USL Power Ranking - Week 4

Big losses equal big drops.

By Kreg Asay

Week 4 in the books on Sunday afternoon. All teams have played at least 3 with most of the conference leaders sitting at 4 or 5 games.

A short note about methodology. Basically anything that goes against the ‘expected result’ (home team winning) will have greater change in my rankings. A tie would cause the home team to drop slightly, and the away team to rise. A home team losing would be a bigger drop; loss by a large margin would magnify that as well.
