College football fans are always obsessed with EA Sports College Football 25. And before the official release on July 19, things got even more exciting when EA dropped the rankings of the top 100 players in the game.

Two specific factors are given special attention in EA ratings: a player’s performance and their marketability. Depending on those factors, Georgia’s star running back, Trevor Etienne, has been given an overall rating of 88.

Along with that, he earned the All-American Bowl. Leaving high school as a top-ranked running back, he joined Florida over major programs like Clemson and LSU.

There he was named to the SEC All-Freshman Team and helped Florida in a 31−28 victory against USF. In addition, he was named the Doak Walker Running Back of the Week for a 29−16 upset victory. In 2023, he joined Georgia and recorded 753 yards for 8 touchdowns. So, you can understand how remarkable he is as a player. Let’s move to his popularity and EA ratings evolution.
