WATCH: EA Sports College Football 25’s failed attempt at recreating Wisconsin’s ‘Jump Around’

EA Sports College Football 25’s adaptation of Wisconsin’s famous ‘Jump Around’ tradition was shown by a recent post on X.

The short, 18-second clip showcases Badger fans jumping simultaneously before the start of the fourth quarter. But they are not jumping to House of Pain’s ‘Jump Around,’ but instead to a different song. That is due to the video game not being able to secure the rights to the mid-1990s hit.

That creates an animation that should feel a bit odd to Badgers fans. The game accurately shows the entire crowd jumping simultaneously as the game enters the fourth quarter. But it’s impossible to ignore the EDM song blaring in the background.

 

Maybe it’s best to just mute the television when the third-quarter clock hits 0:00 while playing the video game.

Wisconsin celebrated the tradition’s 25th anniversary last fall. The anthem first played in Camp Randall on Oct. 10, 1998 in a homecoming match vs. Purdue, per the Wisconsin Alumni Association.

EA Sports College Football 25 will become available to the public on July 19. Viral clips of UW’s stadium entrance, menu screen and highlights from running back Chez Mellusi and Will Pauling have made their way onto social media platforms.
