What changed this week

Rank and rating are separate measures. State ranking: up 8 spots to No. 70 (from No. 78). MFPI rating: increased 3.1 points to 64.9. Largest component changes since Week 8: mfpi strength of schedule +2.4 pts; opponent-adjusted performance +0.9 pts; points scored −0.7 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.
