![]() ![]() One thing that would've destroyed the confidence of most teams, especially in last year's game, was the passing from ball handlers. While it's understandable that the crowd won't constantly stay amped up throughout the entire game, it's a bit hard to see why one basket will extend the confidence of your squad and the next made bucket will bring the hype back down to normal. The other oddity is that some shots you'll make when you're in the momentum boosting period of the 6th Man Advantage will completely reset the meter instead of prolonging it during play. ![]() Instead of quieting down, they continued their cheering and howling, which seems a bit odd considering that their noise died down when USC went to the charity stripe a few minutes later. For instance, I was playing as UCLA at Pauley Pavillion against USC, and while I'd pumped up the crowd, the Bruin fans were screaming their heads off as my point guard was sent to the foul line to shoot two shots.

As the home team makes plays, getting baskets and performing defensive stops or forcing turnovers, a meter along the bottom of the screen fills up with the crowd's excitement at the game. This is the 6th Man Advantage, and College Hoops 2K8 tries to recreate this in the midst of games in a dynamic way. The crowd can also buoy their squad, making them play much harder as they feed off the energy of the stands. Of course, every basketball fan knows that this atmosphere can be enough to completely disrupt the concentration of opponents, forcing poor shots and lapses in judgment that can benefit the home team.
