The hype continues to build over the release of EA Sports College Football 26 in a little over a month as fans wait with bated breath for the latest edition of one of the most storied video game sports franchises.
As the July 10 launch date nears, three of The Athletic’s EA College Football devotees in Chris Vannini, David Ubben and Antonio Morales shared their thoughts on the teams they’re looking forward to playing with in this year’s game. Of the triumvirate of respondents, Morales was the one who picked the Orange and Blue as one of the squads he is eyeing early on.
“I had the most success playing the game online with the Gators last year. DJ Lagway is a stud, can make every throw in the game and is really valuable in the run game. The offensive line was solid, and the run game was diverse with good formations, particularly out of the pistol. Jadan Baugh is a tough, physical runner as well.
“I play with the D-line when I’m on defense, and Tyreak Sapp is disruptive on the edge. Those players should all be better this year, so there’s a lot to like about Florida, especially if you’re playing with the Gators in Road to the CFP, where you can grind out long possessions during those three-minute quarters.”
Good call, Morales.
