Enabling play selection in College Football 25 is easy to do, but you only have a set number for each match. To enable play selection in College Football 25 Road to Glory, follow these steps:

  1. Before a play, hit the designated button (Y on Xbox, TriAngle on PlayStation).
  2. Select a play from the options provided.
  3. Run the play.

Play calls that lead to success can boost Coach Trust, enabling you to close down your rivals for a starting spot or extend your advantage. Increasing your Coach Trust boosts the number of play changes available in each match.
When you have no play changes available (or are yet to unlock the feature), you only have one option of play for each down, which is decided by your coach—and the wrong play in a situation can have serious consequences.
Don’t use play changes on every play, however. Instead, pick and choose your moments. My advice is to save them for important points in the game, such as a third down or inside the two-minute warning.
