EA Sports’ “College Football 25” console video game is under a month from being released. With the game being highly anticipated, EA has been treating fans to a few previews, such as the toughest places to play and various sights and sounds.
On Thursday, the top offenses were revealed. Here’s how they’re set ahead of the big release, with EA noting that rankings are subject to change in future updates.
- Georgia – 94 OVR
- Oregon – 94 OVR
- Alabama – 91 OVR
- Texas – 91 OVR
- Ohio State – 89 OVR
- LSU – 89 OVR
- Miami – 89 OVR
- Colorado – 89 OVR
- Missouri – 89 OVR
- Clemson – 87 OVR
- Utah – 87 OVR
- Penn State – 87 OVR
- Ole Miss – 87 OVR
- Kansas – 87 OVR
- Arizona – 87 OVR
- NC State – 87 OVR
- Notre Dame – 85 OVR
- Texas A&M – 85 OVR
- Memphis – 85 OVR
- SMU – 85 OVR
- UCF – 85 OVR
- Florida State – 83 OVR
- Oklahoma – 83 OVR
- Virginia Tech – 83 OVR
- USC – 83 OVR
The top 10 rankings particularly dominated the social media discussion.
Surprise, surprise – fans have some issues with EA’s official rankings. Ole Miss being outside the top 10 and behind teams such as Miami, Colorado and Clemson is a particular point of controversy. It’s just as shocking to have Tennessee’s high-powered offense completely absent from the top 25.
Here’s a sample of what fans and media members are saying about the offensive rankings:
The early ratings and rankings this week in College Football 25 are pretty rough …
*Ohio State in the 80s offensively
*No Oklahoma State (with a returning Doak Walker winner) in top 25
*Clemson’s OFFENSE rated higher than its home-field advantage … do what pic.twitter.com/GQVjFzT77D

EA Sports released its highest-rated offenses for College Football ’25, and I cackled when I saw Miami & Colorado listed without Ole Miss. pic.twitter.com/fBTBYLrA0z

I’m gonna keep it real with you playa
Having our offense over Arizona, Kansas, and Ole Miss is wild lol

Colorado’s offense is an 89 overall and rated higher than OLE MISS?? https://t.co/eDm42ZRIt0

A Penn State offense that could only score 25 points against Ole Miss in the Peach Bowl somehow has the same overall as the Rebels. Give me a break https://t.co/xoD2DuUuK4

I’m geeked out at Colorado. Once again, putting Tennessee out of this.
How do you not have the Rebs on this? Colorado? Top 10 offense in football? https://t.co/BuI2CXshnW

I don’t really care about being left out of the top 25. What’s absolutely WILD to me is that this implies Tennessee’s offense is not even an 83. And that’s insane. https://t.co/Sc97Ie7cfh

The game is set to be released on July 19. It will certainly be interesting to see how these translate into gameplay.
