News, news, news:
The big feature here is a new "League News" page, which replaces the League Dashboard (though that view is still available). This news page has newspapers from the league and from each conference, and each newspaper has stories about upcoming games, game results, player award watches, team rankings, and more. In the future, other story types will be added. I think this adds some much needed personality to the game, see the screenshot below!
Updates to the 'Sim until' option during games:
Clicking the small three-dot menu when playing games now brings up a slightly different dialog, which should help prevent misclicks when you're actually trying to Watch the game. Additionally, you can now restart a game if God Mode is enabled.
Finally, I've made some updates to how the polls work, which will now penalize teams with very los SOS more harshly; going 13-0 but having the worst SOS in the nation should now put you below some 1 and even 2 loss teams with better SOS. This should be more in line with how the real CFB committee ranks teams, and will affect larger custom universes more than the default one.
You can see the full list of changes below.
Features:
- Added new "League News" page, with newspaper stories for game results, game previews, player award watches and winners, and team rankings
Minor improvements:
- Penalize teams with low SOS more harshly in polls
- Change 'Sim Until' dialog to change button layout and prevent misclicks

- Prevent F/G keypress from changing recruits when bookmarking recruits
- Add measures to prevent skipping through multiple plays at once when playing a game
Thanks for playing!
