Your Playing Style rating in College Football 25 is based on your in-game stats and varies for each player archetype, so you may need to prioritize improvements in specific areas to prevent a star player from leaving.

For example, Rushing Yards Per Game needs to be improved for a running back to stay, while Passing Yards are required for quarterbacks—and there are plenty of other stats that affect your Playing Style rating too.

If you’re struggling to improve your rating, increase the length of quarters in games to give yourself more opportunities to make plays and improve your stats, especially if you’re playing with very short quarters.

As mentioned before, each player archetype is tied to different requirements for Playing Style. To make things easier, we’ve compiled this information in the table below showing all the specific stats you may need to improve and the positions they impact.
