At long last, we finally got our first look at some actual, honest-to-god gameplay for College Football 25.
Fans are absolutely thrilled about the revival of the beloved video game series from EA Sports, which has been stuck in limbo since 2013 but will release its reboot on July 19, featuring actual player names and likenesses for the first time.
However, fans aren’t exactly pleased with every aspect of the game we saw in Friday’s gameplay reveal. One element featured in the trailer was team ratings for several college football squads, giving us an idea of how teams will compare to each other in the game.

In particularly, fans really could not believe that the Clemson Tigers were given a 95 overall rating, including a 98 rating for the defense.
While these ratings are unofficial at this point, that didn’t stop concerned fans from voicing their bewilderment with some teams’ ratings.
