Strongest result

A 20–14 win over North Pontotoc High School on Sep 18 (home), an opponent currently No. 145 statewide. “Strongest” means the defeated MHSAA opponent with the best current MFPI rank, not its rank when the game was played.

What changed this week

Rank and rating are separate measures. State ranking: down 6 spots to No. 169 (from No. 163). MFPI rating: decreased 1.7 points to 30.8. Largest component changes since Week 8: mfpi strength of schedule −1.2 pts; media strength of schedule −0.4 pts; record −0.3 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.
