Spencer Fano: The Top Right Tackle in College Football?
As the 2025-26 college football season approaches, Utah’s Spencer Fano is emerging as a standout offensive tackle, backed by impressive statistics and anticipated accolades. Recent insights suggest that Fano, a 6-foot-6 talent from Spanish Fork, could hold the title of the highest-rated right tackle in the upcoming installment of EA Sports’ "College Football" video game series, with a predicted rating of 94. This score, if confirmed, would surpass his previous 90 rating from last year.
Fano’s prominence in the sport is underscored by his recognition from Pro Football Focus, which named him the top returning offensive lineman for the upcoming season and honored him with a spot on the preseason All-America team. His remarkable sophomore season saw him leading all FBS tackles with a staggering 93.0 grade, alongside a 93.6 run-blocking grade—making him the country’s top performer in that category. His 79.5 pass-blocking grade also positioned him in the top tier among Power Five tackles, further cementing his reputation as a formidable force on the offensive line.
On the opposite side of Utah’s offensive line, Caleb Lomu, also showing impressive stats, is projected to have a strong season ahead with an unofficial 90 overall rating. Last season, he allowed only two sacks and six quarterback hits across 425 snaps in pass protection, showcasing his reliability.
As fans eagerly await the game’s release on July 10, Fano’s virtual stats mirror the high expectations from analysts predicting him as a top-10 NFL draft pick. The growing buzz around him encapsulates Utah’s burgeoning talent in college football, positioning both players as key figures to watch this upcoming season.
