How do you change the direction of the run play without changing formation in online head to head? Exhibition mode allows it with directional stick on PS5, but online seems to be different. I have to flip entire play.
Playing defense on 3rd down isn't for the faint of heart, lock up 1st and 2nd .. now 3rd and 17, my corner LITERALLY steps to the side and let's the receiver run free, no animation or battle at the line just steps to the side then proceeds to chase ... seems like every teams D line has at least a Lawrence Taylor or Aaron Donald no matter who you play, but your d line has to fight for their lives just to get a pressure.. few broken things that they hopefully patch up, I don't want it easy just reasonable
@ajilemedia9996 the animation where you CB just steps to da side has been plaguing madden and frostbite game engine for years now. Being ncaa is on frostbite expect all the madden bugs to transfer over. Just is what it is
I really appreciate this video as someone who has basically never played a football game. These games have little to no tutorial so I was getting really frustrated. This is pretty helpful. Thanks!
Ult team, I felt that but then finally hopped on UT and was stunned a little to say the less, they gave that mode more purpose knowing most are playing Road to Glory or H2H
Don’t forget you can “Hesi” as a runner. Makes your player slow down a tad and rock step a little. This is a great move to do when you have cleared the LOS and you have a defender isolated. Push down on your right analog to hesi and then hit them with a juke/spin move right after. Basically you’re setting up the defender and it makes the cpu not know what to do. Takes some practice but once you get the hang of it it’s awesome and makes for some nasty clips.
Thanks big time, this is literally my first time playing any football game since John Elway on NES. This game is just amazing but I suck terribly right now.
@@Sora-se2vr I’ve just fallen out of love with it, there’s lots of reasons really, but for me the way the sport is going and how it’s majorly shifted from just playing the game to the whole lifestyle around it. None of the players care for the sport and it shows massively especially the last few years, it just feels like to me the magic has gone and it’s going down a very different path than what it was even 7 or so years ago.
coming from someone who hasn’t played a football video game since 2009 i found this by far the most helpful and easy to understand tips video on the game. thank you!
I’ve been loving my linebacker RTG! I’ve been playing on all American and it’s definitely hard to tackle but it feels like the right amount of difficult
Thanks for this video. Have t bought Madden in 15 years and got this game yesterday and I lost my 1st 6 games trying to get used to everything. This video is very helpful.
Thank you I need this because the amount of pick I been throwing is crazy but now I know why you just earned your self a new sub and a supporter thank you
If you guys want to do the Hesi step that was shown off in the trailer all you gotta do is hold RT and flick down on the right thumb stick and you can combo this move into any other move and leave the defense stunned 💪🏾 🏈 🥁 🎺
Just here to say your running tip of not springing immediately came through. Holding back and finding the lane bailed me out of a 3rd and 16. One thing I love about this cane is that for whatever reason, it's much better at teaching football than Madden. I never really understood the nuances of football but its fitting the college came would be the one to teach me.
The jet touch is good to use because you can mix in other look from that same formation or play like the fake jet inside zone. Now your defender thinks you’re doing a jet touch to the right but actually handing it off to the RB to back left.
The game is great. Visuals and atmosphere all are great feels authentic. The game play may have a few issues but it seems like we have a lot of control compared to madden. Just the thing holding me back atm is my muscle memory for madden controls not these ones 😂 it’ll take a bit of getting used to
Real College football is full of broken tackles though. Actually it's more poor tackling than bad tackles in real college football. The difference between the NFL is huge.
The only thing they might need to tweak is the broken tackles , I now it’s a lot of that in college football but my god , sometimes a player will break 6 tackles in one play lol
Question to everyone who’s been playing, what’s the best strategy you’ve found for dealing with people putting 4-5 wide and abusing the scramble with a duel threat qb? It’s so easy to make a man miss in open field that a spy isn’t efficient and qb contain opens up the middle of the line. Cover 2 zones are okay except man is superior in this game.
i implemented everything from this video into my next game and went to 4OT. so id say it definitely helped, im just naturally bad at defense in general 😂
as someone who has never played a madden game but was convinced by my brother to get College Football 25, this is extremely helpful, I hope I dont get whooped next time
Dude I love this game . I know it’s not perfect and it’s a little mroe “madden reskin “ than people hoped for. But I don’t care . Love it. They nailed fhe stadiums and atmosphere . Gameplay , again not perfect , but so smooth . I’m not gonna buy thsi game every year if they decide to go that route and make a new one annually , but after an extremely long hiatus , I’m thrilled to have this game again. Michigan WILL beat ohio state again this yaad …even if I have to do it myself ! 😂
Man the dynasty mode is hard, i havent gotten a football game before ive played my friends on madden and ncaa but this is the first one ive been grinding out.
I've been playing Madden for years. This game is quite difficult on Varsity and above when it comes to passing. In Madden I pretty much knew which routes would get open before the ball was even snapped, now defense actually plays as they should.
I can't stop playing it. After finishing the 10-hour trial, I bought it right away. I haven't bought a game at full price in years. I was waiting too long, I remember on ncaa 14 I had started something like 10 careers and here I am doing worse! I play 3 games and start a new career lol! As an Italian guy and American college lover, I go crazy seeing the attention to detail, the stickers on the helmets, the mascots and all those little secrets that, for logistical reasons, I don't know. I could easily start a road to glory with every college! The details of all the stadiums, the uniforms....love this game! Ps. Btw i hope in a patch that fix the zoom camera that has no angle!!
This game is better than I could have imagined. First game I played as Wisconsin against Minnesota for the axe on heisman difficulty. Opening kickoff for a TD and a pick 6 on my first defensive play. Won 38-10. Such a blast!
I had such a hard time yesterday with my homeboy qb scrambling the entire game. I don’t play football games or watch it but I was stressed 😅 I tried doing the QB spy but I don’t know if I was using it correctly but thank you I’ll try again lol
Hurdles are much easier in this game I get at least 2-3 a game, I need to test it but I noticed you seem to get more air/better odds of being successful while holding sprint
The key to winning in ncaa isn’t learning how to beat defenses, you can always do that even without schemes it’s learning how to play defense that really wins you games
I don't suppose you've heard anything about timing for an early patch/update? Lots of Dynasty stuff specifically around simulating stats, upset frequency, and ranking logic that I see complaints on. I know they can't get everything immediately, but would be nice to know what their plans are before kicking off an online dynasty.
it’s a lot of glitchy stuff that happens in the game but overall i can’t complain. but the way the ball just goes so high in the air when you touch pass is CRAZY😂

