D. User Profiles

E. Playcalling

Flip or reverse a play - R2
Swap packages - O

You can also ask Corso for his advice on what you should call, but don't rely
on him too much. Press [] to do this.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

F. Momentum Meter

EA claims to have this important Momentum Meter (top left of the screen) which
could make or break the game. It is sort of like a tug-of-war type of feature.
If you gain yards, you gain momentum, and if you loose yards, you loose
momentum. Interceptions, fumbles, big hits, and touchdowns can also alter
the momentum.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

G. Impact Players

Every team has three impact players of a variety of positions - even kicker and
punter. These players will make the most impact on the outcome of the game.
Your impact players have white circles under them. When these white circles are
flashing, your player is in the zone and is ready to make a big play.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

H. Home Field Advantage/Match-up Stick

The crowd makes a big difference in your players' abilities. The louder the
croud,
the more your controller is going to shake. This will rattle players on the
away team. Hold R2 and with the right analog, press up, down, left, right to
view the different composers and to see who is rattled.

M. Campus Legend

From high school to college, make the transition. You are trying out
for any football team you can. Pick your apperence, hometown, and
compete at summer camp for a scholarship. Eventually, build yourself
up in ratings.

Choose your major

You have to maintain a 2.0 GPA, so start studying. Pick out of Easy,
medium, and hard majors, each different. Study as much as possible
so you do good on the midterm and final.

Dorm Room

Calender - Tells you what to do, and when
Progress Report - Your GPA, your legend status, etc.
Computer - Stats, Top 25, Standings, etc.
Newsletter - Read what the media is saying about you
Fan Mail - Read what fans are saying about you
Closet - Edit your appearance, add attributes
Traphy Crate - View your accomplishments

You will start no matter how bad you are from your freshman year. In
between games, you have to study to keep a good GPA. After the season,
immediatly start again unless it was your Junior or Senior year; if
it is, you can declare yourself for the draft.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

N. Dynasty Mode

In the preseason, you can customize your schedule and redshirt players.
Practicing really has no purpose that I can find, just getting your
players ready. In-Season recruiting is when you can label the importance
of certain prospects by giving them a certain percentage of your time.
ESPN The Magazine shows the Top 25, Conference Standings, Heisman Race,
etc. Spring Drills is when you play mini games to improve your
players and you can even play a Spring Game. At the end of the season,
you can export your draft class and play as them in Madden 07.
