The 2024 college football season will be a historic one in a number of respects.

First and foremost, there's the impending expansion of the College Football Playoff from four to 12 teams after a decade of existence. Then, there's the small matter of the Pac-12's controlled demolition—with pieces of that once-great conference set to begin play in the ACC, Big 12 and Big Ten.

That's to say nothing of the imminent—and highly anticipated—return of an up-to-date, officially licensed college football video game with EA Sports's College Football 25 due out July 19. This will certainly be a year to remember.

However, the more things change, the more they stay the same. With a lot of familiar names from throughout the rechristened "Power Four" in the fold, here's a look at the top 25 overall teams in College Football 25 as announced by EA Sports Friday morning.
