Player editor
Can we please have the option to edit the appearance computer generated players in offline dynasty. it really kills immersion having all white running backs and black punters galore and don’t get me started on the names which are beyond ridiculous. if total editing is somehow in violation legally, how about giving us a random generator for appearance and names. everything else I’ve heard about cfb 26 sound awesome,Exporting/Importing Draft Classes
Old school question here. Back in NCAA 15, we could export a draft class and import it to Madden. With College Football 25, it was a disappointment for franchise guys to see this feature was not included. Of course that would mean being able to import draft classes into Madden. Do you not think it would be a selling point when bundling Madden and College Football with these features in each? I miss being able to build a college program and then being able to draft my guys on my Madden team. please bring it back!2025 was 99% towards a real coach mode. Can it please be 100% for 26?
There was already a slow-sim mode that showed every play from broadcast view with full AI control of all players. Just let us do game management and play-calling from here like in 2014. It makes recruiting so much more dynamic when my own skill is taken out of consideration. If I want my own skill tested, than RTG is already there and fantastic. The current "coach mode" is functionally useless as is, and is more of a helper mode that still requires you to manually control the QB.RTG High School Mode
Am I the only one who is vastly disappointed in the decision to make RTG high school mode a collection of moments that you play instead of playing out a full season or AT LEAST playing through the playoffs? In my personal opinion, playing through your full senior season was one of the best parts of this game mode. It was a lot of fun to pave your own path and slowly acquire scholarship offers from better teams throughout the course of a season. I get that some people may not want to play a full 10-12 game season plus the playoffs, but I really liked how NCAA '13 would let you set the schedule duration so you could choose how many games you get to play out. I'm optimistic that it won't be as bad as the initial report sounded, but I think that the vast majority of OG players were looking forward to playing full games and extra customization.College Football 26 Team Builder
Calling all Team Builder fans! Starting June 30th at 12PM ET, we’ll be preparing our Team Builder website for College Football 26 launch. While you won’t be able to create new teams during this window, you will still be able to download teams to use in CFB 25! Want to know more about what’s coming to Team Builder? Check out our deep dive: https://www.ea.com/games/ea-sports-college-football/college-football-26/news/cfb26-campus-huddle-dynasty-deep-diveShowcase game
I’d like to propose a feature that could take Dynasty and Road to Glory modes to a whole new level of depth and immersion: a fictional EA All-American High School Showcase Game. This would be an all-star game featuring the Top 100 high school recruits in the game’s recruiting pool. Think of it as EA’s version of the Under Armour All-America Game or the All-American Bowl—fully integrated into gameplay with unique presentation, player scouting opportunities, and dynamic outcomes.The showcase game would take place in mid-to-late December, after the high school season ends but before National Signing Day. Dynasty Mode Integration If you’re recruiting multiple top-ranked prospects, you’re invited to attend or coach one of the teams. You get to see recruits in action, test how they perform in your system, and make more informed recruiting decisions. Performance in this game could subtly affect final player ratings, commitment probability, or traits revealed. Road to Glory Integration If your RTG player is ranked in the Top 100 nationally, you’re selected to play in the game. The showcase becomes a final opportunity to boost your star rating and attract more offers. Strong performances could unlock new college options or shift your existing recruiting interest levels. Additional Features That Add Value Trait Reveal System: Discover hidden attributes like leadership, clutch performance, or injury tendency based on gameplay during the showcase. Recruiting Buzz Meter: Post-game feedback system showing how player performance has impacted their recruiting stock. Interactive Broadcast: Commentary highlighting matchups, coaching interest, and upcoming recruiting drama. Optional Combine Events: 40-yard dash, cone drills, and position-specific challenges could precede the game as part of a combine-style week. EA All-American Branding: Unique uniforms, field graphics, and overlays to separate this game from typical matchups. Why It Matters Makes recruiting interactive and skill-based, not just menu-driven. Builds a bridge between high school performance and college expectations. Adds depth and immersion to the Dynasty pipeline and Road to Glory experience. Creates memorable moments and more story-driven recruiting cycles. Thank you for considering this feature. I believe it would add another layer of authenticity and player agency to the game and could become a fan-favorite addition to future titles.
