NCAA2. Teams
============
All 120 Division 1-A (FBS) Schools are featured in this game. There are also
about 8 FCS Teams, but they can only be played in Dynasty and Road to Glory
Modes. Each team has their own Playbook and run one of eight offensive schemes.
The different offensive schemes are Air Raid, Option, Spread, Multiple, Pro,
One Back, Pistol, and Run and Shoot. The letter grades provided for each team
are taken from the Preseason Polls in the first season of Dynasty Mode. The
number values for Overall, Offense, and Defense are taken from the Team Select
portion of Dynasty. The number values help to determine which team has the
advantage in the Overall, Offense, and Defense categories. Special Teams values
are not provided. The Stars represent the school's prestige level. The more
Stars, the more prestigious the school is the easier it is to recruit better
players in Dynasty Mode.

===================
NCAA3. Dynasty Mode
===================
In Dynasty Mode, you can take your favorite schools through seasons and
seasons, coaching them about as long as Joe Paterno has been at the helm of
Penn State.
Starting Out
------------
When you first start a new Dynasty Mode, you will first need to choose your
team. You are able to choose from all 120 Division 1-A programs. Whatever team
you choose as your favorite team will be the team that first pops up. You can
control up to 12 different schools at once, but you will only be able to earn
Dynasty Mode-related Trophies if you control only one school. Once you choose
your first school, you will be taken to the Dynasty Settings menu. To add more
teams, scroll down to the User Team(s) option and press the X button. You will
be able to add up to 11 programs to the one you have already selected to
control. Also at the Settings Menu, you can import one of your TeamBuilder
schools that you created. You can also move teams around in Custom Conferences,
for those who may want to turn the Big Ten into the Big 12. Once you are ready,
you can start your Dynasty.
Preseason
---------
Here you can get started on Recruiting, and play with the roster for the
upcoming season. When you first try Recruiting, and this will happen every
Preseason, you will be asked if you would like to create any recruits yourself.
If you choose not to, you can skip to choosing the players you wish to start
recruiting. The middle option on the far left side once you start Recruiting is
Team Overview. It will tell you what positions you will need to fill by next
season and how many players you need at that position. It is always a good idea
to at least try and recruit one or two players at those positions.
Now, to start looking at recruits. This is where Prestige comes into play. Each
school has a Prestige level from 1 to 6, 6 being the best. The better your
school's Prestige, the better chances you have of landing better recruits. For
example, USC has a better chance of landing 5-Star recruits than Washington,
and in bigger numbers. If your school has a Prestige of 5 or 6 Stars, you will
find plenty of recruits on the ESPNU 150 list. Usually, this list will be
comprised of only 4- and 5-Star recruits. When looking at recruits to add to
your Board, look for recruits who have a green circle next to their rank. Any
recruit with a green circle means that they have at least some interest in
playing for you. Underneath their personal stats (Name, Position, Hometown),
will be the Top 3 school that player is interested in. If you see your school's
name on his Top 3 list, you should add them to your Board. Your Board can only
have 35 names on it at any time, so choose wisely. Any open spots on the
Recruit Board will be filled automatically once the season starts.
You can also set your Depth Chart so that the players you want starting do
start. You can also Redshirt players on the Preseason Menu. Before you start
the season, you can also look at your schedule and change it around anyway you
like. The only parts of your schedule that you can change are the
out-of-conference games (Unless your Independent and have no Conference). For
the out-of-conference games, you can change the opponent you play that week,
where you play, and which week you face them. Any school that is scheduled to
play a school from Division 1-AA (FCS), will face one of the FCS schools from
the same region. All games against FCS schools will be Home games for your
team. Once everything is the way you want it to be, go ahead start the Season
Regular Season
--------------
Each week, you can play the game for that week (Provided it isn't a bye week),
work on recruiting, look at who's in the running for the Heisman, and keep up
on the Top 25. Recruiting players has changed compared to NCAA 10. When you
call players, you will be able to choose how long you wish to talk with them.
It can range from a 10-minute, one topic call to a 60-minute, six topic call.
However, choose the recruits you wish to call and the time spent on the call
wisely; you are only allowed 10 hours each week. If you advance to the next
week without doing recruiting, the computer will do the recruiting for you, as
long as it is set that way. Once you make it through the Regular Season, it is
time for the Bowl Games
To be eligible to play in a Bowl game, you need to win at least 6 games. The
more games you win, the better Bowl game you get into. There are 34 Bowl Games,
including the BCS National Championship Game. You are able to play each and
every Bowl game, even if your team isn't in it. Under the ESPN headline, there
is an option to see all the Bowl Games. If you play and win all 34 Games, you
will receive the "Treasure Hunter" Trophy. You don't have to play the entire
game, you can Super Sim to the 4th Quarter, play as the team that is winning,
and as long as that team wins, you will get credit for the win. As long as you
are rewarded with the Bowl Trophy, it will count. After playing in the Bowl
Games, you will be asked about your job as coach. If you performed well, you
may be granted an extension. If you didn't perform to the expectations set at
the beginning of the season, you may not be asked about an extension. Other
schools can also offer you the coaching job at their school
Off-Season
----------
When you first advance to the Off-Season, your first task is to deal with are
players who are leaving. All the Seniors will graduate and can't be brought
back. Juniors and Sophomores who try to leave will either go to the Pro Draft
or Transfer to another school. You can send anywhere from 10 to 60 minutes
persuading them to stay. You will only have 10 hours max to work with, but you
shouldn't have too many who try to go Pro or Transfer. If a player chooses to
leave, there is nothing else you can do to convince to stay. If a player says
that he hasn't made up his mind yet, you can spend more time with him to
convince him to stay. If you can convince a Junior or Sophomore with an overall
of 95 or higher to stay, you will receive the Trophy "Don't Call It a
Comeback".
After dealing with players who are leaving, you will be able to see any players
who want to transfer to your school. After processing Transfer Requests, you
will then have 6 weeks to convince recruits to come to your school. Just like
recruiting in the Regular Season, you will have 10 hours to work with each
week. You will also have the amount of scholarships remaining that you did at
the end of the Season. After the 6th week, you will arrive at Signing Day,
where you can review the recruits that committed to your school. You can also
see how your school's draft class ranked among all the other schools.
After Signing Day, you will be allowed to change your player's positions. If
you still have any open positions, try to fill them using players from
positions where there are plenty of back-ups. You will then be able to view
Training Results and see which players got better over the Off-Season. Then you
will have to cut players, only if you have more than 70 players on your roster.
If you don't, you don't need to cut anyone. If you do, it is recommended to cut
players with lower overalls from positions with a few back-ups. Once you are
down to 70 players, you can advance to the Preseason.
=========================
NCAA4. Road To Glory Mode
=========================
In Road To Glory, you can take one player through his entire college career.
Throughout his career, ESPN analyst Erin Andrews will chronicle your
Superstar's highlights in the Road To Glory segment.
Choosing the Superstar
----------------------
You can either choose to be a current college player, or you can create your
own Superstar. If you choose to be a current player, you will become that
player at that point in his career (If he is a Junior, you will play his Junior
and Senior year). If you choose to create your own Superstar, you will be able
to choose who he is, where he is from, and everything else about him. You will
then enter the State Playoffs in your home state. If you do well in each game,
your own Prestige will increase. If you win the State Playoffs and do well in
each game, you will most likely be a 5-Star recruit. You will then need to
choose which school you w
