Some of you have been asking when the BCS ratings will be published for this year. Well, they've finally been updated and posted on the site!
You may have noticed the BCS rating appearing on the "ratings" pages for a few weeks, but there hasn't been a page to show how the various computer ratings and polls factor into the score. You can now find the details for the ratings calculations on the ratings pages for each sport/classification.
I have also made some minor modifications to the calculation of the ratings for some sports. Tie games are now factored into the ratings. Ties are given credit as 1/2 win and 1/2 loss. If a team is 5-2-1, then their rating is calculated based on a W/L record of 5.5 - 2.5.
For those of you that follow volleyball, you will notice that there have been some changes made to the standings presentations. All W/L records now exclude ALL tournament games. A separate W/L/T record has been created to show a team's record in tournament matches. A team's "streak" is still calculated based on all matches. Also, all non-jamboree matches are now factored into the ratings calculations. This includes pool play matches at the tournaments that include both pool play and bracket play.
If you have any tournament results to pass on, you may input the results directly into the site or use the "Contact Us" link on the menu to the left.
