not to take credit away from any of the long island teams that have made it onto the rankings board, but those rankings are insane. i know how the ratings work but to see teams with impressive records rated so low shows some flaws in this system. seeing teams with 5-4 record in the top ten is just fool.
Well you did take it away with what you said. Why even say anything? Of coarse rankings has flaws which is why they are notIntelligent in the first place but the teams with those records are really good and if you look at who they lost to, I'm sure they are to really good teams on close games which is why record is not a great indicator of who the best teams really are. Congrats to them!
Get over yourself. When the 12th place team in the country has a record of 2-8-3, the 10th place team has a record of 7-5-1, and the 5th place team has a record of 5-4 criticisms are expected and frankly they are warranted. A losing record and a negative goal differential should never put you in the 90's or anywhere near the leaderboard regardless of whatever formula they're using. It's not a good look.
This. The system gave the LI teams way too much credit which bumped their SoS up a good amount. Never heard of tradition yet they are number 10?
The post about algorithm is accurate. The system didn’t have enough information to figure out what to do with the LI teams who only played themselves.
Look at NXT. Lost to M&D and Eagle Stix once and beat them once. Lost to Heros. Yet they are 4 and M&D and ES are 9 and 8? Coppermine who only lost to heros and M&D is 7??
Once Monsters, LITG and YJ travel south. Things will change. Team 91 is the only one who deserves to be up there above Coppermine, ES and M&D.
Biggest reason why fall rankings are kind of pointless.
