Gap = poll rank − RallyIQ rank. Green: RallyIQ rates them higher than the coaches do. Red: the poll is higher on them than their rally results so far.
Strength of Record
A résumé ranking, not a power rating: the chance an average RallyIQ top-25 team would have won at least as many matches against the same schedule, home and away as played. A lower chance means a harder record to match. Wins above top-25 (WAT) is actual wins minus that team's expected wins. How SOR is calculated
