The 10th of July marks an early Christmas for sports gamers and gleefully indoctrinated college football fanatics alike. From Ann Arbor to Austin, from Pullman to Provo, from Tallahassee to Tuscaloosa, EA Sports College Football 26 is BACK.
As the second annual installment of the resurrected Electronic Arts bestseller following an 11-year break, fans are naturally restless with excitement over mechanical improvements, new features in game modes like Dynasty and Road to Glory, and slick aesthetic flourishes that capture the immersive, one-of-a-kind pageantry of college football.
But if you're being totally honest with yourself, you're not too proud to admit that what you REALLY want to know are CFB 26's player ratings -- especially if you're a fan of the Texas Longhorns, whose squad rolls into a new season absolutely loaded.
Let's get to the numbers! Whether you run an Arch Manning fan club, use AI tools to depict Colin Simmons as a cheetah taking down an antelope with John Mateer's head, or wonder if Cole Brevard and DJ Campbell could bench press a Hyundai, check out Texas' team scores and their College Football 26 player ratings.
