On a national level, the Ohio State Buckeyes had the top class in the conference, with 26 total commitments, including three five-star commitments. Nebraska football finished sixth in the Big Ten recruiting rankings, looking to build toward a stellar 2025 season.

More than 60 teams signed at least one blue-chip prospect in the 2025 recruiting class with 21 teams that surpassed double-digit blue-chip signees. All but three of those teams with at least 10 blue-chip signees this cycle are members of the Big Ten or SEC — a clear sign of the growing gap between the so-called 'Power 2' and the rest of the field.
