Texas Longhorns among the 10 best defenses in ‘College Football 25’

‘College Football 25’ ranks the Texas Longhorns defense among top 10

The college football season is just over eight weeks away, and for the first time in over a decade, college football fans will have a brand new video game to preoccupy that time. It is already expected to be one of the hottest games of the year even though it won’t officially be released until July 19.

However, with the game being on hiatus since 2013, EA Sports has been dropping teaser trailers for the new “College Football 25” that includes fun features like the toughest stadiums to play in and team rankings

As the Texas Longhorns transition from the Big 12 to the SEC this year, one of the biggest challenges will be adapting to the speed and physicality of the SEC. The Big 12 has been traditionally known more as an offensive league with guys like Patrick Mahomes and Baker Mayfield dominating the league in recent years.

Over the past few years, many thought that the Longhorns’ move would be hard for them because of their defense, or lack thereof. Yet, heading into the 2024 season Texas will have one of the strongest defenses in the country as they are the No. 8 ranked defense in “College Football 25.” The Longhorns’ defense is an 88 overall and is the third highest-rated SEC defense behind only the Georgia Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide.
