Talisman Red's Womens College Soccer Computer Ratings

On this page, I'll try to keep daily rankings, ratings, and scores of NCAA women's soccer teams. This will be the first year for this project, and there is still lots of work to be done. I'll do the best I can with the time that I have to keep sprucing up the place. The ratings shown here use the system developed by David Wilson, which I've calculated for college basketball for over 20 years.

Links to conference standings and a schedule for the next few days are on the left. (Or scroll down, if you're on a smaller screen.)

Scores are collected from the NCAA's public website, which is run by Turner Sports, and they often miss quite a few games. I will backfill them as I can from a more complete source. Shame on Turner.

Welcome to 2025! Season startup issues:

  • In September: Teams will jump around some on the 1st, 10th, and 20th, the days that I reduce the influence of last season's games on the ratings.
  • Since the Rothman rankings start every year from scratch, they won't be available until everyone has played an average of 6-7 games.

Here are the top 25 teams. The ratings were last updated Thu 09-Oct-2025.
