how to throw a high pass in ncaa 26

To throw a high pass in EA Sports College Football 26 (often called NCAA 26), you use the game’s “highball” modifier plus the receiver’s button.

Basic High Pass Controls

On Classic/Standard passing settings:

• PlayStation :
  • Hold L1 and press the receiver’s button (X / Circle / Square / Triangle).
• Xbox :
  • Hold LB and press the receiver’s button (A / B / X / Y).

This makes the QB put more arc on the ball so it goes over underneath defenders and gives taller receivers or TEs a better chance to go up and get it.

When to Use a High Pass

Use high passes in spots where you want to throw over coverage, not through it:

• Tall WR/TE on a jump ball or fade.
• Red zone routes like seams, posts, and back-shoulder throws.
• Versus linebackers sitting underneath your receiver (seam routes, deep in routes).
• One‑on‑one situations where your receiver has a size or spec‑catch advantage.

Example: Slot TE on a seam versus a LB – hold L1/LB and lead up with the left stick to drop it over the LB’s head.

Extra Control With Advanced Passing

If you’ve turned on the newer passing styles (Placement or Placement + Accuracy), you can refine your high passes even more:

• Keep holding L1/LB for the highball.
• Use the left stick to lead:
  • Up and slightly away from the defender for safer high balls.
• With Placement + Accuracy, timing the meter affects how sharp and accurate that high pass will be.
