EA College Football 25 trailer has Ohio State fans riled up: "You stay hating" "They hate Ohio State bro lol"

The wait is over for fans of the much-anticipated EA Sports College Football 25 game which will be released on July 19. The official trailer for the game was released on Friday and as usual, that opened its can of worms.

Fans of the 134 football programs featured in the game noticed different aspects of the game from the trailer including the realistic commentating but Ohio State fans weren't too happy with the trailer.

The CFB Report account on X pointed out that no Ohio State Buckeyes prospect has ever graced the cover of the famous game in its storied history.

"You stay hating on Ohio State," one fan tweeted.

"Michigan buys off the media. The polls. The tournaments. The shoe folks (Jordan). They are the worst," another fan tweeted.

"You are absolutely correct sir “Rob Jones, the senior production director of College Football, was Holt's first hire. A devout Michigan fan with memorabilia all over his office," one fan tweeted.

Buckeyes fans piled on in the comment section criticizing some of the supposed failings of the game as directed towards their team with most seeing it as an inherent bias.

"This is generational hate," another fan tweeted.

"They hate Ohio State bro lol," one fan tweeted.

"EA Lowkey funny for this a Michigan alumn definitely involved in this somehow," another fan tweeted.

"In the espn article it says one of the main developers is a die hard michigan fan," one fan tweeted.

College Football developers promise 'authenticity'

The College Football game has been one of the cornerstones of college sports for a while with several generations pointing to it as an enduring childhood memory and the clamor to have it back since it was discontinued in 2013 was intense.

When its return was announced, there was widespread celebration and fans asked for the game to stick to the ideals that made it so revered during its heyday.

The EA Sports senior vice president Daryl Holt revealed the vision of the rebooted game and promised authenticity to fans of the iconic game during an interview with USA TODAY.

“EA SPORTS College Football is BACK! We’ve felt the passion and anticipation of college football fans every step of the way since we first announced this game, and we’re ecstatic to finally be able to show everyone what we’ve been building,” said Daryl Holt.

“CFB 25 is built with authenticity at its core, inspired by experiences our fans have loved from our games, and fully evolved to reflect modern college football – all of which will immerse them in the sights, sounds, and true-to-life gameplay of the sport they love.”

The Road To The College Football Playoff Mode promises an experience like no other as players will be able to choose a program that they will attempt to take all the way to the football playoffs while battling against the best teams in the country.

The Dynasty Mode will enable players to create a coach and choose a program to take charge of while dealing with recruitment and coaching games including using the team builder function.

The game seems to have adhered to the traditional aspects that have made it so popular while still staying true to the times with the addition of aspects like the Road to the Football Playoffs mode.
