Conference · 2025-26

Big 12

13 teams. Each team's starter at a weight is its best-ranked wrestler there; the starters are seeded by national rank and every seed holds. Points follow NCAA tournament scoring, placement plus advancement with 8 places scored and no bonus points, so this is a reading of the ratings, not a prediction.

Results for 2025-26 come from the schools' own box scores and from tournament brackets imported by hand. A dual whose page printed no box score, or an open that was not exported, is missing here. Bouts against non-Division I opponents are listed but not counted in records.The projection is the rank order with every seed holding; redshirts, injuries and a coach's lineup are invisible to it, and never-rated newcomers share a rank, so their seeds are a coin flip.How ScrapStat counts.
