I beat Miami in the opener, and then figured I'd tweak some more... Played Western freakin' Michigan, and they were unstoppable. Slid them back a little, and they went to crap (well, worse than expected). I gave up for the night, because it was a little frustrating.... I'll probably leave them how they were against Miami until I play another comparable opponent.


I still love the game... Florida and Georgia are still near the top of the top 25, but Tennessee was awful last year... 2/3 isn't bad.
I completely understand what you mean. However, I just assume that I'm gonna have an adjustment period anytime I buy a new game. I can't stand playing and the CPU is kicking my ass when I know it shouldn't be happening (i.e. your Western Michigan game). Same thing goes if I'm dominating the CPU. I want to make the game to where there's a chance that I lost but at the same time not make it to where I'm losing to teams I should beat all the time. It's just a matter of balancing. I would recommend only adjusting one notch at a time unless something is really out of whack.
