Can someone give the power point formula. I know a little bit of it but not all of it.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong...
but i believe it's like this
for every single A opponent...you get 16 if you win, 4 if you lose
AA...you get 20 if you win, 8 if you lose
AAA...you get 24 if you win, 12 if you lose

Then for your opponents...
you get 2 points every time an opponent who you have beaten wins (i.e. J. J. Kelly gets 2 points each time Coeburn wins)
you get 1 point each time an opponent who has beaten you wins (so J. J. Kelly get 1 point for each of Clintwood's victories).

That may or may not make sense...haha. but I can explain further if it doesn't. hope that helps.

For some reason I am thinking that you get more points for playing a higher division team than just the class. I am not positive about that though.

There's a guy from George Wythe that posts a chart with everyone listed on Virginia Preps every weekend. Helper also has them at his site.

not yet.
I've gotten tired of running ratings too early, when they don't mean anything.
I'll be posting them tomorrrow, after I reconcile them with the official numbers, which were released this morning but are way off because the 8/20 games were left out.

The simplied formula is...
12 for playing a AAA team, 8 for AA, 4 for A, then 12 more for each win.
2 for each win by a team you beat
1 for each win by a team that beat you.
