So, how do you Earn a Starting Spot Road to Glory College Football 26? Well, there are a few different ways. We will outline all of them below.

1. Get One Guaranteed Out of High School

This may seem obvious but there are a few ways that this can happen. The easiest is being a top-tier prospect. Even at some great schools, you will get a starting job right out of the gate. The second way is being a top-tier prospect and going to a middle or lower-tier school. Lastly, you can pick the worst of the worst schools and basically, no matter what, you will start unless you pick the only position that bad school is decent at.

2. Taking Advantage of an Injury or Bad Play
