Tide Slaughter WKU in EA College Football 25 Simulation

With the start of a brand new college football season and the recent release of EA College Football 25, we decided to have some fun and simulate Alabama's opening matchup against Western Kentucky.

Each simulation will account for injuries, depth chart changes, time of day, location, and weather. Every new simulation will take place in EA College Football 25's "Play Now" game mode to allow maximum control of each variable that can affect the game's outcome.

Every sim will be on "Heisman" difficulty, which is the highest difficulty level in the game.

This simulation, including ones later in the season, is just for fun and isn't meant to be taken seriously, as EA College Football 25 is not a reliable sim model.

Result:

Alabama - 76

Western Kentucky - 30

In the simulation's 46-point destruction of Western Kentucky, the Crimson Tide were led by 457 passing yards and six passing touchdowns. Alabama's leading receiver was Kendrick Law, who racked up nine catches, 197 yards, and a touchdown. Additionally, Wideout Kobe Prentice tacked on two scores of his own.

Justice Haynes also added 206 rushing yards and a score on the ground to balance out the Crimson Tide offense.

On the defensive side of the football, USC transfer Domani Jackson snagged two pick-sixes and earned four pass deflections, while linebacker Deontae Lawson led the team in tackles with 15.

Although a video game is not the best predictive model to forecast the outcome of games, hopefully, this is a preview of things to come for the Crimson Tide.
