Figuring out how to slow down some of the toughest players is critical in College Football 25. Quinshon Judkins is one of the top players in the EA Sports-developed title, as the Ohio State Buckeyes running back is seemingly impossible to stop when he gets downhill.

Let's take a look at Quinshon Judkins in College Football 25 and discuss some ways to slow him down to force either punts or empty possessions against Ohio State.

Who is Quinshon Judkins?

Quinshon Judkins is the junior running back for the Ohio State Buckeyes. He had a dominant 2023 season as he finished with 271 rushing attempts for 1,158 yards (4.3 yards per carry) with 15 rushing touchdowns as well as adding 22 catches for 149 yards (6.8 yards per reception) and a pair of touchdown grabs.

He is one of the best overall running backs in college football in real life and in College Football 25.

How to defend against Quinshon Judkins

The way to defend against Quinshon Judkins in the game is to simply stack the tackle box when he is on the field. That will cause Ohio State to run passing plays, and Judkins is not as good of a player in the passing game as he is in the running game.

You also need to make sure there are multiple defenders around, as he can force broken tackles easily. Quinshon Judkins is a tough player to slow down, but if you focus on him as the game-changing player he can be and put the Buckeyes in passing situations, it will help slow him down a bit.

Users need to control the linebacker that is assigned to cover Judkins when in man coverage and make sure he doesn't get up the field and disguise coverages to make it seem like blitzes are happening, but dropping into coverage so there are more defenders around the football.

What makes Quinshon Judkins so difficult to defend in College Football 25?

Quinshon Judkins is one of the toughest players to keep bottled up, as he has some of the best stats in the game. He is the second-best running back with a 95 rating, but that is where things begin.

Judkins' 89 speed and 93 agility make him difficult to catch if he finds an open field. However, even if you manage to get to him, it is not a guarantee that he is going down to the ground. He has a 95 break tackle, which is tied for the highest out of all RBs in College Football 25.

He also has a 93 spin move to make defenders miss him entirely, including having the "Platinum 360" ability, which makes his spin moves incredibly difficult to defend against. He also has a 98 carry rating and 92 stamina rating, making him overpowered in the game.
