I talked to a Wisconsin acquaintance regarding their 86 ranking on
rivals. He told me that Rivals insisted the ranking was correct
according to their complex algorithm. I have looked at that ranking
over and over again and their is no way mathematically to justify that
point total as compared to other teams unless they have a factor in
there like - Wisconsin -600 points.
It looked to me like rivals consistently ranked the Big 10 teams
lower. I wonder if it has anything to do with the Big 10 network and
rivals affiliation with Fox.
Anyway, that totally blew away what little credibility that rivals had
with me especially in regards to team rankings. I have always thought
that Scout was a little better but I have never been big into either
recruiting site.
