Persistent Position Reset Bug in RTG Mode of EA Sports College Football 25

Issue:
I'm experiencing a frustrating bug in the RTG (Road to Glory) game mode of EA Sports College Football 25. Despite successfully completing position battles for a starting spot, my position is reset, preventing me from playing.

Details:

  1. East Carolina University:

    • Chose the Underdog path.

    • Simulated most games as a bench player.

    • Transferred to James Madison University after the first season.

  2. James Madison University:

    • Earned HB1 through practice and position battles.

    • Broke records and named best running back in college football.

    • Despite accomplishments, I was reset to HB3 at the season's end.

    • Transferred to Mississippi State.

  3. Mississippi State:

    • Earned a starting position (HB1) by the 3rd or 4th game.

    • Minimal playtime until becoming a starter, then broke records.

    • Reset to HB4 before a crucial game against Ole Miss in week 12.

    • Simulated the game (which we lost), earned HB3 the next week.

    • No playtime in the SEC championship against Georgia, resulting in a loss.

    • Minimal playtime in college playoffs despite winning HB1 position battles.

    • Ended the season with 1,400 rushing yards but offered a bench role.

    • Transferred again as a Junior, with limited interest from schools.

  4. UNC Chapel Hill:

    • Joined as a 3rd string running back.

    • Worked up to HB1 after 3 position battles and 4 weeks.

    • Reset to HB4 immediately after winning the HB1 battle before the next game.

Impact:

  • The random resetting of my position has significantly reduced playtime and enjoyment.

  • The bug persists despite accomplishments, coaching points, practices, and game performances.

Question:
Has anyone else experienced this bug? This issue has made the RTG mode unenjoyable, and I’m curious if there’s a solution or workaround. I am likely going to avoid this mode until this is fixed since I am only waisting the few seasons I have left in this career.

  • It's still happening. Went from wr1 to wr6 randomly after a game. Get yalls crap together please

  • Still happening in December. Worked my way up from walk on to HB1, played penn and scored 3 with 290 rushing yds and the next week I’m Hb3? Happened with my wr one too. So annoying that this hasn’t been even acknowledged and it’s december

    How can you have not fixed this? My player won the f'n heisman and suddenly became FB3 from HB1? What the **bleep**? This is immersion breaking. This will probably be the last EA sports game i ever buy.

    Marked as solved for "visibility." Yes, I can visibly see that it is now February of 2025 and this bug is still happening. It may be a complex bug, but don't mark something as resolved that is still clearly broken 6 months later.

    Still seeing this issue as of last night. One reason why I hate trying to play this mode. Sucks to work hard and win games and know your career is limited by a bug that they acknowledge and say they are working on but 11 months later and we have the same issue still. I will give the new game a chance but if this has not been addressed, RTG might be a lost cause with a lot of fans.

    How is this still marked as solved and not fixed? 

    Every season I have to start back as HB4 and work to HB1. 

    When will this be fixed?

  • EA this still ain’t fixed in 2026. It’s putting player overall rating before coach trust when we grind for coach trust. Why hasn’t this been fixed, you are ruining a good game and just pushing your users away after you’ve already collected your money. Shame. Fix it. 

  • This is not “solved” an entire year later. Makes this mode almost unplayable. Fix your game that your customers payed hard earned money for.
