Uh, could possibly Oklahoma's players (as talented as they might be) have just be exhausted? I mean, who doesn't think that OU wins HUGE if they just have a normal sub pattern, right?

Oklahoma is up by 10-15 until 12 min when they run out of time outs and play the rest of the game with all 5 guys in the RED VERY TIRED, and they blow a 13 point lead and lose by 1 as Chicago goes uptempo. Those guys couldn't even run the court they were so tired.

What is the issue here? Aside from the sim messing up your depth chart, if that happened, send a ticket. Otherwise, that was a pretty stupid coaching move. Just running a 7 deep rotation and you would have won easy.

Hey, it's not the Sim's fault that you apparently have no idea how to properly sub players in...

ALTERNATE: Hey, don't blame the sim for the house party/bar fight/orgy that apparently claimed your entire bench for the night.

I think the title of this thread is quite fitting. Everything is alright. You can't game the engine by playing only 5 guys.

OH MY GOD! AN UPSET OCCURED!?? THAT NEVER HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE! THE HIGHER RANKED TEAM ALWAYS WINS! MY GOD LET'S MURDER SOMEBODY OVER THIS TRAVESTY!!!!!!!!!!

That SIM is actually pretty solid. If it were human coached, I wouldn't consider the result an upset. HD has it's engine problems, but IMO, this is not a good example.

Playing everyone 40 minutes a game will do that.

I don't think it's worth even analyzing. Both teams have high 200+ RPIs. I think this is a nonissue other than the fact one of the teams is ranked.

i think the issue here, though not really seen, is that the Oklahoma coach had the players set to sub out at "Fairly Tired" and they never subbed out at all.

It's not really seen 'cause that's not an option.

exactly ...well almost exactly . The coach claims he was usng fairly fresh for everyone. kowboypoop - are you level one customer service or just a common douche?

mully, I'd say there is a 99% chance that it's the coach who did something wrong here.

I'd agree if we were talking about a bad DIII coach like kowboypoop. But for catch to totally switch his settings for a game in the middle of the non-conf schedule is a little odd.

I'm following his CC board to see if he gets something from CS.
