What changed this week

Rank and rating are separate measures. State ranking: down 14 spots to No. 144 (from No. 130). MFPI rating: decreased 3.4 points to 39.4. Largest component changes since Week 8: opponent-adjusted performance −1.9 pts; points scored −0.6 pts; media rank −0.6 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. 2 listing(s) for this team were still awaiting a verified score. 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.
