Umm, this is a joke. How do they figure this? BYU unranked but SMU is at 18

And Kansas State at #18?

FPI is so bad.

Whatever algorithms make up FPI needs to be retired

On average, FPI is very good. We seem to break the model.

That is good. Teams who can win without blue blood pedigree have to innovate.

Actually it isn't good.

Ok I disagree

If it’s still using last season at week 9, it sucks as a model.

Not if last season's results are still predictive

It includes data/takes into account the previous 4 years, prioritizing ast year.

FPI was built by BYU statistics alum Paul Sabin. It’s an algorithm, not a human.

FPI is a massive joke. I don't know why anyone pays attention to FPI.

It's factually not that. See my post above. I don't get the hate.
bythenumbers

It's more than just BYU. There's a number of team rankings that make zero sense.
slatecoug

Their rankings directly tie to the win probability predictions which are good.

USC is #15 in FPI. How is that a good metric?

Pointing out a few places it's wrong doesn't convince me of anything

I'm not trying to convince you of anything.

To be clear, I did not create FPI

Yep, almost all ESPN experts have BYU as CFP 4 seed. Such disrespect.
