'College Football 25' reveals Ohio State's defensive ranking

We’re getting closer and closer to the release of EA Sports revival of its college football franchise, College Football 25, and as we do, the company is releasing tidbits of game plan, rankings, and more.

On Thursday, the EA Sports team provided a ranking of the top defenses in its game, and wouldn’t you know, Ohio State has the top ranked unit in the game with a rating of 96. It makes sense with all the Buckeyes have coming back on that side of the ball after being one of the top defenses in the country on a real field of play last season.

What might be more interesting is what teams are just behind OSU. In case you were wondering, in the No. 2 spot is Georgia, followed by Oregon, Alabama, Clemson, Notre Dame, Michigan, Texas, Penn State, and Utah rounding out the top ten.
