    Got Soccer Rankings Question

    Can someone explain to me how the gotsoccer.com rankings work? I think I must be missing something. How can the champion of a tournament get less points then the finalist?

    You would have to look at the detail of the points breakdown. Gotsoccer gives bonus points for things like beating a team that is ranked 500 or more spots ahead of you. I suppose it's possible that a team could have a couple huge upsets and get lots of bonus points but then lose in the final and still accumulate more points. I would think that would be pretty rare though.

      I've seen in quite a few times in tournaments and with league results. Just goes to show you how messed up the ranking system is.

        AGREED...but it is a system that you better start paying attention to....most all College Showcase Tourneys and tourneys like Surf Cup are starting to base their acceptance on GOT Soccer pts. Five years from now you'll understand

            In the Fall we won the league and got fewer points than the teams that finished 2-4

              I suspect that you will see an overhaul of their ranking systems as they give 0 points for ECNL events thereby ranking non ECNL teams much higher than ECNL teams. While it may be accurate it may also be missing a growing number of the highest level teams.

                why are you concerned with everyone else? If you personally are concerned than jump on board......it's better to be ahead of the curve.
