Billy Napier and his Florida football program we delivered a serious blow last Saturday against the visiting Arkansas Razorbacks, who outlasted the Gators, 39-36, in overtime. It was the first SEC win of the season for the visitors and the first-ever win in the Swamp for the Hogs.
Following the game, ESPN updated its Football Power Index along with other related data for the college football landscape, including the Orange and Blue. As one might expect, the program’s numbers saw some changes after what was seen in Gainesville last Saturday.
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.
Take a look below at ESPN’s FPI numbers and other data for Florida following its Week 10 overtime loss to the Razorbacks.
