FPI = Football Power Index-
"The Football Power Index (FPI) is a measure of team strength that is meant to be the best predictor of a team's performance going forward for the rest of the season. FPI represents how many points above or below average a team is. Projected results are based on 10,000 simulations of the rest of the season using FPI, results to date, and the remaining schedule. Ratings and projections update daily."

Looking at the top half of all the teams (out of Top 65) and a tough conference schedule for us! Sadly, a strong divide between P5 and G5 but one could make a case that we should be considered separate from the other G5s. Anyways, curious what others think!
Breakout by conference:
1) SEC - 13 teams - Avg FPI - 10
2) Big 10 - 11 - Avg FPI - 10
3) ACC - 11 - Avg FPI - 11
4) Pac-12 - 11 - Avg FPI - 9
5) Big-12 - 9 - Avg FPI - 11
6) American - 6 - Avg FPI - 4
7) MWC - 2 - Avg FPI - 2
8.) MAC - 1 - Avg FPI - (0)
9) Ind - 1 - Avg FPI - 17
American Breakdown:
1) #30 - UCF - 9.1 (FPI)
2) #44 - Hou - 4.8 (FPI)
3) #47 - USF - 3.6 (FPI)
4) #51 - Mem - 2.5 (FPI)
5) #57 - SMU - 1.1 (FPI)
6) #62 - Navy - .3 (FPI)
FWIW, TCU FPI # is 18.9 sitting at rank #8. Imagine if we had better execution, no hail mary, our stock would have gone up immensely especially on the road, but oh well.
