Can't Call Timeout?

So, I'm trying to do the "Show Off" challenge under study partners and even though I have three time outs shown, it won't let me call timeout, either through the controller, or by pausing. (Timeout isn't even an option in that menu.) Anyone else having that issue? 

Without being able to use the TOs, it's nearly impossible. I had one pass, then kicked the FG (you're down by four) and left myself nearly 1:50 to get the ball back, which I could have done with TOs. Without them, they just ran the clock on me.

    I restarted the console and got it to work again. Hope you can, too!

    I wish I hadn't bought it, to be honest. I thought the gameplay in the demo was decent, but everything else has been a shirt show, just like it is every year. This year's worse, though. By far. The packs are the worst I've ever seen. I must be the unluckiest guy in the world, because I see streamers saying, "I pulled 5 LTDs and 2 champions out of this pack!"* Meanwhile, I can't seem to win on 50/50 odds and just now couldn't get any luck with an 80% chance! And the step packs should wither and fall off the vine. 

    I'll probably do what I did last year: just stop and pick it up again in the last few weeks, when ridiculously expensive cards aren't obsolete every other week. 

    * obviously an exaggeration, but you get my meaning. 

  • I am dealing with this issue as well, and I have now sent out a report for the devs to look at this issue. One question that I do need to ask, which console were you guys playing on?

    PS5 for me. Haven't encountered it since, though.
