I can't say I disagree with your statement. Hard to figure this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goal15 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I haven't gone through this with a fine tooth comb, but movement in rankings aren't based on just what one team has done. It is also based on what other teams do. So maybe other teams moving up or down affected Ballard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew4489 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) the only part about the updated rankings that makes since is st x moving to number one. how does cov cath stay where they were if they lost to team way further down then them?

gameplayedright Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I'm not defending the Maher system and I don't know if all of Saturday 9/10 games were factored into this week's rankings. I agree with Goal15 you clearly need to take all of the week's games into the equation. As an example CCH beat #27 McNick 5-2 (# 27 in Cincy at that time) @ McNick and tied #4 Trinity @ Trinity 1-1. Ballard lost to #3 St X (#3 at that time) 6-2 @ home. Point is you can't just factor in CCH's lost @ Ballard. Daviess CO, Oldham Co, Louisville Collegiate, and Mercer Co all went 3-0-0 last week. Woodford Co went 1-2-0. Clearly if you want to hold or move up you need to have good results Vs good teams, and you better not stub your toe at home.

drew4489 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I completely agree with what you are saying gameplayedright and im just using the cov cath/ballard as an example. and I don't believe ballard should be above cov cath. just the fact they played each other and neither team changed positions.

Goal15 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Probably more of a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
