Everyone is really pissed that you can jump ahead and dominate in the first half, then you cut to the 2nd half all of your players turn to shit and the computers become gods. Major complaints about the fact that a computer WR will go up and get a bomb poss in triple coverage procede to toss your guys off and go to the house.

These two have been around for years, and not just in NCAA. I've had 4-touchdown leads evaporate in the second half because they ran for -48 yards in the first half, but now I can't stop them... or they passed for 78 yards in the first half, but now everytime they throw it up, the WR ends up in the endzone.
The WR issue goes back to an issue I had with '04... sometimes the only way a team could score, or move the ball at all, was courtesy of 50+ yard passes. The CPU's QB would have 15 completions for the game, but have 3 touchdowns & 400 yards passing.
One of the reasons I quite buying Madden & their NHL series is because of the "scripted" feel to it... especially the hockey series. There were times I felt I had to do the cheap plays just so I could get a lead before the CPU decided to take over the game.
