April 30 is a Saturday.
Duh.

Saw it a couple of days ago and... The data is off. e.g. https://masseyratings.com/clax2022/5492

Especially Hartford being ranked higher than about 12 other teams.

Especially when they cannot get the team’s record correct.

I'm not seeing anything wrong as of now ...

As for Hartford, they dropped the sport this year, so 0-0 is their correct record. Their rank is based on prior season performance. Yeah, they should be dropped from the list, but it wouldn't change any other team's evaluation.

It shows UNC losing to UVA and OSU and their last game was on 3/20 vs. High Point. That's not correct...

I saw the *women's* Massey Ratings a couple of days ago where UNC is out of whack and... Got my lines crossed with this discussion. Look at UNC (who should be #1) in this Massey Rating: https://masseyratings.com/claxw/ncaa-d1/ratings. Or don't. Either way, I was thinking of the Women's Massey Rating. Sorry. Oops...

Yeah, the UNC women's team seems to have games by some other school in there, must be some mixup in the automated data collection.

I will email Ken, he is usually responsive to these things.

EDIT: Massey has fixed it. North Carolina Wesleyan games were being attributed to North Carolina.

So far, 10 of the FanLax Forum Poll's top 25 have lost. This season is drunk.

Yes but 8 of those losses were to other FANLAX top 25s. Good to have the good teams playing each other.

Terry Foy tweeted about the RPI today...about it's ridiculousness::

https://twitter.com/TerenceFoy/status/1 ... 4490993668

Consider that Maryland's head-to-head win over Princeton benefits Princeton while penalizing Maryland. How? Maryland's undefeated record helps Princeton's RPI (50% based on your opponents' record) but Princeton's loss (and now second loss) hurts Maryland's RPI (50% based on your opponents' record).

Having trouble finding a link for this week -- what I tried took me to a 3/21 poll.
