Denard, NCAA Cover

    Saying A&M is cheating is about as ignorant as you can get. Both sides are "cheating" if that's what you want to call it.
    The deficit this morning was 12,000 votes. If A&M fans are dedicated enough to make 12,000 accounts just to vote on Swope being on the cover of a video game, that's impressive and they deserve it.
    Ever think it can be due to the Dude Perfect video with Ryan Swope? 1 video link on youtube has 108,000 views. Another link has 78,000 views.
    Or it could be due to the fact that this years HEISMAN winner tweeted the link to vote asking people to vote for Swope. Manziel has close to 319,000 followers. I think either of those are more likely the cause of Swope catching up as opposed to the Aggies cheating. Get real people.

    Lol creating 12000 accounts is impressive? In what world? Seems pretty sad and reeks of desperation

    We know that's crap. Swope was losing by 16k for nearly a week and then makes up all the votes in less than a day. TAMU fans started cheating to catchup and some Michigan fans started to compensate for that by doing it as well. Phelps (with over a million followers) made a tweet to vote for Denard so we know the HEISMAN winner making a tweet had nothing to do with this rapid voting all of the sudden. TAMU just has way more loser fans to make fake accounts, that is all. Nothing against TAMU, but don't try and act like this is legit.

    lol whatever man. If this vote is really that important to you, good for you. I'll personally worry about things that actually matter in my life, which would not include a video game cover.

    Aggies have taken the lead. What a joke.

    99% of the country and college football fans have never heard of Ryan Swope before this contest, and probably only 98% now know who he is

  • I'm honestly shocked it took this long to have somebody cheat. Online voting is never going to work for this type of thing. If people can crack extensive encryption and serial number protection to provide expensive software for free in a matter of hours, they surely can hack some lame voting system.

    A friend of mine I used to work with went to a company that wrote software to beat the authentication pages that ask you to type in the word you see. They used it for virtual waiting rooms for concert/sporting tickets so that ticket brokers could have a better shot at getting tickets than the general public because they'd be able to hope in 100x more virtual queues than the average person.

    Given EASports does software, I'm sure they realized their voting was going to be hacked (just like all their PC games show up on download sites) and have a contingency plan in place...

    This will be the first year since like 2002 I won't buy if this shit stands. Some total garbage

    Agreed. There would be no real point to buying the same shit game when there's some player I hadn't even heard of prior to the vote, especially a player who got on the cover because a relatively small fan base has nothing to do except make thousands of fake accounts to vote.

    I have to thank all of you guys. Your whining and accusations are awesome and are great fodder for our boards. No one wants to point out that Michigan jumped to the massive lead they had with a 6,000+ vote increase from 1am-6am CST a few days ago. Everyone is playing under the same rules, and I can promise you that multiple votes are filtered out via the same IP address. There are no voting bots or other "hacking" going on.

    You guys are getting out-voted, plain and simple. Ags have a rep. for dominating polls.

    no

  • Why not make an assignment for the students to vote for Denard? Those would be easy votes.

    Are you kidding me? there are so many ways to fake the process here .... your comment of "multiple votes are filtered out via the same IP address" is the easiest workaround out there ....
