To showboat in College Football 25, hold down LT, RT, A on Xbox or L2, R2, X on PS5 to initiate showboating movements as you run with the ball.

It’s quite simple to do, but here’s a quick little run-through and what you need to do in College Football 25 to showboat:

  1. Boot up and begin a game of College Football 25.
  2. Play until you get into a position where your player can run to the endzone unopposed.
  3. Get to within a few yards of the goal line.
  4. Now, hold down LT, RT, A on Xbox, or L2, R2, and X on PS5 on PlayStation.
  5. If done correctly and your player is safe, they should perform a series of over-the-top moves to pre-celebrate the impending touchdown.

Showboating is fairly disrespectful, and it can be risky if not done at the correct moment. But if all things come together nicely, it’s got a great look and vibe. Plus, if you’re playing with a friend, it gives you a chance to rile them up and make the competition even feistier.

It helps if you’re in one of the loudest stadiums in College Football 25, too. You can also check out how to do a bunch of other celebrations, as well as the best XP sliders.
