EA College Football 25 player ratings: Florida State, Miami, UCF on list
Florida State and UCF had one player apiece in the top-100 player ratings, while the Miami Hurricane saw three make EA Sports’ initial list.
We’re now one weekend away from the much-anticipated release of College Football 25, the first installment in the college football video game series in 11 years.
EA Sports continued dropping previews of the game this past week. The Orlando-based company shared deep dives of the Ultimate Team mode and, of course, the Road to Glory, which lets players put themselves into the game and compete for the Heisman Trophy.
And to top it off, the list of the top 100 player ratings was unveiled. Michigan’s Will Johnson, LSU’s Will Campbell and Oklahoma State’s Ollie Gordon top the list with 96 ratings, while Ohio State fields a game-high eight players in the top-100. This comes a week after EA Sports released the list of team ratings, with Georgia leading the pack at 95.
