college basketball poll - week 4
Unfortunately, the NCAA statistics website isn’t consistent between all the various sports, and while I can get a nice Perl-ready .csv of all the Division I-A football scores this season, no such .csv exists for Division I men’s basketball. There’s a .pdf, but I didn’t really feel like dealing with that. I’m sure it’s possible, since Perl is amazing and everything, but whatever. So, instead, I’m getting my basketball scores from Massey Ratings.
Other than that, the formula is the same as my football poll, explained here. I don’t really have any commentary, as I haven’t quite left college football mode yet. So here it is:
1 - Duke (7-1) (53.02734375)
2 - Purdue (7-0) (52.19921875)
3 - Syracuse (8-0) (48.59375)
4 - Villanova (8-0) (47.26806640625)
5 - Connecticut (6-1) (45.6640625)
6 - William & Mary (6-2) (44.92529296875)
7 - Kansas St (7-1) (44.45458984375)
8 - Wisconsin (6-1) (43.796875)
9 - Kentucky (8-0) (43.5390625)
10 - Vanderbilt (6-1) (42.985107421875)
11 - Florida (8-0) (42.16796875)
12 - West Virginia (5-0) (42.1640625)
13 - North Carolina (7-2) (42.0546875)
14 - Missouri St (7-0) (41.4715576171875)
15 - Mississippi (7-1) (40.967529296875)
16 - Ohio St (7-1) (40.7557373046875)
17 - New Mexico (8-0) (39.6673278808594)
18 - Harvard (6-2) (39.54296875)
19 - Texas Tech (8-0) (39.326171875)
20 - Gonzaga (6-2) (38.8046875)
21 - Texas A&M (7-1) (38.63330078125)
22 - Washington (6-1) (38.61328125)
23 - Notre Dame (8-1) (38.50341796875)
24 - Clemson (7-2) (38.21875)
25 - Miami FL (8-1) (38.0859375)
I’m not going to bother with directed graphs since there’s like 300 Division I teams.
