# College Football 25 Slider Set and Setup Guide
This guide outlines a slider set and setup process for EA Sports College Football 25, designed for realistic gameplay and box scores on Varsity difficulty. Special thanks to VCTRB for the auto-subs, speed threshold, and fatigue settings.
## Initial Setup
1. **Delete Your Profile**:
- Deleting your profile resets main menu settings to default, simulating a fresh game start. Your seasons and saved files remain safe.
- Upon restarting, the game prompts you to select a skill level. Choose **Varsity**.
- For passing mechanics, select **Classic Passing**.
2. **Main Menu Settings**:
- Leave most settings at default, except for the following:
- **Penalties**:
- Turn off **Illegal Lineman Downfield**, **Intentional Grounding**, and **Roughing the Kicker**. Note: Illegal Man Downfield may still be called rarely.
- Adjust other penalties as listed in the "Penalties" section below.
- **Game Options**:
- **Fatigue**: 100
- **Injury**: 45
- **Minimum Player Speed Threshold**: 95
- **Auto-Subs**:
- Navigate to **More > Profile > Settings > Assign Auto-Subs** and set the following:
- **Offense**:
- **QB Sub In**: 1
- **QB Sub Out**: 0
- **HB Sub In**: 93
- **HB Sub Out**: 89
- **WR Sub In**: 82
- **WR Sub Out**: 72
- **FB/TE Sub In**: 93
- **FB/TE Sub Out**: 89
- **OL Sub In**: 25
- **OL Sub Out**: 15
- **Defense**:
- **DT Sub In**: 80
- **DT Sub Out**: 70
- **DE Sub In**: 80
- **DE Sub Out**: 70
- **LB Sub In**: 80
- **LB Sub Out**: 40
- **CB Sub In**: 25
- **CB Sub Out**: 15
- **S Sub In**: 25
- **S Sub Out**: 15
3. **Auto-Subs in Dynasty**:
- In Dynasty mode, set auto-subs for both teams in each game you play. Once set, they persist for the season but may reset if a coach leaves.
- Use the auto-sub values provided below for balanced player rotation.
4. **Team Ownership**:
- Use the **Home Team** as your primary owned team in Dynasty for consistency. The guide is tested with the Home Team, but using the Away Team showed no major issues.
- Select a neutral **Commissioner Team** (e.g., Air Force) that you won’t play or watch. This team is used for administrative tasks.
- **Gameplay Workflow** (e.g., LSU vs. USC, USC as Home Team):
- Own LSU, adjust depth chart and auto-subs, then retire the LSU coach.
- Own USC, make desired changes, and play the game.
- After the game, retire from USC, return to your Commissioner Team (e.g., Air Force), and trigger an autosave by entering and exiting League Settings without changes.
- Return to the main menu before re-entering Dynasty. This prevents gameplay glitches, even after restarting the console or deleting the profile.
- Avoid playing or watching generic FCS teams, as their auto-subs cannot be adjusted. Super Sim these games or watch key moments for fun.
5. **Clock Settings**:
- **Option 1**: 12-minute quarters with 12-second runoff for box scores resembling College Football 25’s sim engine.
- **Option 2**: 15-minute quarters with 12-second runoff for real-life NCAA box scores.
- Recommendation: Use 12/12 for the regular season and consider 15/12 for playoffs.
6. **Gameplay Notes**:
- Lesser teams may drop more passes, especially against strong defenses.
- Expect dynamic plays like blocked punts, kick return TDs, and punt return TDs, which occur naturally with these settings.
- The sliders produce realistic and varied gameplay outcomes after limited testing.
