College Football 25 is taking the world by storm in 2024! After 11 years of waiting, the “boys are back in town.” We’re all playing just as much as you… except for when we’re in practice of course.

​On this episode Joe and Daniel are joined by friend of the show, and YouTube gaming sensation, Ron McKie to talk about the new game, the pros and cons, and how we can use the game to teach football.

• Ron McKie, at the time, was enjoying College Ultimate Team, or CUT.
• Daniel and Joe are both playing Dynasty modes and getting refamiliarized with the game.
• Ron is the only one playing online games.

• The inability to use whatever playbook you want online. The Veer and Shoot is a fan favorite, and yet is limited to a few teams.
• The inability to change RPO routes pre-snap. Simple signals can tell a receiver to change to a different RPO even in High School, yet college players can’t?
• Tackling on Defense is still atrocious, even after the update.

• Most of the game is very realistic, and can almost be considered a sim.
• The counter plays are more realistic than power, and zone seems to follow some type of realistic logic in blocking rules.
• The game makes a great platform for teaching football. Coverages, run schemes, option routes, special teams… you name it, you can teach it with College Football 25.

• We’re always looking for ways to become better coaches, which is why we started our “Level Up” section of the podcast. Check out the original “How to Level Up Your Coaching Game” episode here.
• Back in 2019 Ron joined the show to talk about leveling up your off-season.
