How these rankings are built

Teams are grouped into tiers by playoff probability (S: 95%+, A: 80–95%, B: 50–80%, C: 20–50%, D: 5–20%, F: under 5%), then ordered within each tier by a power rating that blends winning percentage, playoff probability, and scoring differential. Every input is recomputed each morning from the latest simulation run — no human voting is involved.

Rankings recomputed daily at 9 AM ET from 100,000 Monte Carlo simulations · data through 2026-10-30.
