Dumb question to ask, but how do they figure percentages with ties? Looking at Cent, they have a record of 0-2-1, but have a winning percentage of .250. Wouldn't SUU have a higher "winning percentage" with a 0-1-3 record?

A tie is worth 0.5 of a win. The percentage is computed: (Wins X 1 + Ties X 0.5) / Total Games.

Cent: (0X1 + 1X0.5) / 3 = (0 + .5) / 3 = .167
SUU: (0X1 + 3X0.5) / 4 = (0 + 1.5) / 4 = .375


I don't know exactly how, but I screwed up on my first post. Cent should've had the percentage for SUU, and I have no idea where the .250 came from. It's all fixed now and updated through Thursday's games.

Thanks for the clarification. Makes more sense now...

Big weekend for the Bison in conference. Up tonight against the Jacks, who are pretty average but give us trouble, and on Saturday against Western Illinois who are well into the top 100 and are on a 10 game unbeaten steak. They are going to be tough. I thought the Creighton win was big but this will be the best team to visit Ellig this year.
By the end of the weekend we could either be in control of the conference or also rans.
GO BISON!!!

Missed a couple days with the Gopher weekend. Our ladies need a couple more conference wins to get back in the hunt.

Tie with Oakland actually jumps NDSU up two spots.

How do we look in the standings?
