Did Michigan mean to do this ?

September 06, 2011 at 09:10PM View BBCode

Leading 35-28 with 1:55 on the clock and facing 4th and 13 from their own 37 in [url=http://footballbeta.simdynasty.com/boxscore.jsp?boxscoreid=4840&thid=486]this game[/url] Michigan go for it and give New Orleans the ball on the Michigan 44 with 71 seconds on the clock.

I can't see any reason a team would do that but maybe the preferences are set up that way.

The Big Easy proceed to burn the Wolverines with a last play TD and then an overtime victory.

Michigan isn't do anything intentionally right now. Let me check my settings ... I haven't tweaked them in a decade.

If tied and within 60 yards of the goal line and there are less than 60 seconds remaining in the game, go for it [b]NOPE[/b]
If losing and there are less than 150 seconds remaining in the game, go for it [b]NOPE[/b]
Never punt within 35 yards of the goal line. [b]NOPE[/b]

The strategy tester doesn't help either, because it tells me what plays I would call on 4th and long ... not surprisingly this is usually a pass, and of course here we ran.

Feels like a big glitch to me.

Similar situation with the HAM/COL game as well. COL went for it on 4th and short from their own 43 with just over 2 minutes to play in a tie game. It worked out well for them, but I was shocked to see them try to go for it there.

I saw that too the other day in another game and pointed it out. (it might have been vs. Hammy???)

I don't want to talk about that game. I had 4th and goal from your 12 and I ran it up the middle when you were "keyed" to stop the run. That was ridiculous.
