Explanation

The team ranking order shown here is a robust measure of the consensus of all rankings in the list. The fraction of rankings that list each team above each other team is calculated, creating a score of between zero and one for every pair of teams. The list is ordered so that every team has more than a 0.500 score against every team ranked below it when possible. Occasionally a three-way split will arise, in which case the list is ordered so that the two strongest majorities are followed and the weakest is ignored. The numbers to the right of a team show its scores compared with nearby teams, with the "|" symbol depicting the position of the team. The comparison scores are always shown for adjacent teams include as many teams as necessary to show all scores between 0.3 and 0.7. For example, the following line: 5 Texas 9-2 0.386 | 0.599 0.669 is interpreted as follows. Texas is ranked 5th. 38.6% of the rankings listed Texas ahead of the 4th-place team, and under 30% of the rankings listed Texas ahead of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-pace teams. 59.9% of rankings listed Texas ahead of the 6th-place team, 66.9% listed them ahead of the 7th-place team, and over 70% listed them ahead of the remaining teams. The rankings are listed in order of their average agreement with the comparison scores. For each pair of teams, the ranking is given a score of one if it agrees with the majority, or a score of (1/x-1), where x is the comparison score of the consensus winner, if it is in the minority.
