games yesterday and my impression was "yup, this is exactly like the old ones with marginal updates"

I really like the playbook feature of calling a play for a certain player.

I highly recommend building out your own playbook or utilizing favorite plays.  It's very helpful to build that out to 30-40 plays and have easy access to ones you're comfortable with.

As someone who hasn't bought a console in 10 years this was a disaster. 3 Walmarts all sold out, 2 best buys sold out. GameStop had nothing in the metro area.... finally found a vintage stock in Belton that had one

When I called GameStop to see if they had any he was like "Let me guess, it's for the football game....your the tenth call today"


Anyways here is a live look at Ben ji shaking off the rust in practice mode/play now/mini games.

At one point in 2012 I was the 333rd ranked player on however Xbox determined their ranking (I quickly fell back down to the 1,000's where I normally was), played exclusively with K-State and just Snyder balled people to death. Slow grinding offense featuring plenty of CK7 Power runs and some deep shots. The defense was bend but don't break, shorten the game and win by 3-7 against better teams.

I'm never getting back there but I'm at least going to get good enough to be over .500 in online play.
