I just saw the scoreline for Hurricanes v Penn State.

I dont know what the hell happened after the first quarter. One team only ran the other only passed so it couldnt have been that much of a strategy shift in the playbook. Thats a crazy number...

It was definitely an unusual amount to win by.

We don't know if the Hurricanes were playing relaxed or Penn State were playing MOTY (although both seem unlikely)

6 interceptions didn't help either. My only other observation is that Penn State have one of the highest coach salaries in the game...might be a contributing factor.

No, it just looks like Hurricanes 'catch-up' gameplan is shockingly bad.... medium/deep passes - not feasible with the 'old' match engine. I tried them against bots and newbies last season - hopeless.

Very strange day so far. In all the leagues greatest teams has big problems to win with a big margin.

There has to be something on this, as I had the same slow start last year. This year it went better as I've won, but I did it without my offense scoring a TD. Not a good sign before next week's tough game.

My team managed to win by not a bad margin because of interception TDs. But all other "big ones" wins after a strong fight and Paradise Regained even loose to the team which hadn't been considered as play-off strongest candidate. In other leagues I observed the same.

And we have first shocking one in our league with new-old team of Pensylvannia winning with 98-7. Some other surprises happened too.

Penn State is going to be a factor in our conference this year. The biggest surprise is the slow start of Paradise Regained.

I think Jonny is right that too risky gameplan of Germans was decisive to so big difference.

I forgot to change my playbook and used the same passing type gameplan I have used in my last 2 friendlies... obviously, with the new engine only active in friendlies it didn't go so well


Yeah, bad performance - you allowed a FG...
Congrats anyway
