With the highly-anticipated release of EA’s College Football 25, the first college football video game in over a decade, many fans of the sport are speculating about the top player ratings in the game.
The Texas Longhorns are sure to be one of the highest-rated teams in the game with a mix of success in last year’s season, the transfer portal and in recruiting.
Though all ratings are pure guesses at this point in the year, it can still be fun to speculate how good some of the best Texas players will be rated.
The cover star will likely enter as a top-three rated quarterback in the game as one of the few returning starters on a top 10 team.
Ewers will not be rated as high as players like Johnny Manziel and Denard Robinson were in past games, but his accuracy and throw power will boost his rating toward an elite number.
Redshirt freshman quarterback Arch Manning has declined being in the game, so he will likely be replaced by a placeholder fake player with a rating in the 80s.
Otherwise, true freshman Trey Owens is the only other player of note in the quarterback room and will likely be rated around a 75 given his status as the number 21 quarterback in the class of 2024, according to 247Sports.
Baxter was third among all freshman Power 5 running backs in yards per carry while splitting a backfield with the likes of Jonathon Brooks and Jaydon Blue.
Baxter is poised to lead the running back room and make a large impact in Austin alongside Blue and Tre Wisner.
Baxter is a great power runner and ball carrier who will likely be one of the highest-rated running backs in breaking tackle.
Blue will probably be rated in the low 80s while Wisner will likely join Owens in the 75 range. Neither have done enough on the field to warrant elite ratings, but both will be rated in the high 90s in speed, while Blue will likely have great agility and juking stats.
