Ned Freeman of Freeman Scoring explains that a postseason game impacts the rankings at 2.1 times what a regular season game does. Not only do you want to win, but you sure want your regular season opponents to win, too! The more they win, the better your 'Strength Of Schedule' factor. If you lost a few games this year, it's far better for you if those teams who beat you were state champions rather than some 'flash in the pan' who fell apart in November. Cheer them on and smile when their win gives your team a higher ranking. To read more about MaxPrep's Freeman Scoring, read our blog primer, here.
