Have the #%(!@*U$!@# Fumbles been fixed? It was absolutely ridiculous both online and in the actual gameplay how often one fumbled. I fumbled my first 4 possessions online once, with my running bakc with a 92 carry rating and covering up most of the time. The average of 2-3 fumbles a game on 5 minutes quarters is the equivalent of 809 fumbles on a full game. Ridiculous. That's only fumbles you LOSE. On AA difficulty Dynasty, you fumble 4-5 times a game seemingly on 5 minute quarters. It makes the game unplayable at times. Has it been fixed? One BIG question that hasn’t been answered in any previews I’ve seen.

I've played the NCAA Football series since 99, and NCAA 08(XBOX 360) was the only time I've traded-in or stopped playing one of the games. Although, 08 was my first next-gen experience with the series. Has 09 taken steps to becoming an enjoyable game on the next-gen consoles? Pasta,

Pasta, can you give us an update or tell us where we can follow the online dynasty? Alot of us are very interested in this so we can get an idea on how well it works and, most importantly, if the lag has been fixed. Thanks for all your hard work!

You could on 07, but they scrapped that on 08. Since Notre Dame doesn't officially give out redshirts, they screwed up how much eligibility was left on a lot of players.
