I simmed another season tonight using the sim engine on the PS2. I just set the system to simulate the entire season and walked away until it was done. The results were a bit shocking. I'm beginning to wonder if the PS2 version of NCAA 08 was coded at EA by monkeys.
Nothing wrong with this image, I just had to laugh at myself for not knowing that Temple joined the MAC this year...
But here's where it gets sticky..
They must be adopting Iowa's method of getting into bowls.
At least ISU did well.
And nothing like a little bit of BCS controversey.
For the grand finale, remember how those 5-7 teams finished? | Deep within the heart of Iowa, a storm is brewing...
... the winds of change ripple throughout the vast fields of corn surrounding the small college town of Ames.
The Gene Chizik era of football continues, and, with it, a renewed attitude of pride, determination, and success. This is Cyclone Football. |

Wow, that's a lot of weird stuff for the first time ever simming on 08. Looks like EA abanded the current gen crowd. Ron Prince wins coach of the year with a 5-7 record lol.

Just out of sheer curiosity... The fact that we're playing Virginia in a bowl game - does that make it the Gator Bowl?

No, I think it was the Armed Forces Bowl out in Fort Worth, TX. They must've renamed that bowl from something else?

Looks like we beat Iowa also.
