The most wonderful time of the year for college football fans -- bowl season -- is upon us. And this year, there's more to get excited about than ever with the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff. In addition to the CFP, there will be 36 bowl games in all.

There are 47 total bowl games in the 2024-25 season, including four college football playoff first round games, four quarterfinal games, two semifinals, and the national championship on Monday, January 20.

College Football 25 sees the return of beloved modes like Dynasty and Road to Glory. Dynasty is an excellent return to form, with player recruitment more detailed than ever before. In Road to Glory, players juggle the priorities of college life, making decisions about when they should train, study, or work on their brand.
