This poll is based on the average of your W/L %, your divisional W/L %, you conference W/L % and the combined average of your division’s Composite RPI %, your cponference's CRPI % and your W/L%. This poll gives you credit for doing well in your division and conference, but weighs that against your overall record and the strength of your division/conference compared to other divisions and the other conference. The team with the highest final score gets 1.000 and the rest of the teams divide their final score by the final score of the team with the highest score to determine their component %.

     

    The great thing about this poll is that it encourages divisional rivalries and rewards teams for being the best in their division. It also provides a little more insight into who might be more likely to make the playoffs from each conference.

     

    Because the XFL has bye weeks, divisional games played versus possible divisional games (i.e. 8) is factored into the formula. For example, if you have a 1.00 divisional W/L % and only played one divisional opponent so far, you will only get credited a value of 0.125 % (1.000 % X 1/8 = 0.125%). The divisional games played versus possible divisional games also affects the overall score. Using the example, instead of taking the sum of your W/L %, your adjusted divisional W/L %, and your division's strength %, and dividing it by 3, you would divide it by 2.125. This ensures your divisional wins and losses affect your overall score gradually over the season based on how many divisional games you played.
