College Football 25: EA Sports Reveals the Best Defensive Teams
Hours after revealing the best offensive teams, EA Sports has revealed the best defensive teams available in College Football 25.
EA Sports revealed the top 25 best defensive teams available in its long-awaited return to the college football video game franchise. Like the top-ranking offensive teams, EA Sports factored in several parameters when compiling this list, such as vetting thousands of players, “years worth of game film,” and viewing a slew of statistics when compiling this list.
The top-ranking defensive team in College Football 25 is The Ohio State University, with an overall rank of 96. Led by head coach Ryan Day and defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, Ohio State has been consistently a good team overall, with recent years showing its dominance as a defensive powerhouse. Last season, the Buckeyes went 11-2 record, losing the last two games in its season. The first loss was to longtime rival and the eventual 2023 national champions, the Michigan Wolverines, and the second was in the Cotton Bowl to the Missouri Tigers.
Georgia, Oregon, Alabama, and Clemson are some other top-ranking defenses in College Football 25. The full list of the top 25 defensive teams, as well as each team’s overall offensive ranking in College Football 25 will be available below
College Football 25 is out on July 19 or July 16 if you buy the Deluxe Edition or MVP Bundle. For more information, check out yesterday’s Sights and Sounds gameplay deep dive, the top 25 toughest places to play, and our hands-on preview.
