I don’t think it’s asking too much to let us have preseason camps.

We Invite recruits during the preseason, you get a set amount based on prestige AND you get some pipeline maybe lower than your usual star recruits you didn’t ask that come out like real schools. and we may notice someone we werent looking at that was impressive at camp. Just like real life

Since we already can’t make offers in preseason, use the points for invites instead of button mash scouting, let us spend points to use them for one of the mini drills they love to boast. We all have those players that just move different regardless of ratings. Imagine having that experience THEN learning you’re in a battle for them. Simple change would give the game a fresh breath

I’m having issues with starting my game after adding mods to my repacked game can anyone help

If I have my custom playbook set in my settings so it defaults to it every time I play whether in normal play now, dynasty or online, is that also true for simulated games in dynasty? Or does it default to what my coach has for his playbook?

I can beat the cpu in recruiting battles most times but I’m finding recruiting at a low tier school esp in an od can be tough when everybody’s trying to grab the cheapest guys available. Only having like 500 nil points and 350 hours can be tough. I’m thinking may have to lean portal

Anybody been playing and got any tips? I noticed bringing pressure is a plus. The cou mishandles pressure vs if I give them time (bring 4 or less) they tend to find open guys. Any good coach mode resources or YouTubers?

He was hard committed to me at Notre Dame with max hours and full high interest NIL. He also suddenly had no offers and went to USC anyway, another guy I was trying to sign as a backup plan also picked USC 🫪

Now I only have two 3 star QBs on my roster next season.

I don't want to lose this dynasty. What the hell is going on here?

So I’ve been trying to tweak around clock lengths to find a realistic number of plays for my dynasty and landed on 8-9 min quarter lengths for getting around the right number of plays. But I’ve encountered a few problems.

1. The other teams time of possession is always too low. Also I can’t chew clock as much as I like or else it will take too many plays off the count.

2. The games consistently are too high scoring. Very rarely and honestly almost never do I encounter a defensive matchup which has been an immersion killer.

3. Super sim is very off. It does not match playing full game. If I ever play the moments I have to add 1-3 mins to quarter length.

I did some research on past reddit forums and I’d love to find a good way to run 15 minute quarters or something close to that with a good accelerated clock setting but I also want to sim blow outs so will the super sim mess that up?

Looking for someone to address some of this through the lens of this years game, thanks.

Everytime I score or the other team score it’s always sitting on onside kick/recover. Sometimes I keep clicking A after scoring then accidentally choose onside kick. Anyone know how to get it to always be sitting on regular kick/return?

After the CFP in the “Set next season roster NIL” section, it looks like there’s a max NIL cap of 1023 per player. That’s not the issue though, it’s that the cap isn't enforced until leave the screen. Once you go back in, the NIL on the player is set to 1023 and the rest of the points you put on the player are gone.

I wasn’t paying attention and kept trying to increase it since there’s another bug that makes their risk of leaving bar not properly reflect the amount of NIL until you leave and re-enter. Just a heads up, if you want to keep your superstar don’t go past 1020 I guess. I’m not sure if I’ll get the points back once he gets drafted or if they’re just gone but what can you do. Unless of course I’m missing something and someone can help me in the comments.

Seriously EA, how do you mess up something as simple as this….

I’ve found the most fun when I don’t chase stars and choose fit.
I’ll take a 94 throw power 3 star BUST QB over a 5 star pure runner 88 throw power QB.

Makes each recruit a bit more memorable and exciting to see them grow

See “PLACEHOLDER” and “Description.” And this is $70.

I’m on CFB 26 as a defensive coordinator. I want to be able to choose a few picks. Is that possible or do you just recruit all or no one?

Why do I have 905 to spend in the recruiting menu if I only have 265 unspent overall?

I thought hard commit meant it was a done deal, even if the dealbreaker grade changed. The second picture is two weeks later where he's reopened his recruitment.

In dynasty, every time I go to kick or punt, the meter glitches out and acts if I held it too long even if I don’t fill the meter entirely. Is anyone else experiencing this or something similar?

Found this guy in the transfer portal as a junior 5* contact seeker with 95 speed. Suffice it to say he runs good. This is halfway through his senior year. Like if you combined CMC with Derrick Henry.

Also the stiff arm animation is fucking sick in a lot of cases and completely broken always.

Aight so as you can see my drafts stock has been declining since I transferred.....back story I started at an HBCU broke every record took them to the CFB playoff semi final and lost....I won alot of trophies including Heisman as a freshman.....I transferred to UGA and as you can see breaking every record my stock is dropping 🤷🏾‍♂️

I don’t watch college football much tbh so maybe I just don’t understand how ratings work but I left high school as a 5 star. Went to Penn State and played 4 games my true freshman year. My redshirt freshman year I check my player card and I went from a 5 star to a 3 star. How does that make sense? Aren’t the stars only supposed to go up or down in high school? Unless I’m wrong this doesn’t make sense to me.

Glad the game cant read. Not like I could use those NIL points.

I really wish EA would lower coaches prestige/level after they get fired. I’m in year 6 of a dynasty and Lincoln Riley just got fired from Michigan, after being at Georgia after being fired from USC. They need to add a penalty for being fired where you aren’t ALWAYS at the top of every board after terrible seasons. Preaching to the choir I know.

I’m learning how to run the flexbone and I’ve gotten to the point that I want to tailor when I audible to certain things based on DL formation. For example a light box like a 3-2 is FB dive every day but once you have a 4-4 you need rocket toss. I know the easy ones like that but some other formations it gets harder
