Paired with an unstoppable offensive line, Jalen Milroe for Alabama is a surefire way to fall in love with a mobile QB. He can throw well enough but really excels when you get him out of the pocket and working downfield. Make sure you at least get one game in as the Crimson Tide and you'll see what we mean.

Cover athlete Travis Hunter is as entertaining in the game as he is in real life. Hunter can return kicks, plays defense, and is arguably the strongest all-around threat at WR in the game. The hype surrounding the Colorado prodigy is strong, but it is validated in College Football 25.

#1: Ollie Gordon - HB - Oklahoma State
