EA Sports College Football 25 is finally just around the corner. The video game franchise, which saw a hiatus of over 10 years, is finally getting a new installment which is set to release on July 19. Fans who pre-ordered the Deluxe edition will also have a three-day early access to the game.

Over the past few weeks, EA Sports has been continuing to build hype around the release of College Football 25. They gave fans a gameplay deep dive showcasing Michigan DB Donovan Edwards competing with content creator Bordeaux in the game. This weekend is also slated for online streamers and sports celebrities like LeBron James to stream on Twitch while playing the game.

Recently, Donovan Edwards shared a story on his Instagram. In the story, he seemed excited to pull his teammate Will Johnson's card from an Ultimate Team pack. The story gave fans a glimpse of the highest-rated EA College Football 25 player's UT card.

Fans quickly took to the comments section to share their opinions and debate the aesthetics of Will Johnson's UT card.

One fan commented about the card's design:

"Looks horrible."

However, another fan argued that the UT card design was well-made:

"Cool design."

This fan gave their thoughts on the card's design as well:

"Tf is that card art."

This fan suggested that EA Sports should focus on using real-life images of players on the UT cards rather than graphics:

"The need to use real pics and not ai."

Another fan questioned the need to play Ultimate Team in College Football 25 amid all the other available game modes:

"With everything else in the game why would you even play Ultimate team?"

This fan was excited about trying out Ultimate Team themself:

"I can’t wait to rip some packs on Monday."

One fan pointed out that Will Johnson's stats in the card does not seem to reflect him being the best player in the game:

"That looks like he is an 89 overall not a 96 or whatever it was"
