Every year on NCAA I start off with KSU and do about 5 years with them until i'm in contention for the NC every year. Then for a real challenge, I take a 1 star prestige school, and build them up. Last year I did Florida Atlantic. Eventually the ACC took me in and kicked out Duke. FAU was pretty easy to do that for because I was in Florida, a big state for recruits.

A REALLY challenging school would be one in a small state, with a 1 star prestige rating.
Another reason I like this game is that I had to make my defense more realistic. I had problems on Heisman, too, and even though I tweaked the sliders, I'm also not getting away with the same over-aggressive defense I've played for years.

I usually do something like that, too. The problem in '04 was that recruiting was really easy, no matter which team you picked. I built KU in a couple of years, went to South Carolina for the hell of it and they were a powerhouse within a couple of years... and then went to the 117th ranked team (Buffalo) and built them in a few years.

I like building bad programs in big conferences. I've done the Buffalos and UConns, but I get tired of playing Toledo and Rutgers. My hope with KU every year is that KSU, Nebraska, Texas, OU, etc; make their way to the top so I can knock them down & so it strengthens my schedule.

I'll eventually try that, but I might go with a bigger school to start... I love the atmosphere in this game, and it's just a bit more exciting playing Tennessee @ Florida than KU @ Missouri.
