Since I did this last year it was easy to update. Sorry for the sloppy formatting. Generally,measures in a simple manner a schools success in the playoffs by awarding points for playing in the games. 5 for first round, 10 for qtrs, 15 for semi, 20 for NC and 20 for winning. We debated the methodology the last time and it is up for debate again. Mainly for entertainment and discussion purposes. Also,the accuracy is questionable so if you see an error point it out.

I believe we decided that byes received points as if they played the game since they were good enough to have received the bye. Take a look and comment if you want. Number to the immediate right of the school is last year's historic ranking. Yes there are lots of ties and I did not list as such.
