I went down a rabbit hole this morning regarding Notre Dame. First off, I'm not the biggest fan of FPI but I think it can be a useful metric. If you look at some of Notre Dame's wins, here how they rank in the FPI: 1. USC - 11 2. Pitt - 38 3. Arkansas - 41 Care to guess where Florida ranks? 36 That's right, terrible 4-8 Florida is actually a better team, according to FPI, than Notre Dame's second best win. But let's look at some on field results between Pitt and Florida to see if that makes sense, here are 2 common opponents: Miami and FSU Florida: 40 FSU: 21 Pitt: 34 FSU: 31 Florida: 7 Miami: 26 Pitt: 7 Miami: 38 I'm not saying that Florida beats Pitt but looking at FPI and on field results is very telling....
