Regional Rankings - Projected
These are my current guesses at Regional Rankings.
7 teams per region will be ranked.
The way the NCAA Regional Committees and the way the NCAA National Committee views, values, and relatively weights the primary and secondary criteria is (a) not dictated by the Pre-Championship Manual, and (b) not disclosed by the committee(s).
That said, by looking at the Regional Rankings and the Pool C selections, we can backwards infer the relative valuation.
I've tried to "fit" such relative weightings so that the results match the Regional Rankings and Pool C selections the best they can.
Year-to-year, of course, the committee(s) can alter how they relatively value and weight the criteria.
I'm also not analyzing (a) Common Opponents, (b) H2H, at this juncture.
These rankings are attempting to predict the FINAL Regional Rankings. Weeks 1, 2, and 3 will look very different.
The weakest part of this model is the Projected Winning %. So take all of this with a grain of salt.
** 1/5/24 -> Best vRRO win is now incorporated
