News (Jan 16, 2026): For 2026, Big Ten standings will migrate to our application site which will allow for much faster updates and auto-calculation of tiebreakers per the current Big Ten Baseball Tournament Tie-Breaker Procedures. There is a slight change in the tiebreaker rules for 2026. As a preview, we have applied the 2026 tiebreaker rules to the 2025 standings. The new tiebreaker rules did not change any team order, but they did change the reason Rutgers was seeded below Nebraska and Penn State. Rutgers had lost a series to both Nebraska and Penn State. In the old rules head-to-head was ignored in a 3+ team tie if not every team had played each other in the group as was the case with Nebraska and Penn State. Going forward, if one team in the group has a better or worse record against all other teams in the group, that team will separate out as best or worst.
Starting March 6th, 2026 the “Standings” tab above will link to the new standings application.
Only Big Ten 3-game, weekend series count toward the standings. Several B1G teams play other single, non-conference games against other B1G teams, but those do not count. The top 12 teams by winning percentage will be invited to the B1G Tournament in Omaha, Nebraska. Ties below were broken using the 2025 Big Ten Baseball Tournament Tie-Breaker Procedures. The tiebreakers are for qualification and seeding in the B1G Tournament.
The regular season championship has no tiebreaker, so in 2025 Oregon and UCLA were regular season co-champions.
