The Conference USA Power Rankings are never a prediction for how things will end up, but rather a snapshot of how teams look at the moment. At the moment, C-USA appears to be trending slightly up. Last week C-USA went 4-0 against other G5 teams, 1-1 against FBS Independents, and didn’t lost to an FCS team.
Even with some good vibes, C-USA is still missing a win over a P5 team, and with the MAC’s Eastern Michigan defeating the Big Ten’s Illinois, C-USA is now the only FBS conference to not have a win over a P5 conference.
