Rankings Week has certainly put EA Sports back in the headlines in the final days before it releases the highly-anticipated College Football 25 video game. Electronic Arts' selections for the toughest stadiums to play in, the best offenses, and the top defenses have given way to the king of all rankings, that of the best overall teams in the game this year.

Fans have been of very differing opinions on EA Sports' rankings up to now, with plenty of disagreement about the stadium poll, many wondering how Colorado appeared on a list of the 10 best offenses, and certainly how it got on a list of the 25 best defenses.
