Ever since NIL and Revenue Sharing entered the College Football landscape, it's given college football fans some great benefits. Among the best changes to come from the players earning compensation is the return of the video game series everyone loves. This Summer, EA Sports will release their third edition of their college football video game series in it's new form.
The video game series that was once known as "NCAA Football" started as Bill Walsh College Football before becoming College Football USA, and then NCAA Football from 1998 through 2014. Licensing issues caused the game to go away much to the disappointment of fans, but under the new rules, the series returned with EA College Football 25.
The return has brought a ton of excitement, not only for the game itself, but some of the other factors. Among the best new additions has been the fact that EA Sports releases rankings from the player ratings to the toughest stadiums in college football.
Autzen Stadium earns 6th place in toughest stadiums rankings
On Monday Morning, EA Sports announced they would be rolling out their rankings this week, starting with the toughest places to play before diving into team and player ratings later on.
The debates start today.

Surely everyone will agree with this list. pic.twitter.com/XuVl6pu2it
For all the love that the SEC and their environments get, it's clear that the Big Ten is on the same level with some of the best stadiums in the country.
If Oregon fans wanted to, you could certainly make a case that Autzen Stadium should rank even higher on this list. Tiger Stadium's environment depends a ton on whether or not it's a night game or if LSU is actually good that season. Beaver Stadium much like LSU depends a ton on the level of game and if it's a "White Out". Bryant-Denny Stadium is another case of the environment depending on the opponent as the fans show up in a different way for a big game.
Autzen Stadium will only continue to get its flowers as the Ducks continue to compete for National Championships. Homefield advantage will only continue to be a major boost for the Ducks as teams continue to travel West, and with the expectations as high as they are in Eugene, Autzen Stadium could push Oregon over the top.
