Transparent by design

How the rankings work.

OnTheField.fyi orders teams using observable résumé evidence. It does not compress the evidence into a proprietary rating.

Ranking priority

The official order

  1. 01
    Wins

    More wins rank first.

  2. 02
    Win-Wins

    Total wins of the teams defeated; higher is better.

  3. 03
    Losses

    Fewer losses are preferred.

  4. 04
    Loss-Wins

    Wins by teams that defeated you; higher is preferred.

Schedule context

Four quadrants

After the official order is calculated, ranked teams are divided into four equal groups.

Q1Highest-ranked opponents
Q2Upper-middle opponents
Q3Lower-middle opponents
Q4Lowest-ranked opponents

Quadrant records describe schedule composition; they do not create a separate composite score.

The principle

Show the evidence behind the rankings.

Use the comparison pages to see why one résumé ranks higher—and what evidence may still support the team below it.
