The new College Football 27 video game releases in nine days, and the EA Sports crew is starting to reveal more about the game as it gets closer to its release date.

Today, the crew released the top-10 overall teams in each category: offense, defense, overall. EA Sports listed the Hurricanes as a 88 overall, 90 offense, and 86 defense.

Miami added quarterback Darian Mensah, who is expected to be one of the most highest-rated quarterbacks in the video game. The Hurricanes retained their entire running back room from this past season and returned Malachi Toney, who is on the cover of the video game.

On the defensive side of the ball, Miami took a hit on the defensive line by losing Akheem Mesidor and Rueben Bain. However, Mario Cristobal did a great job in the portal by grabbing Damon Wilson from the SEC while also returning solid production on the defensive line.

Six teams have a better overall than Miami; check out the full top-10 overall rankings down below:

Top 10 Overall Teams

1. Oregon - 91 OVR
2. Ohio State - 90 OVR

6. Miami - 88 OVR
7. LSU - 88 OVR

Not sure why they changed the rating system. There should be more space between top and bottom teams

Oregon is soft as baby sht and always seems small. They’ll be good this year, but can they win multiple games against the big boys in the playoff? I’ll believe it when I see it.

Oregon and Notre Dame get all the national media coverage, every year is their year, and then they **** the bed when it matters. Every single time.

Oregon gets an inordinate amount of love considering they've had their legs jacked back the last 2 playoff games.

Miami should have a 93 offense and 92 defense minimum.

Look man, you can talk all you want about talent and the most impressive roster, all I know is Miami, with an "inferior" roster to all those teams, played like a team comprised of convicts playing prison guards and Oregon/Notre Dame played like teams that think they should be handed a championship. Notre Dame literally thought they should be handed a playoff spot over a team that beat them. Oregon looked like Syracuse against Indiana.

We saw it for decades here at Miami, talent means absolutely nothing if the culture isn't right. If this Miami team plays with the same attitude as last years then they're going 16-0 and nobody is stopping them.

UGA fans thinking they should be ahead of Miami is ******* hilarious
