SELECTING YOUR PLAYS
The National Championship is built around the talents of the student athlete, teamwork, and
the coach’s playbook. This isn’t old school AI where you could call the same plays over and
over again. To win, you are going to have to mix up your plays on offense and defense. Play
to your team’s strengths. If you have great cornerbacks, you can gamble more with blitzes
and man-to-man coverage. If you have a great running back, then pound the ball out on the
ground. For the offensive playbook, passing plays are displayed in blue, running plays are
displayed in red, and option plays are displayed in yellow.
The Pause Menu allows you to stop gameplay and call a time out, select your audibles,
make substitutions, view the replay, change the game options and controller configuration,
adjust the game camera angles, and view the current stats. When you are playing with
more than one person, the player who pressed the Start Button to enter the Pause Menu
has control of selecting all of the above options.

Now that you’ve got all of the basics down, let’s head on out to
the field and throw the pigskin around. Here’s the flow of all the
menus and screens you see as you set up an Exhibition game.
CHOOSING TEAMS
Note: the team on the left is the visitors, and the team on the right is at home.
To make it easier to find the team you are looking for, the teams are grouped by confer-
ence. Press the X button or A to scroll through the list of conferences. Then move down
(Analog stick or D-Pad) to select your team (using the X and A buttons again). For a change
of pace, you can also change the playbook your team is using. Want to see what your team
would look like running an option offense, then select an option school like Nebraska.
CONTROLLER ASSIGNMENT SCREEN
Once you’ve selected the teams, the Controller Assignment screen appears. Press the ana-
log stick or D-Pad LEFT / RIGHT to align your controller with the team you wish to com-
mand. If you wish to use Maximum Passing (and you should to get the ultimate NCAA 2K2
experience), press the A Button to toggle it on. When everything is set the way you want,
press the Start Button to advance to the game.
COIN TOSS
The visiting team gets to call it. The winner of the toss gets to choose whether to kick or
receive. The loser chooses which goal to defend. Following the coin toss, the Special Teams
play calling screen appears.
