About Football Coach

Football Coach is a college football simulator / management game.

In College Football Coach, you take the role of a newly hired coach at the school of your choice. Your goal is to win rivalry games, conference championships, and even the national championship! But with 60 teams total over 6 conferences, this task is easier said than done.

Your team will play 12 games in the regular season, which consist of playing all 9 of your conference opponents once and three out of conference games. By navigating to the "GAMES" tab, you can see exactly what your team's schedule is. And by clicking on each game, you can see a scouting report of the two teams (if the game has yet to be played), or a summary of the game (if it was already played). The most important game of the regular season is your rivalry game, which you gain prestige if won or lose prestige if lost.

At the end of the regular season, the Conference Championship is played between the two teams with the best in-conference record. If two teams have the same record, a head-to-head tiebreaker is used. If three or more teams have the same record, the one with the highest poll ranking is chosen. After the Conference Championships, Bowl Games are played. Only the top 16 teams get chosen for a bowl, with the most important being the National Semifinals between the #1 and #4 team, and the #2 and #3 team. The winner of these two games advance to the National Championship where an undisputed champion is crowned. After the season, your team will have gained or lost prestige based on their results versus their expectations, and you move onto recruiting.

When you first inherit a team, you will have a total of 46 players (22 starters) on your roster. Each player has a name, their year in school (from Freshman to Senior), an Overall rating, Potential rating, and three position specific ratings. The Overall rating is just a composite rating of the three position specific ones, while Potential determines how much each play improves during the offseason. You can view all of these players in the "ROSTER" tab, which will include:

2 QBs (1 starter): Quarterbacks, responsible for throwing passes to wide receivers.
4 RBs (2 starters): Running Backs, who run up and down the field.
6 WRs (3 starters): Wide Receivers, who catch passes for yards and TDs.
10 OLs (5 starters): Offensive Line, responsible for protecting the quarterback.
2 Ks (1 starter): Kicker, responsible for kicking extra points and field goals.
2 Ss (1 starter): Safety, responsible for covering opposing wide receivers and causing interceptions.
6 CBs (3 starters): Cornerback, responsible for covering wide receivers to deny them the ball.
14 F7s (7 starters): Front Seven, responsible for stopping the run and putting pressure on the quarterback.

As a coach, you can pick what strategy your team employs on offense and defense as they play through their season. By default both strategies are set to "No Preference", meaning there are no bonuses or penalties either way. But you can change your strategy to any of the following:

[Offense] Aggressive:
- Utilize a more aggressive offense. Will pass a bit more.
- Pass with a lower completion percentage and higher chance of interception.
- However, passes that are caught will go for more yards.

[Offense] Conservative:
- Utilize a more conservative offense. Will run a bit more.
- Passes are more accurate but go for less yards.
- Rushes are more likely to gain yards but less likely to break free for big plays.

[Defense] Stack the Box:
- Defensive scheme with emphasis on stopping the run.
- Will give up more big passing plays but will allow less rushing yards and big plays from rushing.

[Defense] No Fly Zone:
- Defensive scheme with emphasis on limiting the pass.
- Will give up less yards on catches and be more likely to intercept passes.
- However, rushing plays will go for more yards.

A great game for strategy. You can pick it up after setting it down for a while and keep on going where you left off. You can play at your own pace as well, and it's very difficult to get players with the same name twice, even when you start different games. Maybe add Tight ends and Fullbacks to spice up the offense, and give a pinch more money for recruitment if this is implemented though. The save system is weird, since it only saves at the beginning of the year, and it only saves manually. If this issue was to be addressed, I might call it the perfect casual game.

I downloaded this today and didnt realize it but played it for some 5 hours straight. This reminds me of the old PC sims. Very well done! Now i will be getting College Hoops and the Pro Football one. It would be awesome if you made a Racing sim like this.

Great app with a very original idea. I just wish it was more descriptive like your offensive line was really left tackle left guard center etc. and your front 7 on defense was Defensive end Nose tackle etc. This way you could have 3-4 defenses or 4-3 and it would effect your run and pass defence. Also should be able to decide pistol pro style and spread type offenses. Maybe add Fullbacks and TightEnds too

You don't need stunning graphics and broads with giant boobs to sell your game! This developer gets what people want IMO! Sit down with this and watch how quickly this electronic meth hooks you! It's fun to see guys development, drafting, records shattered etc. Ready to try the basketball and Pro version! Work on an NHL version coming?...Maybe?! Hats off on a great sim!

I'm 14 and really cannot stand any games on mobile device except for this one. I'm a massive Oregon fan so recruiting and strategizing to win national championships was alot of fun and a great time killer.

Big college football fan, this game is super good. But confused on how to save your season(s), like how do you save a season when youre only halfway thru it? Or is it meant to get thru a season in one sitting?

I have never rated an app before because I haven't found an app that made me want to. This game made me do it. I only downloaded it this morning and already it's my favourite game on my phone. Cannot say enough good things about it. Every football fan should download this game.

Can u update the game to where we can play the game and watch the plays as they happen. Like we can in your other game college basketball coach.....That would make the game more fun..I think.....

Whenever I try to save (new file or overwrite) it doesn't save it. It just has a bunch of 0-0 record file saves.

This game is a hidden gem in the play store, the game has enough depth to keep you playing for a long time. I've had the game for 2 months and I'm still playing it today. Big thanks to the developer Achi Jones!

The game was a very enjoyable distraction; I'm a huge Front Office Football fan and this definitely satisfied my mobile text football itch. Only complaint is that it becomes entirely too easy to maintain a dynasty even on hard once you learn the simplistic drafting

Will only give 5 if I can save the game mid season. Seems like I can't. Maybe I am just stupid.

Great time killing it with all the teams but American Somoa is the best to try and get better on hard came close to a national title but couldnt crack top 4 in time but highest ranking was 5!

Love the game and to make it better could you give us a play game options for people who might like it. It would be easy just in game coaching and you make calls like whether you want to run/pass/punt. But like with more detail like a playbook you call and it has an average yards gained measurement. And also in game substitutions. And for the future mayb like awnsering media questions

No "in game" action, but great from a managerial standpoint

R70%
by R####:

As long as the save option doesn't work, I can't give this more than 1 star.

R70%
by R####:

I'd be a little bit more happy with more mechanics like playbooks the statics are good but we need to be able to retire our coach an have a coach hall of fame also. I really like that there is a CCG and a 4 team Semi & NCG

H70%
by H####:

This is awesome but after playing the college hoops version i really wish they would set this one up the same way. More stratagies and you can view play by play and change strategy mid game.

A lot of fun! I've only had it two days and I've already played 23 seasons!

P70%
by P####:

I don't like how if I put a strategy for a team. For instinct a team was number 1 for rushing yards a game. I selected push the box to stop runs. But they ended up doing more rushing yards

I don't know what else to say other than that this might be the most boring game ever. 5 minutes and I uninstalled it.

It keeps going back to 0-0 for season

Great game. No in app purchases. Old school strategy game that goes quick. Very fast install so there's no real downside to trying it out.

Add the same updates to this game as u did to the college hoop Game! Like money when players leave, team statistics, hall of fame, etc

Like this game and your others but it would be cool if you make a my player type game but with the same concept like your other games

Would make the game realistic. Should be for both pro version and college. Also, playbooks would be nice.
