I just finished playing my first season in dynasty mode of NCAA Football 2009. I went through the off-season and here is what my lineup looks like to start the 2009 season along with all the player ratings and previous year stats. You have to keep in mind that I changed the non-conference schedule to play tougher teams and I used the fullbacks during short-yardage situations.
I guess you could say Bradford had a "sophomore slump" with only 2,000 yards and 8 interceptions, but at the same time, I pounded the ball out behind the terrific offensive line, and Bradford actually completed nearly 80% of his passes which is pretty amazing.
Demarco Murray had a big sophomore season with nearly 2,500 all-purpose yards even with an injury in the first game of the season.
QB: 1- Sam Bradford 97 (174-220 2,044 yards 23 TDs 8 picks 7 rushing TDs)
2- Landry Jones 84 (Redshirted)
3- 5 star recruit 81
RB: 1- Demarco Murray 98 (210 carries 1,224 yards 16 TDs 18 catches 258 yards 3 TDs 926 yards returning despite missing non-conference games with injury)
2- Jermie Calhoun 91 (70 carries 287 yards 4 TDs)
3- Chris Brown 89 (20 carries 76 yards 1 TD 4 catches 39 yards)
3- Justin Johnson 79 (redshirted)
4- 4 star recruit 79
FB: 1- Matt Clapp 91 (51 carries 206 yards 1 TD 8 catches 41 yards 1 TD)
2- Brody Eldridge (9 carries 24 yards)
WR: 1- Adron Tennell 93 (19 catches 265 yards 1 TD)
2- Jameel Owens 85 (Redshirted)
3- Ryan Broyles 84 (10 catches 161 yards 2 TDs)
TE: 1- Jermaine Gresham 98 (42 catches 406 yards 6 TDs 7 pancakes)
2- Brody Eldridge 86 (10 catches 135 yards 2 TDs 6 pancakes)
3- James Hanna 80 (redshirted)
LT: 1- Cory Brandon 81 (5 pancakes 0 sacks given up)
2- Alex Williams 76 (no stats)
LG: 1- Steven Good 83 (Redshirted)
2- Kody Cooke 80 (4 pancakes 0 sacks given up)
C: 1- Jason Hannan 84 (0 pancakes 2 sacks given up)
2- Ben Habern 79 (redshirted)
RG: 1- Brian Simmons 86 (4 pancakes 0 sacks given up)
2- 4 star recruit 78
RT: 1- Trent Williams 82 (3 pancakes 0 sacks given up)
2- Donald Stevenson 75 (no stats)
So there it is... the projected 2009 lineup according the a video game. Even though it's a video game, it can still help give insight to what may come later, so I guess we'll have to see how things will really pan-out this season. By the way OU won the championship and hauled in the #1 recruiting class. Hopefully the real OU team can do as well as their simulated counterparts.
