Texas predicted to win Big 12. Lose in national Title game

Ok well not really predicted, more just a simulation. IGN ran a simulation on NCAA 09. The Horns ended up ranked number 1 in the BCS but lost to Wisconsin in the championship game

That's actually really funny

Maybe the computer simulation moved Chiles to WR, retained Jamaal and Jermichael, and played some super stud freshmen who matured quickly.

And Brett Farve went to play for Wisconsin...

We gave OU and Missouri their only losses of the season (Missouri twice, though they get beaten by South Carolina (?) in the Cotton Bowl) while Tech went 4-8. I guess the computer is no substitute for Leach on the sidelines. Also, Florida won the SEC but didn’t go to the BCS? What’s wrong with EA? Can’t they program the selection procedure properly? Also, how the hell did Florida beat Tennessee in the SEC Championship game? OU managed to hold off BYU 46-45(!). Hilarious. Hey, where’s Chase? Does the computer really F up the BCS selections and conference CGs like this, or is this site BSing?

Might be part of the site

Because the game is usually pretty good about those things

wow

Its funny, in my dynasty I went undefeated through the regular season and then accidentally simulated the MNC game (this is really easy to do, if you have the game be careful when you get to the postseason) and lost to Wisconsin 38-21. I have no idea why they’re so good in this game, but I also played against a guy using Wisconsin in my online Dynasty and their QB is really fast, and they have a good WR and a good scatback. Their defense is solid too.

Fortunately the guy I played apparently thought it was a good idea to run the same play over and over and over (literally 95% of his offensive plays were the same play, and about 85% of his defensive plays were too) which included the QB rolling out to the wide side of the field with the scatback in the flat and the good WR doing an out route. Once I started doing a CB blitz most of the time he couldn’t move the ball but refused to switch to a different play. Texas won @ Camp Randle 31-21, he was shut out in the second half.
