The Bruins’ virtual 2024-25 season kicked off with the release of EA Sports’ College Football 25 video game. This marks the game’s return after a decade-long hiatus, now featuring 85-player rosters across 134 NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision teams. UCLA’s roster includes 71 real-life players, supplemented with randomly generated ones, adapting to the latest changes like conference realignment and the 12-team College Football Playoff.
Receiver J.Michael Sturdivant shines with an 88 overall rating, becoming the highest-rated Bruin. At the Men of Westwood celebration event, Sturdivant expressed his excitement, highlighting his virtual speed. Fellow players also shared their thoughts, humorously wishing for higher ratings. Quarterback Justyn Martin laughed about his 73-speed rating, noting even linebackers being faster, while middle linebacker Oluwafemi Oladejo, with an 81-speed rating, joined the playful banter.
Rico Flores Jr. and Alani Makihele stand out as notable omissions from the roster, though Flores anticipates being added in future updates. Freshman Cameron Jones, a recent St. John Bosco graduate, remains unfazed about his absence, having just opted in. As excitement builds in the virtual realm, the Bruins focus on gearing up for the real 2024 season, with training camp expected to commence in August.
