ESPN FPI Projects Miami, Florida, Iowa, USC, Purdue 2025 College Football Outlook
ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI) projections for the 2025 college football season reveal varied outlooks for several prominent programs. The Miami Hurricanes are ranked No. 9 nationally with an optimistic 9.7-win projection and a 46.3% chance to make the College Football Playoff, bolstered by new quarterback Carson Beck despite some skepticism. Florida Gators come in at No. 18 nationally and 11th in the SEC, projected for about 6.4 wins with notable offensive improvements, though they face a challenging schedule with several higher-ranked opponents. Iowa is ranked No. 39 overall and 10th in the Big Ten with a six-win projection, but some analysts argue that the team is undervalued given its traditionally strong defense and the potential impact of new quarterback Mark Gronowski. The USC Trojans, ranked No. 19 nationally and fifth in the Big Ten, are projected for 8.3 wins and have a modest 21% chance to reach the College Football Playoff under coach Lincoln Riley. Purdue faces a bleak outlook as the lowest-ranked Power Four team, with a projected 3.2 wins and only a 6.3% chance to become bowl-eligible, amid a major roster overhaul and coaching change.
