This Page Consists of Weekly Rankings from My Own Formula for Ranking All 117 Teams in Division I Without Bias. Formula is still under observation for improvement.
| Basics of System: How Rank is Determined | |||
| Scores are determined using the same formula for each team. | |||
| Scores are based on the teams record and on the number of points scored and allowed scored. | |||
| The number of points scored and allowed scored are weighted by: | |||
| 1. Whether a team is playing at home or away | |||
| Teams are expected to perform better at home...so away teams are given a little bonus for scoring on the road and a little leniency for getting scored upon on the road | |||
| 2. Rank of teams scorings | |||
| Stronger teams are not rewarded for barely beating weaker teams...they must win by a lot to be rewarded. Weaker teams are always rewarded for scoring on stronger teams. | |||
| The rank of each team is updated weekly, and the data back tracks. | |||
| So if you were #1 at the beginning of the season and #30 at the end...teams who played you at the beginning of the season would see your rank as #30 not #1 and the data retabulated. | |||
| Each week the data is updated and the rank determined by obtaining a total root-mean-square value of the change in each team's rank of at most 0.02. | |||
