Every year, there are at least a few true freshmen who make an immediate impact in college football. The 2021 season won’t be any different, with a plethora of talented players coming into the B1G.

Recently, 247Sports took a look at the 100 true freshmen across college football who could step into a big role in their first season on campus. Plenty of those names will be playing in the B1G this fall.

A lot of Ohio State newcomers made the list, as the Buckeyes welcome in another highly-ranked recruiting class. But other programs will likely have at least a freshman or two step up in a big way during the 2021 season.
