During a recent live stream on his YouTube channel, Hunter explored the NCAA 25 revamped version of the Buffaloes. He showed frustration over his player ratings, particularly his catching abilities, which he deemed disappointingly low. Although Hunter’s overall rating placed him at the top of the Buffaloes WR list, his catching rating was the lowest among all – 63.

“Oh hell! A 63? Now this ain’t right!” exclaimed Hunter, visibly perturbed by his subpar catching rating. “This thing ain’t right. I know I ain’t that a**. Am I really that a**, bro?” he questioned, reflecting on his virtual representation’s perceived shortcomings. Additionally, Hunter voiced dissatisfaction with his speed ratings in the game, feeling that they did not accurately reflect his abilities on the field. “Bro, I am slow as s**t. Why am I so slow?” said Hunter. While Hunter is reacting to his rating in the game, their star QB Shedeur Sander is vying for the NCAA Football 25 cover.

In the past, the cover of the NCAA football video game typically featured players who had transitioned to the NFL. However, recent changes in NIL rules and regulations have made current college football stars like Shedeur Sanders eligible for consideration. Shedeur’s impressive stats from the previous season, despite a 4-8 setback, coupled with his sizable social media following and $4.8 million NIL value, make him a compelling candidate for the cover alongside his iconic father.

Notably, aside from Shedeur, there are other players whom EA could consider for their cover, such as Travis Hunter, Jalen Milroe, and more.
