Are injuries no longer a part of the game?

Nope, they haven't been as long as I've been playing this game (close to 5 years).

Not a popular opinion, but I would like injuries to return.

I used to agree with that. Thought it would add variety to the game, But now I like the idea that your results generally reflect the skill with which you play the game, and injuries would be the opposite of that.

It does add another dimension to the recruiting process, but I am not a fan of the uncertainty. I remember a high D guy back in the day getting injured the week before playoffs, SR, #1 RB in the country. Done for the season....ouch....but, that is the real world after all.

Maybe if it were joined with slightly larger roster sizes...

+1 to adding it back if they added a few more roster spots and 1-2 more red shirts along with early departures of players for the draft. Well, the draft would be ok if they fixed interception rates for under classmen.

I like the idea of injuries, but can also understand the mayhem they make when players would miss a lot of the season. Maybe a compromise would be in-game injuries, causing players to miss a series or a quarter or something like that. That way depth still matters, but injuries won't critically affect the whole season.

Injuries were so random and crippling.

I went back and saw some old tickets of mine with customer service, apparently I had one season where I had 6 guys out at a certain point lol

50 - 3 redshirts = 47

47 - 6 = 41 available players

Cmon lol

Try getting your starting QB injured going into the NC game. I've had that happen !

No disagreement on the inconvenience and bad timing of injuries. I think it puts the Durability trait fully into play for recruiting purposes and development purposes. Or, it could be some random thing (like fumbles right now) which will/would drive me nuts.

Thankfully injuries are long gone and aint returning

If someone wants injuries as part of the game ok, then we also need JC recruits like Basketball Dynasty, and redshirt more than 3 players.

Anyone remember the old RB goes down on the victory kneel? Lol, lost a few that way..... It did allow for more upsets if you game planned correctly.
