Road to Glory statistics are mathematically impossible and may affect awards

I am reporting a clear stat-tracking problem in College Football 25 Road to Glory on PlayStation 5.

 

I am playing as a 99 overall LSU quarterback named Loki Ragnarok. My season statistics show 206 completions on 250 attempts, 10,312 passing yards, 127 passing touchdowns, and 5 interceptions.

 

LSU backup quarterback E. Holstein recorded 15 completions on 18 attempts, 132 passing yards, and 1 passing touchdown.

 

Therefore, LSU quarterbacks recorded exactly 221 completions and 128 passing touchdowns.

 

The receiving statistics also show exactly 221 total receptions, meaning every completed pass is accounted for. However, the receivers are credited with the following touchdown totals:

 

82 + 52 + 11 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 163 receiving touchdowns.

 

That is 35 more receiving touchdowns than LSU's quarterbacks threw. The two leading receivers alone have 134 receiving touchdowns, which is already 6 more than the entire quarterback room's total of 128.

 

These numbers are mathematically impossible. A receiving touchdown from a completed forward pass must correspond with a passing touchdown credited to a passer. Because the team's 221 receptions exactly match its 221 quarterback completions, there are no additional completed passes from another player that could explain the discrepancy.

 

This may also be affecting individual awards. Wide receiver Kylan Billiot was credited with 82 receiving touchdowns and won the Heisman Trophy. My quarterback recorded 10,312 passing yards, 127 touchdowns, an 82 percent completion rate, and only 5 interceptions, but did not win it. If the award calculation used Billiot's incorrectly inflated receiving touchdown total, then this stat-tracking problem directly affected the award result.

 

My quarterback was automatically removed during numerous blowouts at halftime or during the third quarter. The remainder of those games was then simulated. Please investigate whether automatic substitutions or simulation are duplicating receiving touchdowns or failing to credit the quarterback.

 

This is not a subjective complaint about difficulty or award preferences. The statistics displayed by the game directly contradict one another.

 

Please investigate the receiving touchdown tracking, automatic substitution and simulation statistics, and whether corrupted statistics influence Heisman voting. Please also determine whether the same underlying issue exists in later College Football releases.

 

Players should be able to trust that the statistics and awards displayed by the game are based on internally consistent data.
