I purchased the popular NCAA Football '13 video game when it was released almost two weeks ago and I've been looking for a way to write it off as a business expense ever since. Then I remembered TJ having the same dilemma last year, when he used the game to simulate Kentucky's season. So I did the same thing for 2012. Here are three simulations to project UK football's 2012 season, directly from the EA Sports football game. (Don't take it too seriously. It's just for fun, people.) -------------------------------------- 1st Simulation (4-8) Schedule/Results at Louisville, L 24-41 vs. Kent State, L 16-20 vs. Western Kentucky, W 31-20 at Florida, L 3-35 vs. South Carolina, L 21-33 vs. Mississippi State, W 31-19 at Arkansas, L 7-33 vs. Georgia, L 21-35 at Missouri, L 3-27 vs. Vanderbilt, W 52-21 vs. Samford, W 56-7 at Tennessee, L 13-20 Passing Maxwell Smith: 166-358, 2072 yds, 20 TDs, 15 INTs Rushing Coshik Williams: 153 att, 810 yds, 3 TDs Raymond Sanders III: 110 att., 605 yds, 4 TDs Receiving La'Rod King: 58 rec, 810 yds, 6 TDs Tyler Robinson: 45 rec, 471 yds, 9 TDs -------------------------------------- 2nd Simulation (4-8) Schedule/Results at Louisville, L 34-45 vs. Kent State, W 28-14 vs. Western Kentucky, W 40-16 at Florida, L 13-14 vs. South Carolina, L 19-23 vs. Mississippi State, L 10-37 at Arkansas, L 31-38 vs. Georgia, L 17-24 at Missouri, L 24-27 vs. Vanderbilt, W 49-28 vs. Samford, W 34-17 at Tennessee, L 17-23 Passing Maxwell Smith: 102-226, 1334 yds, 9 TDs, 6 INTs Rushing Coshik Williams: 140 att, 722 yds, 6 TDs Raymond Sanders III: 104 att., 585 yds, 5 TDs Receiving La'Rod King: 65 rec, 1077 yds, 6 TDs Anthony Kendrick: 44 rec, 490 yds, 4 TDs -------------------------------------- 3rd Simulation (5-7) Schedule/Results at Louisville, L 21-35 vs. Kent State, W 34-7 vs. Western Kentucky, W 41-21 at Florida, W 41-31 vs. South Carolina, L 7-51 vs. Mississippi State, L 14-52 at Arkansas, L 17-27 vs. Georgia, L 7-41 at Missouri, W 34-22 vs. Vanderbilt, L 21-33 vs. Samford, W 41-10 at Tennessee, L 14-41 Passing Maxwell Smith: 169-346, 2126 yds, 19 TDs, 9 INTs Rushing Raymond Sanders III: 150 att., 790 yds, 9 TDs Josh Clemons: 81 att, 413 yds, 3 TDs Receiving La'Rod King: 62 rec, 846 yds, 8 TDs Tyler Robinson: 47 rec, 478 yds, 3 TDs --------------- No bowl games. A loss to Kent State. Please be wrong.
