Interesting to say the least. I'm a Clemson *****, so I think they're rated too highly.

EA had the impossible job of trying to rate teams/players form scratch, and considering most teams get transfer players, there's no way to rate the teams accurately. I'll allow it.

Job well done EA. Now let’s get to the niddy griddy! Cmon Dynasty mode!

Edit: dynasty deep dive coming next week!

An absolute slap in the face to Tennessee. Yes, I am being a homer, but there's no reason that they should have been left off of this ranking, as well as the top offensive unit list.

Gotta go prove them wrong I guess

I was really hoping we'd get the complete team list today. My fault for overthinking the word overall.

At first glance the list seems fine to me and better than the others. The 1st team being 95 and 9/14th being 88 is a pretty big gap. If you get down to the 70th ranked teams that should confirm how much better the elite teams are.

I'm a Miami fan, but I find it curious that they are tired for being the 9th best team in the nation. I know recruiting has been at a new level ever since Cristobal took over, and their portal additions have been big this off-season, but that's a high ranking.

I know PFF is helping with rankings and PFF seems to love a lot of Miami players, so it makes sense in that regard. It's just, being a fan of the team, and one that tries not to be too big of a homer, I am not sure Miami has potentially the 9th best talent in the country at this point in time.

I know the overall ratings are likely dictated by some formula that likely more heavily weighs the QB1 than many other spots, so having Cam Ward likely has their offense and overall ratings higher than anticipated, but tied for 9th still feels wild. I hope for my sake EA is getting this one right, lol.

Regarding the ratings, I don't mind that everyone seems grouped together. Same with the offensive and defensive ratings we were given yesterday. There seems to be a decent spread and a clear difference between the true top tier units/teams and then the rest. I feel like in CFB you have a few elite teams each year, a few good to great teams, a huge jumbled mess of a lot of teams that don't separate themselves, then the bad teams. Their ratings seem to indicate they feel a similar way with how a few units/teams are in the 90s and clearly higher than the rest while the bulk of the rest of the top 25 are all in a similar range.

I am glad the best team is a 95 and not a 99. I hope that is indicative of both player and team ratings being in the high 90s or even mid 90s is actually rare.

Nobody has Colorado as a top 25 team, including Vegas who probably knows more about this than anyone.

I hate sounding negative before a game comes out, and I'm still buying this day 1, but I'm really worried that this game is going to be way more silly arcade than an actual sim.
