By: Pac-12 Conference

The Pac-12 today announced it has selected standout performers from the 2025 football season who will be recognized as “Top Performers” in the league’s archives and historical records. Completing its second football season as a two-team conference during a unique two-year period of its 110-year history, the league worked collectively to determine a unique fashion for recognizing standout performers among its football student-athletes. Voting took place among Pac-12 staff and media who covered both teams to determine the individual recognitions in each of the following categories.
