A to Z Cheats

NCAA Football 2002

Player's names
--------------
The players in the game are modeled after real players, and 
the programmers included most of their names. To hear the 
announcers call your players' names instead of their number, 
simply change their names in the options menu. Select "Roster" 
and then "Edit player information". Collegiate rosters can 
usually be found on a school's web site or go through a search 
engine -- enter the school name and "football" (for example, 
Penn State Football). Note: Not all of the names will be 
recognized, but enough to add some personality to the game. 

Touchdown celebrations
----------------------
Hold one of the following buttons immediately before scoring a 
touchdown at the risk of an unsportsman-like conduct penalty.

Point upwards: Press L1 or R1.
Hold up football: Press R2.
Shake football: Press L2. 
Highstep into the endzone:
Break away on a touchdown run or pass, with at least 10 yards 
between you and the nearest defensive player. Press Triangle 
to highstep into the endzone.

Maximum player status
---------------------
Select "Rosters" in the options menu, then "Edit Player" Select 
their ratings icon and you can change every column up to 99.

No band music
-------------
Press Start when the band starts playing to stop the music 
without disabling the other crowd sounds. 

More timeouts
-------------
Press Start during game play and switch to the CPU's controller 
and use their timeouts.

Custom name announcement
------------------------
Go to options, select "Roster" and select "Create A Player". 
Put your own name in as the player's name and it will be called 
out by the announcers if it is common. 

Easy sacks
----------
Select the fastest person on defense then hold Circle + R2 + L1. 
Release and he should do a spin move to get buy the offensive 
lineman.

Before or during a game, go to the penalty options in the options 
menu and turn off offsides, encroachment, and false start. 
When on defense, go past the line of scrimmage before the ball is 
snapped and no penalties will be called against you.  
Note: There will be slight fatigue that the CPU will just move to 
the line of scrimmage after the ball is snapped. Just move the 
Analog-stick to regain control. 

For easy sacks with a linebacker, do a dime defense if there is no 
tight end. Move in between the right tackle and right guard. 
No moves are required.

Control QB ball speed
---------------------
Hold the button configured to throw to a receiver to make a hard 
line drive pass, or tap the button for a lav pass.
