Not really sure how we slipped into #3 behind Iowa. I love Andegre's service, but these seems a bit strange if his model is a true statistical analysis.

 

[skylinepoke]

Andegre, you do know that we beat Iowa last week?

 

[andegre_rivals]

If you check the ranking history, you'll see that OSU was 3rd last week as well.

Since it's based purely on individual rankings and the prediction engine, you can see why you are 3rd by checking the dual rankings breakdown for OSU:

So it doesn't take into account the head-to-head win from last weekend? Even though the prediction shows a loss?

Correct, it does NOT consider previous matchups; only predictions based on the 10 head-to-head matches (previous head-to-head matchups of two WRESTLERS will be more heavily weighted in the future, but I don't want to modify the algorithm mid-season).

You are a big help when the average fan wants to know who is wrestling for the other team and how they did against common opponents and I appreciate your effort. I tend to disagree with Mr. Algorithm some of the time however.

 

[Wheeling Cowboy]

no worry. we finish better than many think we will

 

[OSUMatFan]

I should not look a gift horse in the mouth. This is a great service and I use it often and do not pay what it is worth.
