The Goblin SETXsports Week 8 Mathematical Rankings

[Goblin]

Some people are REALLY not gonna like this but it's how the numbers sort themselves out. All I did was use an algorithm using scores of games between teams that are listed in the official SETXsports 11-man UIL teams schedule section of the board 2A through 6A.  This is how it came out as of today. Teams that are on the outskirts of our geographic area of course are not gonna have as many games included as those that are centered essentially on Beaumont.  North Shore has only played 2 teams that are included in the 74 (which happen to be Channelview and West Brook and they beat both of them) so by no means take any of this to heart or get mortally offended. 

 

1.  Galena Park North Shore 70.03 2.   Channelview 55.72 3.    West Brook 54.34 4.  WOS 52.18 5. Crosby 51.64 6. New Caney 47.81 7. CE King 45.60 8. LaPorte 43.22 9. PNG 42.30 10. Dayton 42.22 11. Humble 42.08 12. Deer Park 40.49 13. Nederland 35.69 14.   Kingwood Park 31.96 15. Silsbee 31.19 16. Barbers Hill 30.60 17.   Beaumont Central 29.99 18. PA Memorial 29.93 19. Vidor 29.11 20.   Beaumont Ozen 26.40 21. Crockett 25.57 22. Lumberton 25.37 23. Diboll 25.36 24. LCM 21.00 25.   Baytown Sterling 20.94 26. Kirbyville 19.70 27.   East Chambers 18.85 28. Goose Creek 18.64 29. Madisonville 17.46 30. Bridge City 16.45 31. Newton 14.10 32. Galena Park 12.90 33. Hamshire-Fannett 10.90 34. Porter 10.77 35. Shepherd 10.36 36. Huffman 10.35 37. Orangefield 10.14 38. Jasper 9.68 39. Baytown Lee 7.00 40. Coldspring 3.86 41. Liberty 2.82 42. Buna -2.72 43. Hardin-Jefferson -3.73 44.   Corrigan-Camden -4.87 45. Shelbyville -6.28 46. Lovelady -7.50 47. Iola -9.15 48. Cleveland -9.98 49. Garrison -14.58 50. Kountze -15.71 51.   Anderson-Shiro -18.67 52. Woodville -21.63 53. Tarkington -21.97 54. Anahuac -25.91 55. Splendora -25.93 56. Beckville -26.56 57.   San Augustine .-28.99 58. Hardin -30.58 59. Deweyville -31.12 60. Normangee -32.81 61. Centerville -33.19 62. West Sabine -33.61 63. Huntington -33.89 64. Warren -36.10 65. Groveton -36.37 66. Evadale -38.63 67. Joaquin -41.43 68. Hemphill -46.47 69. Cushing -47.56 70. West Hardin -54.18 71. Burkeville -68.73

72. Colmesneil -72. 81

73. Sabine Pass -82.30

74. Hull-Daisetta -83.72

 

The way it works is as follows:

 

Take your team: Let's say WOS. They have a score of 52.18

WOS beat LCM by 13 (LCM has 21.00)      21.00 + 13 = 34.00

WOS beat PNG by 14 (PNG has 42.30)     42.30 + 14 = 56.30

WOS beat Jasper by 53 (Jasper has 9.68)     9.68 + 53 = 62.68

WOS beat Silsbee by 21 (Silsbee has 31.19)  31.19 + 21 = 52.19

WOS beat Newton by 42 (Newton has 14.10)  14.10 + 42 = 56.10

WOS beat Liberty by 49 (Liberty has 2.82)  2.82 + 49 = 51.82

 

The average of 34.00, 56.30, 62.68, 52.19, 52.10, and 51.82 equals 52.18 ---- which is the power ranking number that we started with.

 

If you do the exact same thing with all 74 teams in head-to-head games amongst the other 74 teams you would find the same exact thing.   Yes, I know it doesn't take into account games outside of the SETX area (the larger the number of teams included the more exponential and time-consuming the calculations become and I've done this before statewide but just don't have the time to do it right now) and yes I know it doesn't take into account games that were huge blowouts (Jasper is low because of that 53-0 loss) but it is mathematically sound.  It's also convenient in seeing which games were your worst or best.  WOS consistently got a score of 52-56ish in all their games except the LCM game and the Jasper game which were arguably our worst and best performances against local teams so far.

Cool enjoyed it thanks

Guess I don't get it. You have GCM ranked below LCM, but GCM beat them in head to dead play. Looks like the BCS logic to me. Cool to look at though.
