That's what is frustrating about EA's AI.

EA's "AI" has pretty much been like that for as long as I remember. Kinda like in their NHL games, when your goalie is a 90 and the AI's is a 76, and you're winning 3-0 with 2 mins left in the third, and outshooting them 60-10... and then all of a sudden, you can't hit anything anymore. Your guys can't skate, they can't receive a pass, they're suddenly incapable of turning around and picking up a loose puck that is right beside them... and light flip shots from the AI at your blueline are suddenly going through everyone and landing in the back of your net.
I've always hesitated to call anything EA does and "AI." It's more like,
"OK, it's the last minute of the game and the score is within 3. Time to reduce all his player's stats to 1 and crank all ours up to 99. We'll score on each of our next 3 shots, and then put it back to where it was."
It always reminds me of when my brother used to kick my ass at football on our Atari 2600 when we were kids. I would wait til he wasn't looking and then flip the difficulty switches on the console, and then laugh while I was throwing 100 yard touchdowns and every time one of his guys touched the ball, they'd fumble it.
EA's AI... please
