GREAT WORK!

Miami, Las Vegas, Cleveland....they all deserve the top 3 - great teams. We hope we can do our best to make our case for #1.

For the power rankings?

The number to the right of the team's name/record.

I meant for standings. I was trying to figure out how the Nudists were ahead of us even though we beat them. I found out that in a tie between more than 2 teams total points scored is the tie breaker.

USA BBB League 6 | Power Rankings, Week 11
1] Las Vegas Flyin' Elvis (10-1), 5.88
2] Miami Brawlers (10-1), 5.84
3] Cleveland Gladiators (10-1), 5.26
4] Portland Aftershocks (9-2), 5.08
5] Seattle Fish n Chips (9-2), 4.39
6] Atlanta Dirtybirds (10-1), 3.86
7] Sacramento South Side Psychos (9-2), 3.56
8] Chocolate City Cha Chings (9-2), 2.69
9] Dallas Longhorns (8-3), 2.52
10] Louisiana Ragin Cajuns (8-3), 2.37

We should at least be 4th since we have beat them both and 10-1 right now we dont run up the score we win games Its just crazy for us to be listed 6th. It doesnt make sense if someone is a passing team and barely throws the ball but wins they wont be high because their running stats are low or if someone runs way more than pass their pass rankings wont be as high. Your system just doesnt show the REAL power ranking.

yes, but you beat us both very early in the season and by a combined 3 points.

Not trying to take anything away from you, you have a great team that deserves your top spot in the conference. But, have a look at the team leaders in both passing and rushing, offense and defense. Defense is the real difference. Thats why Portland is ranked ahead of me even tho I beat them 27-10. If you keep blanking teams like today you should start to climb.

exactly what im saying leading in passing or rushing doesnt make you a better team in ranking. Maybe teams lean to do one more than the other that hurts their rating on that other stat. That doesnt decide the better team or the most in the power rank. Thats why the NFL or NCAA doesnt do it like that if that was true Hawaii would have been number one with the way they pass. But you see what Georgia did to them.

Look at this Portland and Seattle are 2nd and 3rd in rushing but didnt run that well against us seattle ran a little better but like you said we played them at the beginning of the season. Seattle has the 2nd best passing and did a good job against us but it wasnt enough for the win. We play to win not for stats. Whatever is best for us to win is what we do. We have proven ourselves to the leagues best we should be higher in the rankings.

Cleveland isn't a rushing or passing team. We are balanced. But our defense is what keeps us above you I believe.

Probably I was saying we should at least be around 3rd or 4th

Team chemistry is realling holding us back but I feel like we can hang with any team right now. We will have a couple good tests in a few games and know exactly where we stack up.

Atlanta if all you care about is winning, then why are you so concerned about this ranking system.. you know how it works, you know what he uses, it hasnt changed sence week 1... So dont let it bother you so much man.. you have a great team.. Sully has told you ever week how he gets the rankings.. He goes off stats, and your team just doesnt have great stats, so it drops you down, you are still 10-1 man, i am sure there is alot of guys that will trade you there top spot on sullys power rankings to be 10-1. If it went off just rankings, and Strength of schedule, you would probably be alot higher, but it doesnt..
