¹Team Records: Only divisional games are included in the records here. The same holds true for the three ratings described below. ²Average Computer Rating: An equal weighting of two computer ratings, one based solely on goal differentials (with a 5-goal limit to greatly reduce any effects of "running up the score") and one based solely on wins and losses ³Ratings Percentage Index = 0.25 * team's record + 0.50 * opponent's record + 0.25 * opponent's-opponent's record ⁴Strength of Schedule = (2/3) * opponent's record + (1/3) * opponent's-opponent's record Notes Click the column headers to sort the table by that field (in descending order for ratings and alphabetically for teams). In the case of opponent's record in RPI and SOS, games involving the target team have been removed. These calculations are provided only for entertainment purposes. The SOS and ACR have no bearing on selection to the NCAA, while the NCAA's official RPI will be produced and published in October and November. Formulas are constant across schools, allowing comparisons to be valid.
