Not really impressed with it.

It's exactly like D2 - their SoS calculation is deeply, deeply flawed so when I say that it is flawed, what I mean is that it is total crap.

This makes the Coach's poll look like a shining beacon of truth and that's saying something.

This rating system is horrendous. A complete joke and the NCAA should ashamed of themselves for even posting the results.

This thing needs to go away and never be seen or heard of again.

That poll means nothing. The playoffs have begun, let it all pan out on the field. Either we finish #1 or we don't. In the end, we have a playoff system, and thank god we don't let computer rankings like the BCS decide who plays for a championship.

IF Eastern Illinois has the highest SRS, why didn't they get the #1 seed?

It meant something...the selection committee used it per the MVFC comish.

I meant now. No reason to argue about who ranks where now. It all gets played out on the field as it should.

Marist undoubtedly regretting that they agreed to chance the Pioneer's tie-breaking procedures. xbawlingx

They got Davidson right. I'm not sure how you rank Columbia higher than teams that won actual games.

They clearly didn't study it hard enough then because they chose to seed Maine 5th, Towson 7th and Montana 8th over CCU and Fordham who were ahead of all of them

I think you meant "agreed to change..." Because 10 days ago, the tiebreaker was the SRS alone. The change brought in a multitude of other rating systems.

And the SRS rates Marist ahead of Butler.

Fargo Bison, do you have a link to support this? Viverito, of course, is also the Pioneer commissioner. Interesting that the SRS could be used for selection everywhere but the PFL.
