EA Sports identifies top Pac-12 prospects for 2026 video game edition
Beau Sparks, Jayden Virgin-Morgan, and Simeon Harris lead the rankings with an overall score of 89 in College Football 27.
EA Sports has published the player ratings for the 2026 season within its latest video game, College Football 27. The release provides a structured assessment of talent across the Pac-12 conference, establishing a hierarchy based on digital performance metrics rather than on-field results.
Three players have secured the highest overall rating of 89 in the conference. Texas State receiver Beau Sparks, Boise State edge Jayden Virgin-Morgan, and Fresno State cornerback Simeon Harris are tied for the top position. This triad represents the peak of the digital evaluation for the upcoming season.
Following the top tier, Boise State running back Dylan Riley holds the next highest rating at 88. San Diego State running back Lucky Sutton and Boise State quarterback Maddux Madsen are rated at 87, indicating a clear stratification of talent among the conference's offensive playmakers.
The mid-tier of the rankings features several players rated at 86. This group includes Texas State quarterback Brad Jackson and receiver Chris Dawn Jr., Boise State offensive lineman Roger Carreon, and Washington State receiver Tony Freeman. These ratings suggest a competitive depth chart across multiple positions and institutions.
Individual team leaders further delineate the conference landscape. Beyond the top-rated players, Colorado State linebacker Oumar Diomande and Utah State safety Brevin Hamblin are both rated at 84. Oregon State linebacker Aiden Sullivan holds a rating of 85, placing him between the 84-rated group and the 86-rated tier.
The data, originally reported by sports reporter Kevin Lytle for the Fort Collins Coloradoan, offers a snapshot of perceived player value for the 2026 cycle. The ratings serve as a benchmark for how EA Sports structures its simulation of the Pac-12 for the forthcoming video game release.
