USAWed Jul 02 2025

Top Quarterback in the SEC and Second Overall

Garrett Nussmeier, the LSU quarterback, is making waves before even stepping onto the field this season. In the upcoming College Football 26 video game, he's been named the top quarterback in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and the second-best quarterback overall.

A Clash of Titans

This ranking puts him right behind Clemson's Cade Klubnik, with both quarterbacks sharing a 92 overall rating.

The game, developed by EA Sports, is set to release on July 10, but those who pre-order the Deluxe Edition will get early access on July 7. This early release gives fans a chance to see Nussmeier in action before the real season kicks off.

Highly Anticipated Matchup

Speaking of the real season, Nussmeier and Klubnik will face off in Week 1 when LSU takes on Clemson on August 30. The game is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. and will be broadcast on WBRZ.

This matchup is highly anticipated, not just because of the rankings, but also because it's a chance to see two of the top quarterbacks in the game go head-to-head.

The Real Test

But what does this ranking really mean? It's a testament to Nussmeier's skills and potential, but it's also important to remember that video game ratings are just one piece of the puzzle. The real test will come when he's on the field, leading his team in real games.

Exciting Times Ahead

For now, fans can look forward to seeing Nussmeier in College Football 26 and then cheering him on when the real season begins. It's an exciting time for LSU football, and Nussmeier is at the center of it all.
