To throw a bullet pass in College Football 25, hold down the receiver button to fill the power meter until just before it turns yellow. You can hold for longer and throw a more powerful pass, but the chances of an error window increase.
Mastering the new revamped passing in College Football 25 is vital for success. Holding down for a bullet pass needs to be timed correctly, as a quick tap of a receiver button results in a lob pass, and a shorter hold of the button triggers a touch pass.
Bullet passes in College Football 25 are best used when you want to get the ball to a receiver as quickly as possible, so they should be saved for short to medium-range passes—and they’re handy for screen plays.
They are also beneficial when you are looking to save time on the clock after a two-minute warning, as they reduce the time of the plays and allow you to march down the field quickly.
