How to unlock the Take a Stab Downfield achievement in NCAA Football 12 - Definitive Guide

Have a stacked matchup in Play Now mode, like Oklahoma vs. San Jose State. Two controllers works well here too, but not entirely necessary.

Go to House Rules under the Settings on the main menu, change difficulty to Freshman, and adjust all the CPU sliders to zero, and all User sliders to 100.

In your game, when you have the ball choose any pass play with simple, straight routes, or routes you are comfortable with. Snap the ball and wait a few seconds for your receiver to get downfield. Tap the appropriate button for the receiver to lob it to him for a 50+ yard pass! If you have troubles with this, have the second controller pick a play that doesn't protect the pass well, or better yet have a friend control the guy covering you to leave you wide open. Edited rosters works great here too, it's up to you if you want to spend the time adjusting them.

I got it in a Mascot Mash-up game so yeah mascots are all 99 so might be easy. But this is just one of those achievements you'll easily get by just playing.

Simply throw a pass for 50 yards or longer. This trophy can also be obtained in Road to Glory.

If for some reason you're having trouble unlocking this trophy, try the following tips:

  • Adjust the settings. Set the User Sliders to 100 and the AI sliders to 0.
  • Another alternative is to choose a Play Now game and choose a 6 star school and play against a 1 star school and just throw a Hail Mary and you should easily get this.

Simply complete a pass for 50+ yard pass. If you want an easy way of doing this, simply use two controllers and have the ball around the 25 yard line on your side of the field on offense. Select a Hail Mary pass for the offense and field goal block for the defense. As soon as you hike the ball, pass to any receiver and take it for a touchdown.
