However, they are very volatile at this point based on only a few early season results. They are also meant to project an outcome of a game if 2 teams played today. The rankings are only as good as the information I have in the database. If I don&#8217;t have all of a team&#8217;s scores the ranking may be slightly skewed for that team.
