When EA Sports relaunched its college football video game franchise last year, one of the key features was the return of home-field advantage, represented by “stadium pulse.” For the 2026 edition, that element plays an even bigger role, with increased confusion for opposing offenses in the loudest stadiums.
To make that work, EA Sports had to rank the loudest, toughest stadiums to play in — a process that always sparks spirited debate. While the rankings will be updated throughout the season, they need a starting point. On Tuesday, EA Sports unveiled its list of the 25 toughest places to play in College Football 26.
Unsurprisingly, the list is dominated by SEC and Big Ten venues, which account for 19 of the top 25 spots — including nine of the top 10, with Clemson as the lone exception.
