College Football 25 Will Try To Get You To Cheat on an Exam or Plagiarize and Risk Your Eligibility

For whatever faults College Football 25 may have — mostly just that it's hard as shit — nobody can say it isn't immersive or that EA left a stone unturned.

When you load into Road to Glory, you'll be met with all sorts of situations a real college football player would face: practice, NIL dealings and more, all while having to maintain your grades to still be eligible to play. You'll need to allocate some of your "Energy" resources each week to studying or your GPA will tank and you'll be ineligible. But you can also apparently take your chances with some shortcuts and hope you don't get caught — though the academic advisors seem to keep a pretty close eye on things.

I love this feature if there's actually a chance you can get away with it. It's a little less cool if you get busted every time. But give me my odds on the screen and let me make a decision. If there's a 40 percent chance I can copy a paper and get away with it and I really need to use my Energy elsewhere that week, fuck it, let's go for it.

Just be aware when you head into RTG that there will be opps trying to bring you down and you do actually have to hit the books a little bit.
