NCAA Football 10 and NCAA Basketball 09 are by far the most intelligent and competitive college sports games developed by EA Sports. To be able to compete on the highest level against either a friend or against the computer, you will need to develop a game play strategy and take advantage of secrets within the game.
Regarding NCAA Football 10, when playing against the computer, it is imperative that you alternate your play selection to prevent predictability. If you focus your entire offense on running off the right tackle or throwing to your slot receiver, the computer will handle you with ease. Be sure to develop a strong mix between run and pass to ensure you see a neutral or favorable defense.
Asking Corso for advice during the game is also a seldom used secret. Corso will naturally give you plays that mix up your selection, and will often present plays to you that have been set up earlier in the game which can often lead to a big play. When you are at the line of scrimmage, feel free to use receive audibles to get your receiver to run an alternate route. For example, if you see a linebacker blitzing, run a slant with your slot receiver to take advantage of the open gap.
When playing NCAA Basketball 09, the best thing you can do to beat your opponent is look for favorable matchups. Before the game run a quick scouting report on your opponents roster to look for open holes. If you notice the other team has a slow footed center, trying playing a tall forward at the center position to take advantage. If you know you are playing a zone defense, you should run more fast breaks to prevent the defense from being properly set up.
