Texas A&M fans have grown pretty sick of being underrated by the ESPN FPI rankings, a notoriously opaque power rating system put out by ESPN that often has questionable rankings late into the season. One thing in particular, though, was really questionable for nearly the entire season when it comes to these ratings.
After starting the season as a runaway no. 1 in the ratings (4 points higher than current no. 1 Ohio State, and 3 points higher than the no. 2 team), the Texas Longhorns have fallen much more slowly in these ratings than they have in other, comparable power rating profiles.
