Say what you will about football and analytics in football, but one thing is for certain, if there is a place for analytics in the game from the fan’s perspective, it certainly is about conversation pieces.
I am a firm believer in the use of analytics in football, both as a team and player while also as a conversation starter for the media and fans alike. And ESPN’s Football Power Index is absolutely a conversation starter and a great way to look ahead to the coming games for your UCLA Bruins.
ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI) generates an index for every team in major college football, or the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS).
