Oregon releases inside look at Autzen Stadium in EA Sports College Football 25

Oregon rates as one of the better teams that you’ll be able to play as in EA College Football 25. That means taking the field in Autzen Stadium which, as of today, now has a first-look in the game.

The Ducks shared the clip of their venue in Eugene earlier on Monday. It provides a panoramic view of what the virtual field will look like and gives an exciting preview of what’s to come later this month.

“We know where we’ll be July 19. #GoDucks,” Oregon Athletics wrote on the post on Twitter.

Again, Oregon will rank among the best teams in the return of this game. Autzen itself finished just outside of the Top-10 at No. 11 in their Toughest Places to Play. On3’s Andy Staples disagreed with that placement as he himself had it at No. 8.

Then, as far as the team, the Duck offense finished second behind only Georgia at a 94 overall while the defensive unit rated third behind just Ohio State and the Bulldogs at a 90 overall. In their overall power rankings, that makes Oregon the No. 3 team at 93 overall after the Buckeyes and ‘Dawgs.

EA Sports ranks Oregon, Autzen Stadium as No. 11 in Toughest Places to Play

Eugene, Oregon is home to one of the toughest venues to play in in all of college football. EA College Football 25 has reflected that in their rankings as far as home-field advantage.

EA College Football 25 rated Autzen Stadium, home of the Oregon Ducks, at No. 11 in their Toughest Places to Play. That’s due to how they factored in historical stats such as home winning percentage, home game attendance, active home winning streaks, team prestige, and more.

Autzen Stadium officially opened on September 23rd, 1967. However, it underwent a $90 million development in 2002 to add additional seating as well as improve aspects of the venue such as restrooms and concessions, an entertainment center, walkways and concourse areas, and ticket distribution plus guest services windows.

Following the renovation, Oregon can host a capacity crowd of 54,000 fans.

The school named the stadium after Thomas J. Autzen, a lumberman, sportsman, and philanthropist. After his son attended the University of Oregon, he created a foundation to generate funds for the new stadium. That was completed under Leo Harris, their former athletic director. The field, though, was named after Rich Brooks, their all-time winningest coach with 91 wins over 18 seasons, in 1995. Mike Bellotti, his successor, then eclipsed him with 116 over his next 14.
