Madden Ultimate Team Chemistry

Chemistry plays a big part of Madden Ultimate Team. The higher the chemistry value is the better your team plays because your players will receive a boost to their attributes per position.

Chemistry increases when you have two players in the starting lineup that played for the same NFL team or college. The chemistry increase for playing on the same NFL team is larger than the increase for playing for the same college.

Chemistry also increases if you add a coach, uniform, playbook or stadium from that same team.

You can monitor your chemistry value while you are making changes to your depth chart. Only starting players will affect how the value changes so it's recommended that you make changes to your starting lineup to see if the chemistry value might go up. You might have a gold player card starting at RG, for example, but the chemistry may go up if a silver player card plays so it may be more beneficial to start the silver card instead.

As mentioned earlier, players who play for the same team affect chemistry more than players who played for the same college. Even though this is the case I thought it would be interesting to see which colleges cranked out the most Madden NFL players. Please see below. I also added a list of some players from each college:
