Talisman Red's College Hockey Computer Ratings

Men's Division I

Each column below is sortable; just click the header. The overall Rating is a combination of two elements:

  • A score-based calculation: if you would like to predict the score of any hypothetical matchup, use the Points column. Just subtract. Make sure to adjust for home field, which is probably about 0.5 runs.
  • And, a component that considers strength of schedule and how recently games were played (giving more weight to more recent results). This shows up in the "BCS" column -- it is a lot like the "politically-correct" computer systems that were not allowed to consider margin of victory when the Bowl Championship Series was around.
