Match Comments

Are the Jacks our new Big 8 overlords?

Roger (Pekin) Mar 05 - 8:39 AM

beware the humble artichoke

Vick (San Jose) Mar 07 - 9:04 AM

No. The schedule isn’t in our favor… even though it will probably still be another great season. The Artichokes may be losing momentum in the conference, but they’re formidable in the cup!

Notes
This shows a preview based on your Top 7 players. Your top 7 players (and your opponents) may not be playing. The effective overall and effective grades INCLUDE BOTH FIT and HOME COURT additions.

This is a basic prediction and does not mean you will win if you get the prediction checkmark. In fact, you will likely lose. This is a simple totaling of the checkmarks where we double the count for OH and MB since you have two of those on the floor versus the other positions.

We are interested in adding to this concept though like using a Top-14 where we double the weight for the starter but add the numbers for the backups as they will play in a session too. Thoughts or ideas?

ELO
For ELO, 145 Rating points are added to the home team's ELO rating to determine the chance of winning.
