The Quality Results Formula (QRF) was created to try and rank teams from different parts of the state. I won't go into specific detail about the formula, but can give you an idea of how it works.
Each game is given an individual QRF (iQRF) based four things (listed in order of importance)
- Win or Loss
- Opponent wins
- Class differential between the teams
- Margin of victory (or defeat) with a cap on both ends.
Logically, the more wins an opponent has, the higher your opponents Class is, and the more you win by the higher your iQRF is for that game.
When all of a team's iQRF's are added together and divided by the number of MN games played, you come up with a team's QRF.
*Only MN vs. MN games count.
This number is then compared to other teams in the state to come up with an overall ranking.
