one of my teams in particular went to the final four the last year of the old engine, I went up-tempo almost all the time using my team speed against everyone.  With the new engine it seems like my guys foul out more when I go up-tempo or even normal.  what factors in to fouls, defensive rating? speed? athleticism?  I feel like I have to slow it down to keep my players in the game

I think that you are referring to your Wingate team. The two guys with the most fouls have DEF ratings of 5 and 29, so that is actually a good thing with the new engine. DEF rating may actually matter.

You have played a tough schedule (3 of your 5 opponents have been ranked) and 4 of 5 have been on the road. You are averaging only 2.4 more fouls than your opponent so that is not really that bad.

Also playing press will cause you to have more fouls

thanks merlin, but do you think I should continue to go slowdown and will that help out the foul situation?

IQ also plays a factor, although yours would seem to be okay at this point.
