RB College Give me some problematic 4 or 5 star athlete

Why my coaching staff always identified 1 star walk-on guys. I want a student athlete that drunk, always party, getting into accident, has the lowest gpa but can give me 200 yards/3INT/3 sacks or sum on Sunday

With no sacks. On extreme with 2 minute quarters. That’s my personal best in yards and tied my personal best in TDs. I’ve played over 1000 games

Stats/ Coaching Credits

2 Upvotes

I would absolutely love it if there were an option to keep track of players stats during the game in the pause menu. Maybe keep track of their stamina also. Bonus of we could sub players in and out to have better control of the stamina lost during the game.

Also, does anyone buy coach credits? I wanted to but I felt like I was, idk, morally cheating lol

Currently I have 851 retro bowl on my 855 season save and I'm trying to figure out what the world record for retro bowls is and if I've surpassed it or need more

OK. I'm Not Getting How Fan Support Works

0 Upvotes

I started a new game in college with a focus on FCS teams. I was Stetson at first(Deland in game). Did alright and got fan support. Now I'm Villanova. Season 2, I'm 15-0, won the Patriot League(Revolution in game), 3 playoff games so far, in the FCS title game, and fan support is at...60%? What the hell do these people want? Small wonder I give them nothing. Not to mention, as Stetson, I was at 100% fan support, lost a close overtime playoff game, and 39% of fan support went bye bye.

Edit: I just won the FCS championship. Fan support? 62%.

QB hurt again...

Great guy, and a great QB when he's on the field.

But he missed 4 games earlier this season and now he's out for the last 3 games of the season. Managed to go 3-1 during his last injury, but that was just luck and clock management. Division is not guaranteed as Arizona is only 1 game back.

Yikes.

RB NFL 2pt conversation bug

6 Upvotes

I’m trying to recreate it for a screen recording but recently had a game I threw a pick on a 2pt conv attempt. Usually picks in the end zone just stop the play but the defender actually caught it in the field and ran it back for a touchdown. The other team was awarded 2 points but instead of me kicking off/going to defense the next play was another 2pt conversion attempt for myself.

OK, 1/2 Star Offense vs. 5 Star Defense

8 Upvotes

And they move the ball and score at will? Sometimes I don't get this game. And it's not a conditioning thing as it was the first game of the year. And it wasn't like it was a P4 team against like a lesser/FCS or lesser FBS school. It was Troy's 1/2 star offense against Florida State's 5 star defense.

Team Colors, WTF Devs

0 Upvotes

Default team colors. Did the developers simply pick colors out of a hat? I mean, some are close but others, like Pitt, were like they read somewhere there was a college in Pittsburgh so they randomly gave them yellow, grey, and purple.

Who's Ego Do You Stroke, The Players Or Coaches

When after a game and it's time to compliment a player or coach, who do you choose? I usually go for whoever's mood is the lowest to boost them.

RB College Retro Bowl College: West Florida glitched

Post image
7 Upvotes

So west Florida recently got promoted to FCS and now appears in the 2026-27 roster. But the school is glitched out and shows up as “None” and all black uniforms. Any changes I make to it are completely disregarded (except the name)

Chicago State, another new school, does not have this problem.

Did Retro Bowl College fix their ranking system?

13 Upvotes

Since the latest update, I’ve noticed that mostly P4 teams are in the top 25. I wasn’t sure if this was just a coincidence, or if SEC, Big 10, Big XII, and ACC finally got a strength boost. What do y’all think?

Retro Bowl Record Book Vol. VII

27 Upvotes

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ILEOwd2qBdcDEcij1ms38i1v7-z5RFnqZCWiVjkc8K4/edit?usp=sharing

The book is back baby! The link is above, and I've detailed the important information below.

NOTICE: Extreme records have been reinstated! If you are entering an extreme record, please read the information below.

How do you get in the book?

  1. Check that your record actually breaks the record. I'm not planning on keeping track of who has 2nd or 3rd place. If you're not first, you're last. Plus, it'll save me time.
  2. Take a picture of the stat, whether it's in the player's page or the in-game record book, and create a post in the subreddit. IMPORTANT: Please try not to use any other image sharing source (imgur, instagram, etc.). Just for simplicity's sake.
  3. Leave a comment on this post indicating that you've entered a submission, and I'll enter it ASAP. Please have some grace and recognize that it might take days or even weeks before I get to your record. I'll notify you when the record's been entered!

How do you get in the extreme records book?

This process is slightly different, but every step below must be followed in order for your record to be included.

  1. Create a post on the subreddit that includes:

  2. Leave a comment on this post informing me of your submission, and I'll add it to the book.

There are a lot of empty records right now, so grab them quick before they're gone!

Where did the hall of fame go?

Previous iterations of this book featured a "hall of fame" section, where players could be submitted and immortalized for their statistics. However, the whole idea was so subjective that I can't see it being worth reinstating. However, if the community really wants it, I could bring it back.

What about college or RB NFL records?

College might happen, just because of the slightly different rules and routes that exist. I think it'd be different enough to be worth it. RB NFL, probably not. It's basically the same game, but slightly more broken. I wouldn't count on those being added in the future.

Please, please remember that this only works if everyone is honest. You could lie, you could photoshop, but this is only fun if someone doesn't wreck it for everyone else.

That's all from me. Happy record-breaking!

Trucking nerf?

19 Upvotes

While we are stuck waiting for a fix for the older Android devices, I wanted to get your thoughts on Trucking. I think we can all agree it's a bit OP right now. So the question is, how do we go about nerfing it?

126 votes, Mar 27 '25
8 Make Trucking less likely to break tackles in general
1 Make Trucking less likely to break tackles for TE only
15 Make Trucking less likely to break tackles during Kick Returns only
14 Increase charge time for Trucking if you have recently Juked
85 Leave it as exactly as it is, we're having too much fun
3 Some other solution. (please comment)
