Nebraska football's mix of new explosive playmakers (especially at wide receiver) and returning second-year stars such as Dylan Raiola have put the Huskers on the map as one of the top offenses heading into the 2025 season. That includes being one of the top offenses in EA Sports College Football 26.

When the game releases on July 10, Raiola will be leading a Huskers offense onto the digital field that could be one of the most explosive in the game.

EA Sports gives Nebraska football an 85 overall, sixth-best offense in the Big Ten

The rankings were released as part of the game's "Campus Huddle" that previews new features to the video game and showcases how the real-life teams rank amongst each other. The Huskers landed at No. 24 with an 85 overall rating for its offense. Though, despite the same kind of excitement over the Nebraska football defense, the Cornhuskers were nowhere to be found in those unit rankings.

According to EA Sports, NU is the sixth-highest-rated offense in the Big Ten, behind No. 2 Penn State (91 overall), No. 3 Ohio State (91 overall), No. 11 Indiana (89 overall), and No. 19 Oregon (85 overall). It's a safe bet that if the Huskers rank that high in total offense in the conference in real life, Matt Rhule and company will absolutely take it.

The big question of course is just how much anyone can lean on EA Sports College Football to tell anyone anything. Some of the ratings are obviously based on real world football. However, there are plenty of players coming in that are simply predictions about how they'll perform with Nebraska football.
