National Signing Day 2018 is over, and the Georgia Bulldogs have signed the unanimous No. 1 recruiting class, breaking Alabama’s ridiculous streak.
On the other end of the spectrum, Arkansas finished with the worst-ranked class in the conference, finishing at No. 69 overall in Rivals.com’s team rankings. The Hogs’ class wasn’t even ranked by ESPN, which only lists the top 50 in the country. Chad Morris has his work cut out for him.
We’ve rounded up the recruiting rankings from each of the major services. With CBS Sports/247Sports acquisition of Scout.com, the site doesn’t produce its own rankings anymore. Please note the 247Sports rankings are not the composite rankings.

| Team | 247Sports | Rivals | ESPN |
| Alabama Crimson Tide | 8 | 7 | 6 |
| Arkansas Razorbacks | 51 | 69 | NR |
| Auburn Tigers | 14 | 12 | 12 |
| Florida Gators | 17 | 18 | 15 |
| Georgia Bulldogs | 1 | 1 | 1 |
