CFPi+iCFPi+College Football Power Index Plus — the model’s topline team-strength rating, expressed as expected neutral-field point differential versus an average FBS team. Higher is better.▼
Off CFPi+iOff CFPi+Offensive unit rating used in the CFPi+ team profile and scoring framework. Higher indicates a stronger projected offense.▼
Def CFPi+iDef CFPi+Defensive unit burden paired with Off CFPi+, expressed as expected points allowed against an average FBS offense. LOWER IS BETTER, and rank #1 is the best defense.▼
CFPC+iCFPC+National Composite — the model’s normalized composite signal from the scheduled provider ratings. It is one component of CFPi+, not the final rating. The blend weights are not published.▼
Off CFPC+iOff CFPC+Offensive side of the National Composite. V2026.2 publishes one composite number and no unit split, so the site centres the split on the SP+ offense/defense pair and separates the sides by overall CFPC+ — Off minus Def equals CFPC+ exactly. A presentation split, not a separate metric; it is replaced when canonical unit composites publish.▼
Def CFPC+iDef CFPC+Defensive side of the National Composite, built from the same SP+ centre and overall CFPC+ split. Lower defensive burden is better, and rank #1 is the best defense.▼
EfficiencyiEfficiencyThe EPi+ efficiency signal as it enters CFPi+. This is the normalized component value, not the EPi+ rating itself — that is shown on the EPi+ tab. Higher is better.▼
TPi+iTPi+Talent Index Plus — the program’s roster/talent and continuity profile as it enters CFPi+. Higher is better.▼
CoachingiCoachingThe coaching signal, a recency-weighted composite of the head coach’s track record. It is a separate CFPi+ component and is not mathematically inside TPi+.▼

CFPi+ Power Rankings are designed to be predictive, forward-looking, data-based indexes for analyzing potential outcomes of college football games and do not indicate how “deserving” a particular team is. These are not official CFP rankings. The index represents the model’s expected point differential above or below the average FBS team on a neutral field.
