Projecting the Overall Rating of Every WVU Player on College Football 25

Which Mountaineers break 90 overall on EA Sports' new video game, if any?

EA Sports' new college football video game will be hitting the shelves in less than two months!

How much love will West Virginia's roster receive by the rating adjusters? The truth is, we won't know until the game is released, but we'll project what EA will rate every scholarship player on the Mountaineers' roster.

Keep in mind that this is a projection of what I believe EA will rate the players and not what I would rate them as. So, don't get too upset with me if some players are a little lower than expected. EA typically rates pretty harsh, so I took that into account.

Also, there may be some players who opted out of the game or may not be included because they are a late addition or true freshman. EA has not revealed the full list of players who have opted in, nor have they provided clarity on the status of the incoming freshman class.
