  1. Who cares if you get them exactly right? You're right, no one can, but you do the best you can as a pre-season or early season rom. That's why last year I did mine after the season so it was clear. I just want to play NCAA TSB now with the current teams. And, I don't see the point of the best schools in history to determine this year's rom but if you made an All-Time rom then that would be the way to go. I do like the idea of pleasing the TBorg fans of college football, within reason, and make a rom that people want to play because their team is on the rom. I like Florida, Buck is a Kansas State guy, Knobbe is a Nebraska fan (BYU ouch), and if Baron Von Lector likes Syracuse (poor bastard) then so be it we add them too. Hell, Keirre can even have his beloved Wolfpack too!
  2. QB: Don McPherson, Marvin Graves, Donovan McNabb RB: Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, Larry Csonka, Daryl Johnston WR: Marvin Harrison, Art Monk, Rob Moore, Quadry Ismail TE: John Mackey, Chris Gedney Not a bad Tecmo lineup for an All-Time Syracuse offense! Jim Brown and John Mackey some might say the best RB and TE ever.
  3. This almost made me spit my beer all over my laptop! Elway, I love the idea of an All-Time NCAA Rom and your list is almost perfect. Although, I agree with Keirre in that I want to do a 2015-16 rom first, well, as long as it has my Gators are on it that is!
  4. Monster, did you know your Fantasy Index this year does not have Defense, OL, DL, LB, DB, Team Summary or your Reno League Pages like your 2015's edition did? It was 6 page last year and this year it's 2. Love all of it and was wondering if you were going to add those later. Thanks!
  5. I think we can come to an agreement with a little compromise if this is a collaborative effort. Keirre's list is a good start as is my list. BleacherReport already made a Top25 for Week 2 for what it's worth. They have most of the teams we have. Well, except for NC ST! Keirre, did you go to NC ST? Do you both have the Phil Steele 2015 Magazine? If you do, I won't bother posting the position rankings as you have them. I can make an Excel sheet pretty quick with what he has done. In my opinion, his magazine is our best source for ranking the positions. Keirre, do you agree with his work? If not, what would you use? In your 2 months of research, what sources were you using? Was that research for player, team rankings, or both?
  6. If you only have 2 divisions for SEC and 1 for each of the other power conferences then you have 7 and the 8th could be the smaller schools. I always consider throwing ND into the BigTen like the should be! haha ND could be in the Independent conference with Boise, Cincinnati, Ga Southern (WKY and TOL would be out). Boise could be thrown into the Pac Ten too as they probably should be anyway which would open up a spot for a smaller school in their IND division spot but then you'd have to cut a Pac Ten school to add Boise. The ACC is a mess. They should almost be booted off the rom except for FSU and maybe CLM. In my NCAA rom last year, I had two teams that were identical aka even (Army & Navy) and added the worst possible TSB Roster squad that I made Michigan. Those ideas are fun and I'm just throwing them out there as ideas. Maybe GA Southern is the worst possible. We could make the ProBowl rosters even too. My friends that I play with like to play with even squads.
  7. I don't think we're here to broaden people's horizons about college football. Really? I think the majority of people want to play a game with their favorite teams on it is all. Most people would want to play the game with the traditional rivalries on there I would think. Florida vs FSU and GA for example. And, a lot of people have Clemson winning the ACC this season and there is no way they're going 6-6. Adding schools from outside the big conferences is fine. So, those are your 32 teams and that's it?
  8. I did not know this... And, his Tecmo pic kind of looks like your Majik man! haha
  9. Okay great - that saves time. Are you dead set on those teams? I would say Clemson replaces NC State for sure. Also, maybe another BigTen team replaces Penn State. I know Penn State may be better by the end of the season but not having Michigan on a college game seems wrong. I feel the same about Texas. Sure, OK ST will probably be better at season's end but it's just weird. Buck may want Kansas State too. I hope you'd consider Florida over Arkansas for the SEC division. Having this group below also means a lot of traditional teams would be left out but I like the idea of 4 maybe. GA SOU running the Triple Option makes me Tecmo happy even though I'm still bitter they came into the Swamp and shocked my Gators. Boise st- Mountain West Champ Cincinnati- AAC Champ Toledo- MAC Champ Western KY- Conference USA Champ Georgia Southern- Sun Belt Champ
