Rankings and Bid Allocation

During the college regular season, teams are ranked weekly using a complex algorithm that factors in tournament results and other data points. At the end of the regular season, a final set of rankings determines the number of bids each of the 10 geographical regions receive to the College Championships. Each region gets at least one automatic bid to nationals. Teams can then earn additional wildcard bids for their region based on their rankings.
