NAIA Baseball Rankings: Tennessee Wesleyan, Southeastern lead
TTFB is back with the NAIA Rankings, one centered on a strength index of how a team has competed thus far to a point in a season. In a nutshell, a higher ranking team has fared well against current strong opponents while lower ranked (and some high ranked) teams lose points for “bad” losses.
The JSI Ranking, similar to the Bo Chip, but we have a little more “strength” to it. Games are inputted as of 4/4/21.
It’s hard to gauge this early in the season, some teams just played their first games, while others have completed game 20. As the season rolls on, we will get more and more closer to more accurate projections. Remember, in our first year (can’t count last year), only two teams made the world series final site that wasn’t in our top 10, so we were very accurate by the time the season finalized.
You’ll notice a tie isn’t in any records below. We hate ties and we award no points for such a result. It’s basically a game that shouldn’t have ever been played and according to our records, it never was played. This isn’t soccer.
Feel free to state your case in the comments on why a team should be higher and what YOU have seen out of these teams. Maybe a few good compliments on the rankings, not so much on the bad comments disagreeing with it (we tried?).
If you see an error, record is wrong, etc – email us at [email protected]. We utilized the records off NAIA scoreboard and the games they play, stats, etc, so there’s bound to be games missed.
REMEMBER: This is based on who each team has played so far and how they have fared. Don’t get bent out of shape if a team is currently ranked 34 and you feel they are a top 10 team, once everyone gets some games under their belts, everything will iron itself out. Some teams have less than 10 games played yet.
Recaps on this tomorrow or Wednesday!
We didn’t have a poll the past few weeks, wanted to let the games catch up for everyone, with a month of games entered, and 2,750 games played so far, here’s what the JSI thinks! Some teams made massive moves over the past month with conference play kicking in.