SUGGESTION: College Player to NFL Player into Coach Career
Okay. So I’ve been a long time NCAA and Madden player and I want to see EA connect experiences between Road to Glory and Dynasty and deeper immersion with Madden Career and Superstar Mode. We can already transfer our College Football Careers to Madden and play our Pro careers out, but what if we could transfer that player back to College football as a coach/coordinator?! Using a file upload from Madden Career after retirement that actually uses the stats acquired as a Madden player into the stats you will start with as a coach/coordinator in College Football! Imagine being a RB in High School and College, winning the heisman trophy and uploading that player into Madden. Then, enjoying a productive career in Madden and retiring from play as a Super Bowl winner, MVP etc, you move on to coaching in college. Uploading that same career back into College Football and starting your coaching career. Because you were a running back in the Pro’s, you get offers to be an OC in college and you start off with skill tree points that favor the running game because you obviously know a lot about that position and part of the game. The immersion on this would be incredible and would tie together the Dynasty and Superstar Career modes SO WELL! Plus after a productive college career, then maybe the coaching carousel could offer an NFL coaching position unlocking the option to upload that save game coaching career file back into Madden to start an NFL coaching career! The replay ability would be endless! Going from a High School player, to a College Star, to a NFL Star, then back to College as a legendary coach and finally to the NFL to coach at the highest level! Growing your player through each stage! It’s like a marriage between College Football, Madden and that NFL Head Coach game years ago. I’d love to hear anyone’s thoughts on this idea. I haven’t seen an idea like this posted anywhere else. If you think this is a good idea, let’s up vote this to get the devs to notice it!Co op Online dynasty- play same team with friends
Can we please make a co op feature for online dynasty in ncaa 26? Making it able to play on the same team as friends online. This was such a cool feature on the early ncaa games. I can’t imagine this being a tough add to the game!! We all live in different states and want to be able to run a dynasty together. Even if that means one guy running the dynasty, and being able to invite the others into the switch sides screen. Please make this possible!! I’ve seen so many requests for this since last years game came out. EA_Kent
Coach Mode or Die
There is a whole community of thousands out there like me, who played the original games exclusively in Coach Mode. It is by far the most realistic way to play the game. I don't know why they didn't include it in '25, and I doubt they'll bring it back in '26. Without true Coach Mode, there is no reason for me to ever buy the game again.Divisions =/= Protected Rivalries, and never have
This was one of the most infuriating things about NCAA25. Generally really enjoyed the game. On the field it is a hell of a technical achievement. But off the field the relative inflexibility of the custom conferences system in this game compared to past editions or even reality takes me out of it. For anyone who does not know, "protected rivalries" is a system used by conferences (and NCAA Football 12, 13, and 14) to ensure a matchup is played annually when it otherwise normally would not be. In the previous games, it existed where you had a conference of 12, 14, or 16 teams and you picked each team's permanent cross-over opponent. For example, back in the days of the SEC East and SEC West, Alabama would be Tennessee's permanent cross-over opponent, thus protecting that rivalry from the randomness of the schedule. Same thing for Auburn and Georgia, or NC State and North Carolina in the ACC. It was labeled as "protected rivalries" in the custom conferences screen. Importantly, you got to pick which rivalries got protected and which ones did not. This is critical as conferences move away from divisions. This system existed because divisions were not an adequate structure for preserving all of the annual games each team had. Divisions require everyone to play each other in the same division; they are a small round-robin unit, which does admittedly preserve some games on an annual basis. However, it comes at a much higher cost on the team's schedule, because instead of the rivalry taking up one game on the schedule, putting them in the same division means they share all the same opponents. This is not a good system where teams have an all-important rivalry but otherwise do not share any other rivalries. In NCAA25, if you were to revert the SEC back to the 12-team setup that existed prior to 2011, Alabama-Tennessee and Auburn-Georgia would not be protected. They might still play each other, but you are playing the odds; with 8 conference games, and 5 conference games needing to go to playing divisional opponents, that leaves 3 divisional cross-over games. With 6 opponents in the other division, that means there's a literal 50/50 chance that Alabama and Tennessee would play each other in any given season in your dynasty. To solve this, does it really make sense to put Tennessee in the same division as Alabama, when Tennessee has no other common rivalries with Alabama? In the current state of the sport, protected rivalries are used by conferences in the post-division format, to ensure that teams do not skip major rivalries when drawing opponents. The Big Ten and ACC protect several rivalries for each team as their conference memberships ballooned in the 2021-2024 realignment. As an example of what schools' schedules would look like without protected rivalries, lets look at the Big Ten. For Michigan, you would draw 9 teams (9 conference games) out of 17 possible (18 teams minus yourself), leaving you with only a 53% chance that Ohio State-Michigan would be played in any given year. The Big Ten was not going to lose Ohio State-Michigan just because of a scheduling glitch. However, this protection does not exist in the game. It may appear to be there the first few years as you cycle through the railroaded conference schedule (assuming you don't change the membership at all), but once those games are gone (either because you added a team or played too many seasons for the default schedule to run out), it reverts to the mere random draw. I mean god forbid you try to do something like add Notre Dame to the Big Ten, and yet if you do the entire thing breaks! And to be clear, this model of protected rivalries without divisions (though it should exist both with and without divisions) predates 2024. The FCS has used this model, with the Big Sky using it after Northern Colorado joined in 2006 and the conference got too big to do a round robin. The Big Ten used to use it from 1992 to 2011 when it had 11 teams. The 10-team SEC that existed 1966-1991 never played a 9-game round robin, and also used protected rivalries. Mere random draw on the schedule has never been a part of the sport, and protected rivalries as a scheduling concept predates divisions. Protected Rivalries gives conferences and players flexibility and control over the state of the sport. Divisions are not protected rivalries, and have never been considered as such by any stakeholder in the sport, and they were not presented this way by EA until they were deceptively presented this way this past year. I hope EA rectifies this and gives us a more customizable and accurate way to fix our dynasties and RtGs.Separate download for Ultimate Team
Having a choice to download the full game or the full game + Ultimate Team would be great. Sort of like the way Call of Duty has a few different download options. Accidently clicking into Ultimate Team when you start the game almost makes you want to just close and restart. Especially for someone who won't ever touch the game mode, it just takes up space. Nothing major, just a little annoyance I sometimes have when accidently clicking into CUT.RTG POSITION OPTIONS
I believe that ea sports was better when it gave the player the option. For the previous title it did not include any other positions such as OLB, SS,FS,TE,OL,DL,K,P. To make college football a more authentic experience the player should be able to experience that lens from every angle. We should be able to play all positions as we were able to with 2014 and previous titles(excluding TE,OL,K,P - madden 06 did all). Ea this is a minor but major detail to the game feature we the player would like to have back as an option.camera view
Honestly it's probably just me but I think they should add a new camera view for road to glory. For instance when I play MLB and or playing CB the zoomed in view I don't like it or the other view like when it zoomed out and behind the offense. It kinda makes me feel off and it seem harder to take the right angle in order to make the tackle because when I just played road to glory and I missed a motion swing pass to the RB that I read PERFECTLY and I thought I and the right angle but I guess I was to far infront of the RB and missed the tackle.The Top 25 Teams in College Football 26
