Easy pennants
Create numerous profiles and get your five pennants at the
beginning. Then, risk your pennants against the other controller.
Set the game to overtime and no wind, and kick a FG with the
profile you want to win the pennants. When the other team gets the
ball, punt and its all over.
Easy receiving
If you throw the ball to one of your receivers repeatedly, the
defense will start double teaming that player, making it nearly
impossible to throw to him. When they start playing extra defense
on him, go to the depth chart and switch him to a different
receiving position. For example, if he was the first string, put
him at second; if he was second string, put him at first. He will
still be in the plays, but on the other side of the field with one
single man coverage, so you can keep running up the score. Repeat
this again if they start the coverage.
Easy plays
Go to "Settings", then go down to "AI Settings". Put it on "CPU"
and set their offense and defense all the way down. Then, switch
it to "Human" and put your offense and defense all the way up.
This should make plays very easy.
Punt return touchdown
Select Punt Middle as your play, then take your three middle
lineman and bring them in front and on each side of your returner
(or get as close as possible). The other team's offense will block
men that are not there, and you will have three extra blockers.
Announce names instead of numbers
If you would like to hear the announcers call out your teams names
rather than their numbers, all you have to do is put their roster
in. Go to the options screen, go to "Edit Rosters" and insert the
names under "Player Info". After you insert them, play a game and
your team's names will be announced.
Cause fumble on kickoffs
To to make your opponent fumble the ball on kickoffs, keep kicking
to the same player. Eventually he will fatigue and start fumbling
the ball in the third and fourth quarters. You can also kick to
the other side of the field and try to surprise the other
receiver. If you catch him off guard, he will sometimes fumble.
Get ball on kickoff
Use the following trick to get you the ball 95% of the time on
kickoff. Set the game to easy play with penalties off, then choose
the onside kick. Move the kick off arrow all the way left and
down. You will hardly kick the ball -- only get the power to the
end of the yellow line (it is acceptable if it goes slightly
past), then hit the button again and try to get it in the yellow.
When playing a human player, call for Kickoff Left/Right then,
which ever you choose, set to kick the ball in that direction.
However, make it go as far up as possible. After the ball is
kicked your team will run to where the ball will land. If you play
the CPU, they will almost always call for a fair catch. The ball
does not have to touch anyone on the return team. You can run up
and catch it (if the kick is powerful enough).
Kickoff inside ten
Make sure that your kicker can at least make it to the endzone on
kickoff. Then, go to the settings section and change all the
penalties to off. When you kick it off, kick the ball at maximum
power, let the bar go, and press it again. You should kick it to
the left of the endzone out of bounds inside the ten yard line.
Where it goes out of bounds at is the location where the other
team will start at.
Get the ball possession back
Enter the game settings screen and turn penalties off. Play a
game. When you kick off to the other team, do an onside kick. When
you kick it, quickly jump on the ball. This may take some practice.
Skip final loading sequence
Press C-stick Left to skip the last part of the game's loading.
Earning campus challenge credits and running up your score/stats
Create your own juggernaut school/team. Edit the roster so your
team is filled with studs. Enter season mode with your team and
under the preseason options, schedule as many 1-AA teams as
possible. Set your playing time for 15 minutes and enjoy the ride.
If you have the unlimited time-out cheat, you can use it here and
stop the clock after any play finishes in-bounds. This will give
you more time to compile stats. Doing this may increase your
game time to over 90 minutes (and possibly 120) of "real-time". If
you are going to use the time-out cheat, take a 15-minute break
when you hit the half time point of your game. Also, note that
campus challenge points are awarded based on your level of play.
Heisman is the hardest level, but you also get increased value on
your campus challenge credits.
Maximum player status
Select "Rosters" in the options menu, then "Edit Player". Select
their ratings icon and you can change every column up to 99.
All out team
Go to the rosters and select any created or a regular team. Select
the players. This will give you a list of selections. Select
ratings, and from there you can pump up your player. You can also
select the appearance and make him tall and big. It may take
awhile, but you could pump up your entire team. This requires
patience. Choose practice mode to try the team.
