Here’s the best CB archetype in College Football 25.

Of all the positions you can pick for College Football 25 Road to Glory, we think CB is by far the toughest to play of them all. There's no worse feeling than biting on a fake or getting burned deep, so we want to make sure you have the best archetype possible to dominate at cornerback. Here's our clear best pick.

Best College Football 25 Road to Glory CB archetype: Zone

Between all three options for the CB archetype in College Football 25 Road to Glory, we have found Zone to be the clear winner. This archetype has the highest ceiling for Quickness stats, which give your player Speed and Acceleration. These two stats are the best two in the game, we think, so you'll want to do whatever you can to get them, typically.

As you can see below, you'll also have access to lots of upgrades on Hands stats, making interceptions far easier. This might make you struggle a bit in man coverage at first, but once you get enough speed built up, it shouldn't be too hard to make up any lost ground.

For badges, we love Knockout and House Call — especially when it comes to locking down WRs and getting more interceptions. Look to upgrade these and your Quickness stat tree as your top priority, then look to things like Ballhawk and Hands stats. Anything you can do to help keep you nimble and able to break up passes should be your top priority.
