These are some additional numbers the committee may consider (and has based
the awarding of bids on in the past, when teams were rated closely). There
is no way to know how they will look at these numbers or which ones they
may consider to be more important; admittedly, in the past, it has changed
from year-to-year. This is just some more information for you to look at.
Don't forget that DivI winning percentage is a key consideration, and
that is shown below as well along with the latest RPICH.
Teams are compared in pairs. Five pairs are looked at: PC-NH (since likely
one of these two will go), SLU-Clarkson, SLU-Harvard, Harvard-Clarkson (since
likely two of these three will go), and NMU-WMU (one of these two).
Clear advantages seem to go to both SLU and Clarkson over Harvard, and
NMU over WMU. SLU seems to have a slight advantage over Clarkson as does
PC over UNH. This is just my opinion, both due to strong head-to-head differ-
ences. The below also points out an important factor as far as strength of
schedule goes: you have to win those tough games, too. SLU & Clarkson both
have much better win pct's against the Top 15 than Harvard, likewise NMU than
WMU and PC than UNH.
CommOpp = record versus all common opponents, minus head-to-head games (for
example, PC & UNH could have both played BU but they can't have *both* played
PC or UNH)
Head-to-Head = includes all league/nonleague/playoff games
Vs Top 15 = record versus all teams considered by most people to be the 15
teams most under consideration (i.e. last NC$$ poll), including head-to-head
RPICH = rating posted by Erik as of 3/11/92
