The Florida Gators had a bye during Week 8 of the 2023 college football campaign but as they say in the theater, the show must go on.

The FPI was developed by ESPN in 2013 to measure each team’s overall strength and predict results throughout the season. As the schedule progresses, the data used to determine a team’s FPI ranking will come from the games played while also predicting the outcomes for each future matchup.