  10. Here's how I grouped them by conference...
  11. I will post the position rankings later today after I cut the lawn. Bodom has volunteered to be a Game Tester. Maybe we could recruit Keithisgood and/or Elway to help with the graphics/helmets. Hopefully they will read this! Buck, what rom do you think we should use as the base? My NCAA rom from last year is super vanilla, just like the original and is glitch free. I used the base 32 team rom from here. I did a lot of NCAA specific graphics too. Keirre, your list of teams isn't in any order I'm guessing and was just a brainstorm list especially with Ohio State at #23. I think we need to iron out what teams are going in and are not. I need Florida on the list (davefmurray back me up here!) and love that they should be one of the worst teams on the game and just like I enjoy being the Patriots on the original game I would love that challenge. Penn State lost to Temple, they're out! haha I think putting them in groups of 4 from each conference we want is they way to go. The majority of people playing the game probably want the big programs over the smaller schools even though I'm a FCS fan. The Option, Two Point Conversion and College Playoffs Bracket come to mind too. Sorry I'm all over the place with this post. I'm just so excited! Here are the teams I used in my rom from last season. 1 OSU (SF) 2 ORE (PHI) 3 TCU (NYG) 4 ALA (BUF) 5 MSU (CHI) 6 FSU (HOU) 7 GT (KC) 8 BAY (HOU2) 9 GA (RAI) 10 UCL (TB) 11 MIZ (MIA) 12 MSS (DEN) 13 WIS (DET) 14 ASU (RAM) 15 CLM (WAS) 16 BSE (CLE) 17 ARZ (DAL) 18 KST (MIN) 19 OLE (SD) 20 AUB (CIN) 21 NEB (PHX) 22 ND (GB) 23 DUK (SEA) 24 MIN (NO) 25 LSU (PIT) 26 OKL (NYJ) 27 UF (ATL) 28 PSU (NE) 29 IOW (IND) 30 NAV (EVEN) 31 ARM (EVEN) 32 MIC (WORST)
  12. I'm so excited to play this rom and print out the magazine, appendix and playbooks. Thanks for everything!
  13. Ok, so like Elway, I read the thread and was confused a bit. Then, I saw your reply to him saying, "All players were picked using a franchise value formula with statistics, franchise input, and franchise fan input." So, how then is Bo still not in the game as he has franchise input and fan input I would think? Curious is all. Marcus Allen, Mark Van Eeghen, Clem Daniels (?), Napoleon Kaufman, and Marv Hubard (?) are OAK Top 5 Rushers All-Time. Heck, Darren McFadden is 6th! Bo comes in at 14th but I think most would argue that he had more value to the franchise than 4 of those named. Granted, I don't know your formula exactly. And again, just curious. I do love the idea of this rom and will play it for sure.
  14. I think we should start a thread separate from this one titled, "NCAA 2015-16" and maybe we ask Knobbe if he wants to give it the official TBorg stamp of approval as the official NCAA rom from here. I was going to start a thread for the rom but actually wasn't sure where! I'm rusty around here. Download Support says for finished roms so I decided to wait. I like that idea rom of a 0, 1, 2, 3 and grouping them that way. I have Phil Steele's magazine and a few others that rank the teams we will probably want on the rom and they even have them sorted and ranked by positions. I would gladly type them up and post them in the rom thread if you guys want. And, we could brainstorm about teams to have in the rom too. I'm biased about your idea to add FBS teams to the FCS group as a single division but think the majority would want just the big boys in the rom.
  15. Can't wait! Are you going to do another Preview Magazine, Fantasy Appendix and Playbook Plan this year too? I loved those. Can you tell us who is your new cover boy? Oh, you used the entire Dallas OL for the cover, great idea, well done. ;-]
  16. Cool idea! 1985 was a great year all the way around. Thanks as always!
  17. I want that main screen pic on a black t-shirt! TecmoBowlers you listening?
  18. Where and how are you playing it? On GameCube or an emulator? My nephew might be the biggest Resident Evil fan on Earth and I'd love to hook him up with a new version!
  19. I played this with a buddy last night and we had a lot of fun. Some of the uniform usage is off a little but it just may be me being OCD. I like dark vs white jerseys all the time. PHI-DAL, NYG-IND both in white jerseys. SEA-NE, CIN-CLE both dark jerseys that are close and it's kind of annoying. I'm probably going to tweak them myself but thought I'd give you a heads up. Cool rom. Thanks for doing a post SB release!
  20. I use Nestopia and FCEUX only. Try them instead. Go here... http://tecmobowl.org/files/category/20-emulators/
  21. I'm SEC biased so I'm cool with you giving the Pac12 many shafts and especially U$C. So, we have BIG12 and SEC covered -- who is doing the other 3 conferences? And, are you saying my NCAA14 rom deserves more hate?! haha
  22. I probably already have it (from monster collection at tecmosbcom) and will look and see but you can send it to me. Thanks! I think for next year we should make a team of people to make a rom that is top quality and can be the official NCAA rom for this site. davefmurray made a college rom and put it on a cart that I haven't played YET but guess would be top quality. Maybe we should start a thread to see who is interested in joining the creation team and brainstorm what needs to be included. Knobbe may have a thread started already I don't know. Having people do their favorite team's roster and depth chart would be ideal and would help spread out the work. You (LSU), Knobbe (NEB), buck (KST), me (UF), some ahole (FSUx), some butthead (ALA), another loser (GA), bodom (BC), etc I would like to do a pre-season rom instead of waiting for the end of year rom even though that's usually best in my opinion. It seems to me that releasing a rom after football season doesn't get as much love as a pre-season rom as everyone has football fever before the season kicks off.
  23. I love this rom. The playbooks make it. If you don't mind, I may use this for my NCAA15 next year! Look who got the last laugh!
  24. Keirre, I seriously considered asking you if you wanted to combine our efforts as I knew you'd be up for it but I just didn't. After I was pretty much done, I saw your recent thread too about paying people to make a NCAA rom which made me laugh because somewhere in the archives I think I made that same comment long ago. Knobbe told me he was also interested in doing one for the site. Maybe next year we do a real one with all the bells and whistles. I don't know how to do the high end stuff and don't have the time to commit to that but as part of a team I could contribute. I've done all I'm going to do with this rom so there will not be any updates. I want to play your NCAA rom so post it!
