Transferring an athlete’s set of skills to the video game world is an inexact science, especially when there are 136 college football rosters to assemble (welcome to the FBS, Delaware and Missouri State).
While Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith and safety Caleb Downs are the two highest-rated players in EA Sports College Football 26 at 98 and 96 overall, there are a handful of other Buckeyes one could argue were undervalued by the game’s scouting team. Wide receivers Brandon Inniss (80 overall) and Mylan Graham (78 overall) feel like obvious candidates to outplay their virtual marks, though it’s understandable they landed at those ratings given the lack of production to this point in their careers.
