What changed this week

Rank and rating are separate measures. State ranking: up 5 spots to No. 119 (from No. 124). MFPI rating: increased 2.2 points to 46.9. Largest component changes since Week 8: points scored −1.0 pts; media strength of schedule +0.9 pts; mfpi strength of schedule +0.9 pts. Opponents' ratings are re-solved every week, so these can move without a new game.

Limitations

Ratings use only verified final scores through Oct 27, 2026, 11:00 AM CDT. Media rank and media strength of schedule (from MaxPreps) contribute 20%. MFPI does not consider injuries, rosters or weather, and it is not a prediction.
