Your team's game came down to the wire. Now it's your call: run the real crunch time drive on a live play clock and beat the coach. New calls after every close finish.
Tied in overtime. The play clock is running. It's your call.
Hard Count puts you on the headset for the real moments that decided pro and college football games: the overtime possession, the 4th down with the game on the line. Call the plays against a real play clock, play it out to the final whistle, then see if you beat the real coach.
CALL IT BEFORE THE CLOCK DOES
• Every call starts from the real down, distance, score, spot and time left.
• 17 plays per playbook: runs, zone reads, RPOs, quick passes, screens, play-action and deep shots. Take inside or outside zone to the strong side or the weak side.
• Tap once to draw the play on the field, tap again to snap it. Wait too long and it's delay of game.
• Kick the field goal, punt, spike it, use a timeout or go for two.
WATCH IT PLAY OUT
• Every snap comes to life on a chalkboard field: routes, reads, coverage and the ball in the air.
• New to play calling? Press and hold any play to learn it, read by read. The clock waits while you read.
PLAY IT TO THE FINAL WHISTLE
• Your drive is only the start. Pick the look on defense, manage your timeouts and play on into overtime until someone wins.
BEAT THE REAL COACH
• Every call is scored against what the real coach did, with win probabilities built from years of real play by play.
• Your recap draws your drive beside the real one and scores your call out of 100.
NEW CALLS AFTER EVERY CLOSE FINISH
• When your team's game comes down to the wire, its biggest moments are ready the next morning. Turn on alerts to know when they land.
• Follow any pro team and any FBS school.
YOUR FANBASE VS EVERY FANBASE
• Your first try at each week's calls counts for your fanbase in the weekly standings.
• Add friends, compare scores call by call and keep a head to head record all season.
THE VAULT
• Replay overtime thrillers, two minute drills and go for two calls from past seasons.
