College Football 25: Realistic Sliders​ for Simulation Gameplay

College Football 25 can be quite a difficult game if you use the right settings. Playing against the CPU no longer feels like a trivial task, as your opponent will start to make every play and leave you with zero margin for error throughout the entire game. While playing College Football 25 on the highest difficulty level does present a daunting challenge, there’s even more you can do to simulate what it’s actually like to play football at the college level.

That experience comes down to sliders, which are individual gameplay settings you can alter in and out of a match. There are sliders for your team, your opponents, and other areas of the game. If you want the most challenging experience possible in CFB 25, then you can simply set all the sliders to their most difficult levels and head into a match. However, that’s not as realistic as our sliders, which offer a solid balance of difficulty and fair gameplay.

You can see our realistic sliders for CFB 25 in the guide below.
