Got it today. The Statue of Liberty play is in Boise State's playbook. I called it in practice mode...first time...TD for Ian Johnson. I had flashbacks to January.
The best new feature...Jet/Rocket Sweep. They have it from many different formations, just like it is really done. The only one that is called Jet Sweep is from the 5-wide formation, but if you know the play you can tell which plays are variations of it.

I normally buy every other and I do own 07. Is this game worth breaking my every other year trend?

I found the jet is best ran with a TE to help you get the edge.........another thing I'm happy about is the flexbone option game is once again amazing...........07' was tough to get option going, but 08' has it back in the saddle again

Just an interesting little aside--has anyone noticed in ALL of the past releases of this title, that if you create an "academic" team, you have 95-99% white players? I just thought that was interesting.

From gun, it has jet sweep, a PAP, TRIPLE off jet, and a PAP off triple............wonder if Tog's a gamer? That Jet and triple option mixture has to be the thing that breaks him in if he isn't. Oh yeah, the gators have a nice psuedo-SW-------that has jet sweep with it............

I have ran the Jet for the last hour or so.. but havent found Rocket.. can you tell me where that one is? It's not true rocket...I call it rocket because the sweeper goes behind the dive back instead of in front. It's as much buck sweep movement as it is rocket, because the QB makes a handoff instead of a pitch. I guess it's buck sweep to the outside with rocket motion. Check West Virginia's playbook for it. I don't know who else has it yet.

anyone playing on PS2? How is it? That's what I've got. It's great as far as I can tell. I haven't played the PS3 or 360, but never having played those this one is pretty great. Not much difference from last year's game gameplay wise, just the huge playbook additions. Receivers seem to drop more balls than last year also.

The one thing that's killing me in 07 right now is not having a proper jet sweep in there.

Can you create custom plays, or can you just make a playbook with plays they have already made?
I don't know if there was ever a consensus on here about the best game made to date to re-create your own team's playbook. I havne't been able to find an answer on that.

You can customize your playbook in the PS2 and XBOX version by swapping out one formation for another, but there's no actual way to create a play/formation from scratch. You can do that in Madden.

It's pretty cool how they have Nevada's Pistol offense in there. Plus Hawaii's playbook has Jet sweeps and a few play actions off of it, yet I've never seen them run it in real life. lol.
