The return of EA Sports College Football

Since the last update I feel like things have gotten pretty leveled out online, and it's really fun. I've only been playing as NU and can beat or hang with any team but Bama. The only way I win against them is if my opponent sucks a$$. 

I can throw perfect passes or drop into coverages at the right time, but it's like everything is predetermined to f#&% me over. WRs drop easy throws, screens are blown up 100% of the time, RBs randomly fumble, the CB doesn't freeze on jet sweeps, INTs with no WR around are dropped, defenders take horrible angles or just whiff on user tackles that should be no issue, and that RB turns into a pinball where no one can bring him down... Even when I get a 3rd and long, here comes Milroe... It's like the game just gives me the double bird  :lol:
In our online dynasty my DE dropped a four yard wide open pass in the endzone which ended up being the game losing TD in the playoffs. Sometimes I hate this game.

Cornerbacks refuse to guard any sort of streak now too. It is insane! 

Try the Angle Screen to the RB. Only one that is viable that I have found. Believe it is in the Bama, UTSA, UAB, and other multiple type playbooks

What coverages are you using? I've found Cover 2 hard flat is pretty solid. I either user the Mike to cover the middle, meshes, and troublesome TEs, or I drop an edge into coverage to try to jump underneath routes. It's susceptible to getting burned deep against speedy WRs, but you can adjust the coverage to over the top which helps a lot. Then your suspectable to deep outs and corner routes.

I rotate that with Tampa, Tampa sim, Cover 2 invert, Cover 4, and the occasional Cover 3 with a 2 high look. But I only run Cover 3 if I'm sure they aren't running seam routes. Otherwise you're going to get touched if somebody knows what they're doing and they catch a glimpse of a single high.