Facts 😂💯
Facts
If you play on heisman it's hell but fun
Yeah the third downs plays re crazy I played on all star and somebody caught it on three people while getting tackled mid air
At 41 years old it's kinda neat that hurdle spin buttons are the same since my first Madden in 94
At 42, I feel this
I'm 50, practically dined on Madden 94 with my college roommates every night and agree, this is very much appreciated.
I really appreciate this video as someone who has basically never played a football game. These games have little to no tutorial so I was getting really frustrated. This is pretty helpful. Thanks!
They def should have a training section like in Madden. It's actually quite a few quality of life things missing.
Mini games
It's in ultimate team
They do…..
I didn’t even know they had one either thanks for sharing.
Ult team, I felt that but then finally hopped on UT and was stunned a little to say the less, they gave that mode more purpose knowing most are playing Road to Glory or H2H

I’m from the UK and have since given up on “our” football so I’m really getting into American Football. Big help thank you!
Why though? Genuine question since I’m an American and a big EPL fan, with man utd being the team I support (i know how original right)

Nigerian-American no point in giving up both. American football is lit but futbol is the greatest sport in the world
Buffalo Bills and Wyoming Cowboys
lol it’s the worlds football now. Is that what you don’t watch it now?
Enjoying this game
Thanks for the tip with waiting to sprint while running. 👍 I was just holding the R2 bottom right when I got the the ball .
It’s hard to remember not to press RT the whole time but it makes so much of a difference😂
@brennancrocker9388 😂😂haha Absolutely. Trying to Break the old R2 Habbits.
I've been playing Madden and CF2014 for years - we do it - now we won't!
Yep great tip to remind people with
@@brennancrocker9388facts😂 it helps them stick and move way better
I also love that jet sweep because it counts as a pass, so it’s easy to pad your stats with it.
I found that out yesterday and have been padding ever since😂
The game is amazing
@JC-mb1jmWhats carrying the game is the atmosphere of the fans
@JC-mb1jmI mean for a first game back it’s dam good
@JC-mb1jm that’s what you came up with to complain about? A halftime show 😱
Ikr
@@1234herbie litteraly good gameplay. These Developers Care. Madden Dosent have this shit. This is as good as it gets. This ain’t madden
coming from someone who hasn’t played a football video game since 2009 i found this by far the most helpful and easy to understand tips video on the game. thank you!
Tip 1: Don't play LB in Road to Glory cause you can barely tackle anyone
SKILL ISSUE !!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been loving my linebacker RTG! I’ve been playing on all American and it’s definitely hard to tackle but it feels like the right amount of difficult
They got rid of suction tackling man. You actually got to hit the guy this year. Skill issue 🤷♂️
100%. Over pursuing players happens FAR too often
@M7CHVEL hit? You literally have to be in the dudes jersey for them to wrap up!! The physics make zero sense
I've been playing football games since madden 2000 and I had no idea nickel was for 3 recievers and dime was for 4. That's a huge help. Thanks!
Thanks for this video. Have t bought Madden in 15 years and got this game yesterday and I lost my 1st 6 games trying to get used to everything. This video is very helpful.
Don’t give up bro you got this ❤
This was me last night lmao. 🤣 I got humbled so quick
I love your channel and videos and plz keep up the great work
Biggest thing for me is understanding how defense works. Happy the game is back
Thank you I need this because the amount of pick I been throwing is crazy but now I know why you just earned your self a new sub and a supporter thank you
Loving the game so far! So nostalgic it’s been over 10 years
Defense in this game is a nightmare
Not really
What do you mean
Facts
As far as what tackling? Or getting to the QB?
@@Skinner90210it's gotta be tackling shits so hard to tackle
If you guys want to do the Hesi step that was shown off in the trailer all you gotta do is hold RT and flick down on the right thumb stick and you can combo this move into any other move and leave the defense stunned 💪🏾 🏈 🥁 🎺

