Florida International: 2026 Week 11 recap

Florida International sits at 3–5 after a 49–10 road loss to Liberty in Week 9, holding a GIE rating of −7.9 and ranked 100th overall. The Panthers' offensive struggles are stark: a red-zone TD rate of just 16% and third-down conversion rate of 33% reveal an attack that can't finish drives or sustain momentum. With an expected win total around 5.2, FIU has playoff probability rounding to zero and faces an increasingly uphill path in Conference USA. Next up is a home matchup against Missouri State, a chance to reset before closing out a season that's underperformed early projections.
