The touch pass is one of three passing mechanics in College Football 26, being arguably the most accurate pass in the game. It's the most effective on mid-range plays, but can also be great for deep throws.

This type of pass has a higher arc than the bullet pass but slightly lower than the lob pass. Because of that, it's very hard for defenders to intercept, while being the easiest one for receivers to catch.

If you want to dominate in College Football 26, you need to have the touch pass in your arsenal.

You need to hold down the receiver button for slightly over half a second to throw a touch pass in College Football 26. Ideally, you want to release the button when the receiver icon is blue.

It might be hard at first to find the sweet spot, as holding the button for too long will make your quarterback perform a bullet pass, which is harder for receivers to catch and hold on to.

As mentioned previously, the touch pass is the perfect choice for mid-range plays, as it's accurate, doesn't hang in the air for too long, but its high arc makes it hard for defenders to intercept.

Receivers will have an easier time catching the ball, holding onto it, and gaining extra yards after catching it. It's great for 2nd or 3rd down situations where you are 6 or 7 yards from the 1st down.

However, even in situations where you need 10 or more yards to get the 1st down, the touch pass can be the best option. If your receiver is alone, the touch pass will give him the best chance to receive the ball and secure the necessary yards after catch to secure the 1st down.

As with everything in College Football 26, practice is the most important thing. Heading into the practice mode and throwing a plethora of touch passes will help you master this crucial passing technique.

One other thing that can help you master the touch pass and plenty of other mechanics is learning the ins and outs of the College Football 26 controls.
