Alabama Coaches to Feature in EA Sports’ College Football 26
In an exciting development for college football enthusiasts, Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer, along with offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb and defensive coordinator Kane Wommack, will have their likenesses included in the upcoming EA Sports’ College Football 26 video game, set for release on July 10.
This news, confirmed by Alabama on Friday, marks a significant shift as the previous installment of the franchise, relaunched in 2025 after over a decade, did not include real coaches due to licensing issues. However, the resolution of these issues means that over 300 real coaches will now be represented in College Football 26, bringing authenticity to the gaming experience.
The inclusion of DeBoer and his staff not only highlights the prominence of Alabama in the college football landscape but also reflects the game’s emphasis on realism. Additionally, the Crimson Tide will be further represented on the game’s cover, featuring wide receiver Ryan Williams alongside Ohio State’s Jeremiah Smith.
The return of EA Sports’ college football franchise has generated much anticipation among fans, and the inclusion of actual coaching figures is sure to enhance engagement with the game. With more than two years of development focused on integrating real-life elements, the latest installment promises to deliver an immersive experience for players and fans alike.
As excitement builds leading up to the summer release, College Football 26 aims to captivate audiences with its upgraded features while celebrating the essence of college football culture. Football fans are bracing for what is expected to be a standout addition to the series, paving the way for future installments.
Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches.
