Worst rated teams in College Football 26

College Football 26 has over 100 schools, and some of them have pretty poorly-rated squads in this year's release. Schools in the game are rated based on their squad strengths.

Lowest-rated schools in College Football 26 There are different reasons why a school's rating is poor. It's primarily due to a combination of poor offense and defense. Rarely, some teams strong in one area and very weak in the other. In the table below, I have included all the teams that are rated between zero and one-star squads. Team name Star Rating OVR OFF DEF Akron Zips 0.5 61 61 61 Golden Flashes 0.5 64 64 64 Arkansas State Red Wolves 1 69 69 69 Ball State Cardinals 1 62 64 61 Buffalo Bulls 1 69 69 71 Delaware Blue Hens 1 67 69 66 Fiu Panthers 1 69 69 69 Georgia State Panthers 1 65 66 64 Jax State Gamecocks 1 67 69 66 Kennesaw St. Owls 1 66 66 66 Missouri State Bears 1 65 66 64 Mew Mexico Lobos 1 67 69 66 Old Dominion Monarchs 1 64 64 64 Akron Zips is this year's worst-rated team, and with some distinction. Its OVR, OFF, and DEF ratings are all limited to 61, which is the lowest. Its squad is rated at a mere half star, along with Golden Flashes.
