College Football 26 - Dynasty & Team Builder Deep Dive
Learn more about the changes coming to Dynasty Mode in EA SPORTS College Football 26.www.ea.com
Sounds very promising but as long as 90% of RB/WR/CB recruits are white the immersion just isn't there for me.
Lmfao, I don't hope they add some customization to the players. I had never had more than one player on defense with dreads.
Just Saw the dynasty deep dive - pretty excited here. going to interesting to see if recruiting is as easy as it was last year.
Apparently it will be much harder to stack classes and multiple top guys per position group each year. We will see….. i just hope all of the recruits don’t look like Santa while being a high school senior….
any word on if weight will actually matter? tired of guys moving 220lb running backs to edges with insane high rating. hopefully there is some body type nerfs to kill that and 190 pound TEs who got moved over from receiver.
Yes. They did mention something on the website write up about more realistic position changes to combat that. So that RB to Edge would be unplayable because he would lack all of the positional skills despite the athleticism.
They also noted weight progression through the years, where a incoming freshman would gain mass each season and fill out his frame.
So if you have a freshman 160 lb wr on the field. He probably won’t beat many press coverages.

Wait that’s racist. . . Na you’re right, lol
all white and given jersey number 46 or some stupid **** and you cant change it
I had great success getting white running backs and black punters.
Too bad we can’t get this 2026 recruiting class in the game because we’re gonna need it
Visits actually give you the most interest gained of any other option. You'll get a huge boost as long as your grade isnt low in the area you choose for the visit.
Saw a preview of the game.
We might have a god tier playbook this year. Need to see the detailed rosters

Not sure I agree with the Carson beck rating. Why does he have 87 throw power, but a 40 rating for locking his car?
Yes mentioned it above. Going to stick with them in regs
In 25 I never scheduled visits. They never seemed to make a difference.
I was in a 9 person online dynasty and visits were what always brought me to the top especially going against other users. That and the hard/soft sell glitch lol. Sometimes I'd also remove a recruit and them back to get another visit in.
An improvement over last years…with the exception of taking away “Dig Return” out of Bunch Wide and my 2 favorite running plays: “QB Slot Option” out of Trips Offset and “Stretch” out of Pistol Wing Slot. Having 2 extra Bunch formations and the addition of 2 Singleback formations is going to be real nice.
The thing I’m probably most bummed about is them taking away my 3 favorite hot routes : Wheel, replaced by Return (inverted zig). “Flat” route was replaced by “Slot Fade” and “Hitch” was replaced by a “Wr Choice”. All 3 were very good at manipulating flat routes and creating space. The wheel route in particular is going to hurt, lol, because I used these vs Cover 2 Man and Cover 3 Match for near guaranteed 1 play TDs.
Yeah, there's always going to be changes year over year that impact some people more than others....depending on your play call tendencies.
The one I'm gonna miss especially with these new hot routes is Gun Ace. Now that we can FINALLY hot route zigs to tight ends, they remove our Ace package.....fml.
I run 90% of my offense out of Gun Trips and Gun Y Off Trips. The play "Flood HB Swing" out of Gun Y Off Trips is easily my favorite play to use online and it's back. It's a quick snap, everything beater once you get the muscle memory down.
Out of Gun Trips, that nasty shallow cross out of the play "All Go" is also still there. That route destroys man coverage.
I hear you on the hot routes but there are solutions. Several plays in the Miami playbook have flat routes stock....so just put those in your audible and build from there. You can re-create the hitch by hot routing a curl and stemming it down.
Not perfect, but at least you can adjust to it.
Love Flood HB Swing. That, Smash out of Trips Offset along with Drive and Stick Wheel out of Trips were my favorite , non-RPO, quick snap plays.
I agree, that cross in “All Go” was unstoppable vs Man…especially with Restrepo’s cutting ability. Was also deadly vs standard Cover 3 and Cover 4 because if your opponent tried to manually cover the crosser there was a delay curl route by the hb that was sure to be open.
I also see that we finally got a legit auto-motion play in Gun Trips called “MTN Wheelies” and a HB Slip Screen that uses the same auto-motion. Can’t wait to try those two out.
