USC is 15 and Tulane is 25. This is garbage.

From the site: this isn't a poll
Football Power Index (FPI) college football rankings and computer prediction model are a measure of team strength that predicts a team’s future performance.
Rankings and scores predictions are based on 20,000 simulations of a team’s season, using a combination of analytics, including scores to date, quality of opponents, and a team’s schedule.
Not a conventional power ranking in the mode of the AP top 25 or the College Football Playoff rankings, the FPI instead slots teams on a projected per-game scoring margin, judging how teams would perform against an average opponent on a neutral field.

gives us something to talk about and perhaps has a touch of validity that increases most teams ire and affirms those who think they are surperior.

Common sense and intangibles ARE NOT any of the analytics.
