Schedule strength
MFPI strength-of-schedule percentile 98.7 (100 = the strongest completed schedule statewide). Classification path: mostly same class — 2 games against higher classes, 3 in Class 5A, 2 against lower classes, and 1 against non-MHSAA or out-of-state opponents (rated by results, not by class).
What changed this week
Rank and rating are separate measures. State ranking: up 11 spots to No. 54 (from No. 65). MFPI rating: increased 4.4 points to 70.6. Largest component changes since Week 8: opponent-adjusted performance +2.5 pts; recent form +0.7 pts; points allowed +0.5 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.
