With the release of College Football 25, many fans who have never played a Madden video game or one of the previous NCAA games will have the opportunity to do so. Choosing a decent playbook is critical for ensuring success.

A good offensive playbook is the best way to help the user team dominate on this side of the ball. But, with so many types of offensive playbooks to choose from, which one should players choose to give them the best shot at victory?

Here are some of the best playbooks to guarantee that the quarterback can throw for many yards.

The Best Passing Playbooks in College Football 25

Air Raid

The Air Raid offensive playbook is centered around passing plays. This type of playbook is quarterback-friendly, as around 60% of these plays are passing-based, allowing the player to be able to quickly move the ball down the field.

For these types of plays to be successful, a strong set of wide receivers are needed. They do not only need to be able to catch the ball but also be quick, as many of these plays are on the long side. This being said, players will need to be able to read the defense, as the risk of interceptions may be high.

Veer and shoot, and Run and Shoot

Both the run-and-shoot offense and its variation, the veer-and-shoot offense playbooks, are somewhat linked to the Air Raid style. They both favor deep passes that will allow the quarterback to gain many yards.

In the run-and-shoot offense, the quarterbacks will need to see where the wide receivers will end their run while committing to the pass. It is one of the more difficult offensive playbooks to pull off. But if done well, it can be used to dominate the opposition.

The veer-and-shoot offense playbook is a combination of run-and-shoot style passing plays with the occasional WR route from an option playbook style. This kind of offense was championed by the likes of Robert Griffin III during his time at the Baylor Bears, where they became a top-five offense.

Pro Style

This type of offense is more akin to what is seen in the NFL than in College Football, but it can be used to help the passing game.

It is all about exploiting the weaknesses of the opponent and requires a quarterback who is versatile enough to adapt to an ever-changing situation.

This style is not for everyone, but those who want something more like what they see in the NFL (which is becoming more reliant on the passing game) should give the Pro Style a try.
