Alright! We are well underway in Season 27 and with the unveiling of the new simulation engine! With that, I must say that the new sim is very...interesting to say the least. To begin with, the new sim looks crisp in terms of visuals and overall presentation that is a welcome upgrade to the previous sim of the past few seasons. However, the annoying "upset" glitch is there again where certain teams that should not win against great teams somehow find ways to beat them. With that being said, in regards to NOLA, this season has been a bit of an annoying struggle for us, despite being the Season 26 Ultimus runner ups. We had an upset loss to Honolulu at home who we are definitely better than on paper and we lost at home to OCO on a last second fluky FG drive. It is annoying because I feel that the sim is still having fluky moments decide games instead of determining the games through each team's talent. It is not all bad, however, as we seem to be returning to contention form as we defeated Austin on the road with a great all around offensive performance and a few clutch defensive stops and plays. Thus, I believe we should be able to contend for the Ultimus again.
