You have been warned. It is supposedly a disadvantage to play against a real-life quarterback in Madden. South Carolina offensive lineman Cory Helms played teammate and quarterback Jake Bentley in the NFL football game. Helms and his opponent had different styles, but it was something else he could not keep up with.

"Yeah I played Jake in Madden the other day. It was 3rd and 13 and I ran it. No I didn’t [pick up the first down], not at all. First and goal on the two with him and he threw it. It’s just a different mindset," Helms said.

Bentley could have been playing as a prototypical quarterback like Tom Brady or Drew Brees. Maybe his athleticism in the pocket made him select playing as Cam Newton, Aaron Rodgers or Russell Wilson. Whoever he chose to play as, Helms felt he was overmatched.

"Don’t ever play a quarterback in Madden. They start reading coverages, never do it again," Helms said. "I lost, I'm good at reading coverages, but he was pressing the R2 button and making the screen big. I’ll never do it again."

On a real football field, Helms had high praise for Bentley, who is coming off his first start and win with the Gamecocks.

"He’s really poise. He takes good command of our offense. He’s assertive in calling the plays, he’s confident," Helms said.

So Bentley does not only have potential in a video game career, but is also off to a good start on a college football field. He will be tested in reading Tennessee's defensive coverages this Saturday when the Gamecocks (3-4, 1-4) and Volunteers (5-2, 2-2) kickoff at 7:15 p.m. on ESPN2 at Williams-Brice Stadium.
