How to throw a lob pass in College Football 25

In College Football 25, throwing a lob pass could not be easier. All you have to do is tap the receiver icon that you want to target. Holding the button down will change the pass type to a touch pass, while holding it down to the maximum amount will result in a bullet pass.

What are the key mechanics for throwing a lob pass?

The key mechanics of throwing a solid lob pass in College Football 25 is to have a quarterback with deep accuracy, as typically lob passes are going down the field, as we will touch upon later. The receiver gets a step on the defender or is beating zone coverage and would catch over the shoulder.

In terms of the throw itself, people tend to press LB/L1 for higher passes as well, and then, when receiving the pass, either press Y/Triangle for an aggressive catch if it is contested or X/Square for an RAC catch.

Can one use the lob pass in different situations?

The lob pass can be used in a variety of scenarios during the game, but it is most commonly employed on a streak or a post route where the receiver beats his defender.

Assuming the opposing defense is in man coverage and the wide receiver has a step on the defensive back, throwing a lob pass will result in a higher arc, landing in your receiver's arms and resulting in a completed pass over the defender.

The lob pass can also work in situations like a crossing route (drag, slants, etc.) when there is a bit of an opening. If you were to throw a bullet pass, it has a chance of getting intercepted, so a lob pass can be used in that situation as well.
