Right now, there are a few notable ratings that may raise some eyebrows namely that both of Virginias top quarterbacks are listed below an 80 grade.

Positions could change as well.

Other than Noah Josey starting at left guard, the rest of the offensive line could shift perhaps Metcalf moves to center, or Boley to the interior.

EA College Football 27 will be available on multiple consoles, as well as mobile.

Fans can play as Virginia, filling the roles of Justin Speros and Tony Elliott, as well as the Cavaliers on the field.
