Have you experienced anything like this in the game?
College football fans have been all about EA Sports College Football 25, which was released this week. The reviews among fans have been glowing and rightfully so. But as hard as EA tried to perfect this video game, a few mistakes ended up slipping through the cracks.
A podcaster named Jason Kirk is among those who bought the game. He played one contest between Western Kentucky and Kennesaw State. When it was over, he noticed something unusual enough that he posted a screenshot to social media:

Yep, that’s the Notre Dame Leprechaun somehow celebrating a win with the Owls’ cheerleaders in Bowling Green. This apparently isn’t the only such instance because the replies to this tweet indicated that unrelated mascots were popping up in other games.
Chalk this up to a history of glitches in EA football games. One oldie but goodie popped up in Madden NFL 2007 (warning: NSFW language):
Sigh. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Have you ever played “Madden NFL” and realized you could win because you kept running the ball, and the opposing defense couldn’t stop it? That was Notre Dame during one of its second-quarter possessions against Clemson. Ten of the 11 plays on the 78-yard drive were runs, and the Irish didn’t move backwards once. It culminated in this 5-yard touchdown run by [autotag]Drew Pyne[/autotag], who got some assistance from a [autotag]Michael Mayer[/autotag] block:
Drew Pyne takes off for the @ndfootball touchdown! 💨#GoIrish up two scores over Clemson.
The touchdown extended the Irish’s lead to 14-0, which is where the score stood at halftime. Even with 30 minutes still to play, it’s become clear that the Irish are a threat to the Tigers’ ascent this season. It’s possible that the first half is wiped out by a dominant second half for the Tigers, and they escape South Bend with their perfect record intact. Right now, it’s looking like they’ll be lucky to have that happen.
Here are some Twitter reactions to Pyne’s touchdown:
