EA College Football 26 Roster Update: What changed for Mississippi State

The first major player roster update for EA College Football 26 dropped Saturday morning with more than 1,000 new players added to the game.

Mississippi State had two new players added to its roster and a few random players removed as a result. Also, Nevaeh Sanders is no longer listed on Mississippi State’s roster in the game. He’s still listed on the official Mississippi State football roster.

That’s most likely an error or mistake with the most recent update and should be corrected in the near-future, unless there’s something EA Sports knows we don’t.

Also, this roster update is coming out a couple of days before teams start releasing official depth charts. For anyone looking for a prediction about what Mississippi State’s depth chart will look like, don’t use this.

Seriously.

Don’t do it.

There’s more than a couple of players listed at positions we know they won’t be playing.

For example, Trevion Williams isn’t a defensive tackle and Luke Work has told us he’s been working at the two guard spots, but is listed as a left tackle in the game.

And the way the video game is set up doesn't allow for team-specific position. So, that's why Isaac Smith is a strong safety (which actually is pretty accurate), but you won't see a "star" position which is what Smith will be listed as on the depth chart. There's also not a "jack" position, which will likely be Branden Jennings who is listed as a Sam Linebacker in the game.

So, don’t make your depth chart predictions based on this. You will be wrong and, hopefully, that matters more to you than it does EA.

One final note, no player ratings have changed. All that’s been done is players have been and removed. Actual changes to player ratings will come once games are played.

Without further ado, here’s the updated Mississippi State roster in EA College Football 26 (players in bold were added in this update):
