The WB offense is my favorite in real life and I tested it extensively in this game in both version 2.0 and in 3.1. I proved to myself that a committed coach could build a WB team and reach dynasty status, but it takes a total commitment to WB only and WB forever in order to work. It takes at least twice as long to build a winning WB team as it does any other offense (At least for me) and it is always somewhat vulnerable because by nature it shortens the game, which leads to closer scores and the chance for last minute heroics by the opposition. Also, just like in real life, the WB is not normally a come from behind type offense.
In my experiments, I tried to make the WB a viable passing offense and was somewhat successful, and I do believe that this can be accomplished in this game. Successfully accomplishing this would give a WB team that come from behind dimension that could potentially add a lot more wins. It would also make the WB a lot harder to game plan for, which would have been a big plus for me. But having a run team powerful enough to gain significant yardage against top teams, and also having the great pass receiving capability got to be very tricky and complicated. I was continuously having to rearrange formations, playbooks and depth charts, sometimes in the middle of a game. There was just not enough game controls available to do everything that I needed to permit limited interaction on my part. With the current built-in limitations on formations, playbooks and depth chart lists there was just not room enough for everything, which should be an indication of the potential for the offense in the hands of a dedicated coach. Since it was costing me so much time and effort, and because I stayed confused a good part of the time lol, I just dropped the experiment at just under championship level.
I would recommend the WB to an experienced game planning coach with a lot of patience and who could commit to just running WB, if you are going to use other offenses, even in different worlds and at different schools you need to be good at multitasking. I couldn't keep things straight and thus I began to make both game planning and recruiting errors at my other schools lol. I love the WB though and I would really enjoy seeing someone put the effort into learning how to dominate with it in this game, I'm certain that it is possible for the right coach, given enough time and with the right roster.
