Updated Top 25 Overall

The college season is almost at the one-month mark, and we’ve already seen a ton of changes as players have risen to the challenge and others have fallen off or suffered injuries that caused their stock to fall. And also—sometimes players just don’t live up to expectations or take the next step in their development. And at quarterback, we’re seeing a lot of that!

These rankings are based on previous seasons and current play—they’re not a prediction of where things will be in April 2026.
