Match Comments

Part of me wants to focus elsewhere on more winnable matches. Part refuses to back down against tall odds, on general principle. Tough lineup choices

Kevin (New Orleans) Jul 07 - 4:34 PM

Surely the Rats will go for the prestigeous NonConf trophy

Eduard (Starkville) Jul 08 - 3:26 PM

Starkville: Proud winner of the NonConf Trophy in S9!

Eduard (Starkville) Jul 08 - 3:27 PM

we think the hounds are in fear of their purple brethren?

Vick (San Jose) Jul 13 - 9:02 AM

and as we found out last round the swamp rats are feisty little buggers when they smell blood

Vick (San Jose) Jul 13 - 9:04 AM

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.
