Travis Hunter becomes highest-rated in EA Sports College Football 25
Travis Hunter, the two-way sensation for the Colorado Buffaloes, has taken the college football world by storm and is now the highest-rated player in EA Sports College Football 25, boasting a 97 overall rating on Wednesday. Hunter has been a dynamic force on both offense and defense, a rarity in modern college football. Through just five games, he has put together an impressive stat sheet that showcases his versatility and dominance on both sides of the ball.
On offense, Hunter has caught 46 passes for 561 yards and 6 touchdowns, establishing himself as one of the top wide receivers in the nation. His ability to create separation from defenders and make contested catches has made him a favorite target in Colorado’s explosive offense. His skills as a route runner and his speed in the open field have drawn comparisons to some of the best receivers in recent years.
Defensively, Hunter is just as impactful. He has recorded 16 tackles, forced a fumble, defended 3 passes, and intercepted 2. His instincts, athleticism, and ball-hawking abilities make him a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks and offensive coordinators. His versatility allows him to match up against an opponent’s best receiver and lock down half the field, a rare trait for a defensive back.

Hunter’s performances have catapulted him into the Heisman Trophy race, a significant achievement considering the award has historically favored offensive players. If he continues his stellar play, Hunter could become the first primarily defensive player to win the Heisman since Michigan’s Desmond Howard in 1991, a remarkable feat that would further solidify his place in college football history.
