Hensley Rating System - Week #5 Selections

Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time in the three seasons that I have done the Hensley Rating System, I have decided to start doing the ratings for the regular season and not just the playoffs.

 

I must not take any credit for the numbers that are produced...however, all the credit goes to both the Louisville Courier-Journal's LitRatings and the Lexington Herald-Leader's CantrallRatings. All that I have done is to enter the figures from both papers into an Excel sheet, added them together and divided by two, sort them into order from highest to lowest, and post them.

 

I will be maintaining the HRS for the remainder of the season so please be sure to post your comments about them and to keep checking back each and every week for updated standings.

 

For a little refresher to those out there that have not had the chance to view my selections in the past, here is how things work:

 

Example

Team A is playing at Team B.

Team B has a HRS of 73.85.

Team A has a HRS of 83.75.

Subtract 73.85 from 83.75 to get 9.9.

Now since Team B had the lowest of the two HRS, I subtract 6 from the total for "home-field advantage".

Results according to HRS: Team A should defeat Team B by 3.9 points.

 

 

Now for my selections. I have had some free time the last few days, so I decided to make a list of every game that is being played this weekend in which BOTH teams are from Kentucky.

 

For those of you that are wondering, this is all for fun and not necessarily how I personally would pick the games. I know that my percentage of getting the scores correct and minimal, but this is something for me to do to keep involved with high school athletics in some way, so I want to share it with everyone else to see what they think of it.

 

Enjoy.

I like the Rockcastle by almost 11. It makes me feel good about them this week.

Male by 65 sounds about right! ... BE by 3 .. could be that good of a game. If BE loses more than likely it will be by 1 point.

Bowling Green - vs. Warren Central - BG by 19.3

 

I'll take it!

Does the HENSLEY Rating System take into account the 45 point spread running clock?

Looks like lot of work involved here, great job and thanks for posting statman:thumb:

Thanks for the 110 % effort , another fine example of how a great BGP member makes it # 1 .

Kentucky Country Day - vs. Caverna - KCD by 19.45

Kentucky Country Day 35 - Caverna 0

52 sounds good for Bellevue but I was thinking around 60
