Thread: College Roller Hockey Rankings

  1. #1

    Arrow College Roller Hockey Rankings

    New college roller hockey rankings update through 10/15/07. New rankings every Wednesday. Go to www.yousuckref.com and click on BS rankings. Do you agree with the rankings? Remember if your team isn't on the rankings that means you haven't played yet!

    Who came up with these rankings?

    These are the worst rankings anyone could have come up with. I'm guessing they are based purely on winning record.

    I don't think they are that bad. Where is your team on the rankings?

    They might not be terrible...but how are they calculated.

    Most people won't see that you only included teams who have played (so Lindenwood is not eligible for ranking in this system), so perhaps an explanation of how the numbers are attained is in order.

    Re: College Roller Hockey Rankings

    DGlass is correct, if your team hasn't played a game yet you aren't in the rankings yet.

    The formula used to calculate these rankings has several criteria, some of which include: wins, losses, goals for, goals against and strength of schedule. The formula is completely mathematical and isn't swayed by opinion, committee votes, or a team's previous record. However, in the beginning, teams that have played more games tend to have an inflated ranking. As the season progresses (and the amount of games played evens out) the rankings become even more accurate.

    Every Wednesday the rankings will be updated, check back to see how your team is progressing.

    There is no way James Madison should be ranked first or Florida State be ranked above any other Florida DI school. i bet the creator of these rankings has never seen any of these teams play. Strength of schedule should be the first criteria in the rankings. Then winning percentage, then goal differential. The rankings at http://ircnationalrankings.blogspot.com/ are much more accurate. I'm saying this because i didnt like my team's ranking ( you guys ranked us in the teens while the IRC blog didnt even have us ranked).

    So there is some confusion on my part Obtrice45. We have you ranked in the teens and the other rankings don't have you ranked at all? And your upset? Did you read my previous post? Maybe your team has an inflate ranking . Would you cared to tell everyone the team you cheer for from the end of the bench? I am just having some fun man. The new rankings should be out tomorrow (Wednesday). I can't tell you who is number one but I can tell you its probably not your team.

    Please include a strength of schedule when determining rankings. James Madison and V. Tech should not be ranked so high, if they travel south to play the big Fl schools they would probably get worked

    Re: College Roller Hockey Rankings

    Ok I understand people may be not happy (except for the folks from JMU) that JMU and VT are ranked high. We all have to appreciate that both of those teams have played double the amount of games as everyone else. Yes strength of schedule is a factor in the rankings. You will see as the season progresses that the top teams will come to the top. My formula is purely mathmatical and it does not use number of games play as a factor.

    Re: College Roller Hockey Rankings

    Your Rankings are a joke.....
    For example, How is James Madison ranked ahead of FIU in the B divison, when FIU played UM - A, FSU - A, and the top two teams from the SERCHL B last year in UCF and UF. James Madison played a weaker weekend in the Carolina's (or somewhere) while FIU was getting hammered by A teams and B teams that have beaten A teams.

    Considering you have never watched most of these teams play - especially this year- how is it you came up with the rankings?

    Did you factor in Strength of Schedule? The AP Polls, The Coaches Poll, The ESPN Pole, and the Stippers pole from Stir Crazy, or did you decide to spew these from the very bowels you are sitting on.

    I'm really interested to see your "brother at nasa's" secret super duper formula.

    Am I the only one who likes these new rankings? Though I do think coaches poll and ap poll should be factored in.

    I don't not like these polls...lol, my team is #2 in them...hahaha...

    The other national rankings are much more accurate, but as far as i know, not based on math

    Yep....they're based on one guy sitting in front of a computer, right?
