Where Oregon Ducks rank among top teams in EA Sports College Football 26
The EA Sports College Football 26 video game is set to drop in a matter of weeks, so new details and trailers have been pouring out over the last months as fans prepare to dive back into the beloved gaming franchise and get onto the digital gridiron. On Friday, the team rankings were released for the top 25 squads in the game, giving us a preview of who the best units will be in the game based on the overall rankings. Unsurprisingly, some of the teams at the top of the rankings are who you would expect — Georgia, Ohio State, Penn State, Texas, etc. But where do the Oregon Ducks fall? Down at No. 9. Here is a look at the full rankings: It may be surprising to see the Ducks behind schools like Texas A&M and Clemson. Still, it's fair to acknowledge that there's some "need-to-see-it" skepticism surrounding Oregon going into 2025 with a new quarterback under center and a predominantly young and unproven roster, as talented as it may be. In a majority of preseason rankings and polls, the Ducks are positioned higher on the list, typically between the 5-8 range; however, according to EA Sports, they sit lower on the list.
