Top 15 Programs to BUILD - EA Sports College Football 25

Enough about rebuilds. With the new college football video game coming out, EA Sports College Football 25, and only a few days away, many people have been talking about which programs they would like to play as to return to their former glory in dynasty mode. Bringing Nebraska or Miami back to their pre-2000s dominance, the military academies running rampant over the college football world again, or even teams like Tulane being good enough to get reinvited into the SEC. But after I read through what felt like the tenth list in a row that mentioned Colorado, I figured there are two different types of builders in dynasty mode: those who rebuild, and those who build.

Nick Saban was a rebuilder. We're looking for Bill Snyder. We want to build a team from nothing into a college football powerhouse. That's where the fun is at. We're here to build programs, not bring existing titans back to their former glory.

In this video, I look at 15 or so teams across 3 separate "groups" that have some of the most interesting play stories in the game. From schools to build into the modern day BCS busters (UMass, Kennesaw State) to schools that could make the jump to the Power 5 (Colorado State, UConn) to existing P5 schools that need a facelift (Indiana), I chose these schools because they made sense to me, but I'm sure I left a whole bunch of schools off that should be included. Let me know in the comments below.
