Dominate CFB Dynasty

Thumper LB to EDGE has been one of my favorite position changes in CFB 27. EDGEs come in extremely weak in this year’s game, while Thumpers usually come in strong and pretty athletic. So you’re starting with the two things that cost the most to upgrade. Then you just spend your points upgrading the cheaper stuff.

Rainmaker and Visionary are free to unlock in CFB 27. So why does your next upgrade suddenly cost more? With a basic coach, upgrading Recruiter costs 50 points. Unlock Rainmaker or Visionary and it jumps to 75. Unlock both and it’s 100. Here’s how to get the same build for fewer points 👇

Which attributes matter for running match coverage in CFB 27? Our testing shows match coverage is about 70% Man Coverage and 30% Awareness, plus the Speed, Agility and Change of Direction to keep up with the receiver after the match. Here’s the test 👇

CFB 27 says National Powerhouse facilities give you 16% more offseason progression. We tested it. It’s only about 10%. The Platinum offseason progression support staff upgrade costs less than half as much and gives you the full 20%. Full breakdown in the video below 👇

Another day, another CFB 27 dynasty bug. Just won the national championship in our online dynasty. Winning it is supposed to give you a 1,000 dynasty point bonus. Making the championship pays out another 500. I only got 55.

One of the best ways to rebuild a program in CFB 27 is to accept walk-ons. Turn Auto Recruiting On during Encourage Transfers Week. If you're under 85 players, the game fills your roster with walk-ons when you advance. DK walks through the full process below using UL Monroe, a 0-star program. He cut everyone under 70 OVR to open up spots. Half his top 10 players came from the walk-on pool, including a 95 speed HB with Platinum Human Joystick.

Hopefully this means they’re fixing the online dynasty bug 🙏🏼

In CFB 27, every recruiting class has exactly 32 five-stars. But not all of those five-stars are actually five-stars. The game ranks the whole class first, then slaps the five-star label on the top 32, whatever they turn out to be. So some of them are actually four-stars wearing a five-star label. Here's how to spot them 👇

Update from EA on the broken online dynasty issue. They say they believe they've found the root cause and are working on a fix.

While I appreciate the CFB 27 devs being proactive with fixes, the September 3rd title update broke a lot of online dynasties, and three days later we still haven't heard anything. I've heard from dozens of people who still can't get into their online dynasty at all. @CFBDirect are you aware of this issue? When can we expect a fix?
