Top 15 Programs to BUILD - EA Sports College Football 25

  • Enough about rebuilds. With the new college football video game coming out, EA Sports College Football 25, and only a few days away, many people have been talking about which programs they would like to play as to return to their former glory in dynasty mode. Bringing Nebraska or Miami back to their pre-2000s dominance, the military academies running rampant over the college football world again, or even teams like Tulane being good enough to get reinvited into the SEC. But after I read through what felt like the tenth list in a row that mentioned Colorado, I figured there are two different types of builders in dynasty mode: those who rebuild, and those who build.
    Nick Saban was a rebuilder. We're looking for Bill Snyder. We want to build a team from nothing into a college football powerhouse. That's where the fun is at. We're here to build programs, not bring existing titans back to their former glory.
    In this video, I look at 15 or so teams across 3 separate "groups" that have some of the most interesting play stories in the game. From schools to build into the modern day BCS busters (UMass, Kennesaw State) to schools that could make the jump to the Power 5 (Colorado State, UConn) to existing P5 schools that need a facelift (Indiana), I chose these schools because they made sense to me, but I'm sure I left a whole bunch of schools off that should be included. Let me know in the comments below.

    2:17 As an Ohio State fan, I am glad that you're picking the entire MAC conference to build especially with all of the Ohio teams. Akron, Kent State, Miami of Ohio, Ohio Bobcats and Toledo had a first round NFL pick this year. Just because these Ohioans don't get OSU scholarships do not mean that they aren't good. Don't sleep on the MAC.

  • @WolfDB
    @WolfDB 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +36

    You mean besides just making a bunch of FCS teams or teams that used to have Football programs? Vanderbilt would be a REAL challenge. In what might be the most famous conference in football, yet NEVER being actually relevant in football, they could be a very fun challenge

    I like the spin. If you’re not planing to build a MAC school at some point what are you even doing? Which MAC school you pick can say a lot about you. I’m personally doing Toledo because when you have a missile outside your stadium pointing directly at your rival, that’s the kind of pettiness in a rivalry I want to be associated with. (If you didn’t know, Toledo has a 1960s US Army Missile outside their stadium that is directly aimed for the 50 yard line of Bowling Green’s stadium)

    • @lukeontheplains
      @lukeontheplains  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      for me, it's always been Akron. Their stadium is very nice for how small it is and recruiting as the bottom rung of a very tall Ohio ladder is always a fun challenge.

    Hawai'i seems like so much fun. The state is beautiful, the uniforms (both retro and modern) are FIRE, and you can basically build them a new stadium guilt-free, without erasing the history of a long-standing venue. Like, seriously, Hawai'i is as gorgeous as it is and yet guys like Tua Tagovailoa and Marcus Mariota are leaving the Oahu to play on the mainland?

      Hawaii really does just suffer from location. A lot of those guys leave for the mainland because I can guarantee flying from Hawaii to the mainland anywhere from 4-7 times a year is quite draining. Honolulu to LA is 5 1/2 hours. That’s roughly the same time from Philly to LA.

    It's an interesting premise, but the game always makes builds too easy. Just have successive winning seasons and you're getting 3-stars and 4-stars. Get two ten win seasons and you start getting the occasional 5-star and its a short year or two to the 10-peat. I hope they make it more challenging this time around, but thats something I don't necessarily expect.

Like I'm a K-State guy and I can't put us up there for the same reason. There's a lot of schools like that who just don't need a build anymore because the foundation is already there

    I always found P5 rebuilds like Indiana more fun/challenging than MAC schools. You can get even a bad MAC school to the 8-10 win range pretty quick since even your good conference opponents are often outside the top-40. Running the Big Ten gauntlet as Indiana is a whole different monster.
    My order of attack with a new game is usually: 1) Ohio State national championship, 2) get Buffalo to the Big Ten, 3) Indiana national championship, 4) Army, 5) triple option all day long
