Okay guys, here's a question for you. I think about what combo I'm going to do, practice it a little, and then when I actually am in a position to use it, I never remember to try it. Does anybody have some advice about how to incorporate combos that work on my brother in the heat of battle?

examples (with fox):
punch>punch>grab
grab>down throw>down tilt

All I can say is just keep practicing. You'll get the hang of it eventually.
Do it a few dozen times in training mode etc.

Something I've found that works for me is that, whenever I learn something new that I want to incorporate, I over-use it for a while to see where it works, when I'm punished for trying, stuff like that. This way I get used to performing it more naturally, and may find the best ways of using it. But training mode is also a really good way of working on it. You should have the set of inputs be completely natural so that it takes no mental effort to remember them when you want to perform it. Then you just need to play more consciously and force yourself to work it in.
