Towards the end of June 2024, EA Sports began releasing team ratings for College Football 25, including ratings for teams with the best offensive and defensive performances at the beginning of the year.
On July 19, 2024, the long-awaited release of College Football 25 will officially take place, as the game will be launched worldwide. This will be the first official college football simulation game released in over a decade.
EA Sports released team ratings in late June to draw attention to the release, including the best offenses and defenses. Not surprisingly, many of the top players in the game dominate the top spots on the lists.
Here are the best offensive and defensive strategies in College Football 25.
Let’s look at the best offenses in College Football 25 at launch:
«Georgia,» led by outstanding quarterback Carson Beck, takes the top spot with an OVR rating of 94, alongside the «Oregon Ducks.»
The «Bulldogs» finished fifth in the country in 2023 in yards per game (496.5), while Oregon was second in the country (531.4) last year, only behind LSU. However, Oregon will not have Bo Nix at the helm in the upcoming season.
Traditional powerhouses Alabama, Texas, and Ohio State round out the top five. The Longhorns are led by star quarterback and cover athlete of College Football 25, Quinn Ewers.
Another notable point is that «Colorado,» led by Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, is ranked as the eighth best offense.
Now let’s look at the best defenses in College Football 25.
Here are the teams that will have the best defense in College Football 25 at launch:
Last year, the «Ohio State Buckeyes» ranked second in the country in fewest points allowed per game (11.23), only behind their archrival «Michigan.» But after the «Wolverines» lost to Chris Jenkins and Mike Sainristil due to professionals, the state of Ohio is leading at the beginning of 2024.
Georgia’s defense held teams to 15.64 points per game last season, an achievement considering the tough competition in the SEC. Bulldogs enter the year with the second best defense in the game.
