OT: NCAA Football 18 -- WVU vs VT Sep 3rd 2017 Simulation

I came across this Sports Gaming 1 NCAA Football 18 simulation on youtube. It appears this channel creates game simulations using with customized rosters to match current players. It's 45 minutes long if you have the spare time to watch it and a fan of the NCAA Football video game series. It sure makes me want to fire up the old XB360!

Sweet! Thanks and kudos for producing that screenshot. It helps alot!

I'd roughly multiply that score by 2 as a more hypothetical final score.

M&T Bank Stadium? No FedHex curse. This whole thing is invalid!

Plan for the worst and hope for the best, not the other way around.

Never Forget #1 Overall Seed UVA 54, #64 UMBC 74

Yeah, I watched the whole thing.
Notes:

Jackson is the starter. Grier throws 4 picks. Jackson does 3rd down draw plays like he's Logan Thomas or something. Philips has one catch...for a touchdown.

How was this simulation made?

Don't forget Facyson nabbing 3 INTs. Would not be disappointed if that was prophetic.

Even though it's a video game simulation from the beloved NCAA football series, I had to smile when our digital DBU picked off 4 INTs.

5 WVU turnovers, 4 of them INTs. DBU showing up in simulations.

This just makes me realize how much I miss the annual NCAA football video game

Now finish up them taters; I'm gonna go fondle my sweaters.

TIL that the supposed "savior of WVU football" isn't even halfway decent in a video game.

So with it only being 5 min quarters, I should expect VT to win 51-18? I'm good with that.

Slightly erratic, mostly sane, always a Hokie.

Can someone knowledgeable tell me how to download an updated roster for all the ncaa teams and also what roster is the most accurate to download? This is for NCAA 14 on xbox360.

P.S. I miss ultimate team mode on NCAA14 so much.

Thanks buddy!

NCAA14 is the only reason why I kept my XB360

Truth!

It's also why I've kept my PS3 haha

There's a guy who's gamertag is 'Cajunomics' and he creates fully updated rosters every year including stats and everything, not just names.

If you go into the download roster tab you can search his name and find it. Obviously doesnt have this year up, but it's pretty fun playing with Jerod, the Edmunds, Ford, Sam, etc.

I'm going to be seriously disappointed if that WVU defense holds Fuente to only 17 points.

Careful with those expectations. Never forget that it's been done before...

Oh, I think my disappointment with that outcome was well documented last year

I'm severely disappointed at everyone reporting that there were 4 INTs thrown by Will Grier.

There were 5.

No, I *don't* want to go to the SEC. Why do you ask?

We don't love dem Hoos.

Well that score is certainly disappointing. I mean...a W is a W, but still.

"NCAA Football 18 simulation"? Did I miss something?

Google doesn't say anything, I feel misled.

The rosters have been updated on NCAA 14 to mirror what would be a NCAA 18 release. There is no NCAA 18 or anything

Screencap from about 7 seconds into the video. It doesn't last long enough to fully read it without pausing.

Is there any chance that an NCAA football game can be made again or are we SOL forever? I really miss playing it every year.

Once we get to the point where the players can be freely compensated for their likenesses, EA Sports will make another NCAA Football game. Until then, peanuts.

It seems like rumor float about every year that something could be in the works, but nothing ever comes to fruition. I've pretty much lost hope.