Also if there are 2 safeties high the scissors concept is good to run the safety has to choose between the corner or the post route
The jet touch is good to use because you can mix in other look from that same formation or play like the fake jet inside zone. Now your defender thinks you’re doing a jet touch to the right but actually handing it off to the RB to back left.
You've been the football review GOAT for years. Keep up the awesome work

Very good tips to help out
Yes I was waiting for a tips video for this game
I need a field goal kicking video lol I have yet to convert one! 😂
These broken tackles are too much but it’s a good game
Exactly 💯
Real College football is full of broken tackles though. Actually it's more poor tackling than bad tackles in real college football. The difference between the NFL is huge.
I’d agree but I’ve seen way crazier in actual college ball
@@ianwint2292definitely think this was on purpose
I said the exact same thing
The only thing they might need to tweak is the broken tackles , I now it’s a lot of that in college football but my god , sometimes a player will break 6 tackles in one play lol
Everyone got butter jerseys on
to help with that hold LT/L2 and tackle with a/x if u try and hitstick u got a big chance of missin the player
juss gotta learn how to tackle gang but u not lying
Sliders on 75
Jet touch pass is OP !
Thanks for the upload Eric
Great video-thanks so much. Nice to know that I've been doing some of these things already, and some additional easy tips to use.
Thanks for making this video. It would be extremely clutch if you set up chapters for ease of access with specific topics. Thanks again!
Good video 🙌🏼
Zach Branch was in the transfer portal and I signed him at OSU. Just won him the Heisman and it’s mainly BCS of the jet touch pass.
Tip: Keep an eye on your gpa, if you become ineligible you can’t play,it cost me three games and a chance at the playoff .
The games pretty good some times a bit glitchy but it fun and I’m having a good time rebuilding Miami

Excellent video. I was looking for a video and you delivered. The format and approach is spot on. Don't change a thing for your next how to videos.
I’ve honestly been very satisfied with this game 🤷♂️
Thankss so much for the help. Life saver for the tips.. I've been trying to flip plays out of the huddle and now i finally figured out how to. 👍🏼
Stepping up in the pocket, finally!
This is a hidden gem. Thank you for the tips.
A lot to learn as a new player

This is my first football game. This has been a godsend.
Compared to madden this is way better and I have been waiting for this game
Thanks… FCS has been lightening me up… but I will continue to restart and get this week 1 win no matter what 😅

What position do you recommend to control on defense?
I’m trash at the game so I needed this
Eric my friend you always come thru for me when I need to get defense right in the beginning. Thanks always bro 👍🏿💯
These are banging tips thanks

Can we get tips for how to play defense efficiently 😅
Subbed. Appreciate it boss
To click on your defender to make a tackle is a bit delay
The key to winning in ncaa isn’t learning how to beat defenses, you can always do that even without schemes it’s learning how to play defense that really wins you games
Love the game I happy that the cpu actually plays defense need little changes but overall A++
Bro this really helped

Tutorial on the pre snap options is helpful
9:30 defense
i wish you luck with your channel dawg
I want to see the hype is about about to play it right now on my ps5
it’s a lot of glitchy stuff that happens in the game but overall i can’t complain. but the way the ball just goes so high in the air when you touch pass is CRAZY😂
Enjoying the game, only complaint I have is the pass rush. It’s ridiculously easy to get to the quarterback. It can be very frustrating
Thanks for this. I haven't fooled with Madden in years so I'm rusty on my EA football skills.
