Memorial Stadium is not among the most difficult places to play in CFB25

As part of your College Football 25 Deepening the gameplay, EA Sports is releasing several ratings and rankings this week. On Tuesday, they’ve released their 25 toughest places to play in college football.

Of the top 25, seven current or future Big Ten stadiums were in the top 25. Ohio State Ohio Stadium leads in fourth place, State of Pennsylvania Beaver Stadium comes in 6th place, Oregon Autzen Stadium at nº 11, Michigan Michigan Stadium comes in at 16th place, Iowa the spooky Kinnick Stadium is listed at #20, and State of Michigan Spartan Stadium closes out the Big Ten showing in 22nd place.

Among the notable reviews is Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium.

Although it’s over a decade old, previous iterations of EA Sports’ college football games have had Memorial Stadium as one of the most challenging places to play college football on an annual basis.

However, since then, the Huskers have certainly struggled both overall and at times at home. Since 2014, the Huskers are 35-31 at Memorial Stadium.

That said, while the Huskers have struggled at home as of late, at least compared to their dominance at Memorial Stadium prior to the last decade, it still has to be one of the toughest places to play in college football.

EA Sports said it considered the following when ranking the most challenging places to play.

Regardless of the results on the field, Cornhusker fans pack Memorial Stadium every week. Entering the 2024 season, the Huskers had a streak of 396 consecutive sold-out games. The Huskers’ Friday, Sept. 20 matchup against Illinois, a 7 p.m. matchup, is on track to be the program’s 400th consecutive sold-out show.
