    Weighted Divisional Poll (WDPR) = 1/3rd: This poll is based on the average of your W/L %, your divisional W/L % and the combined average of your division’s WRPI % and W/L%. This poll gives you credit for doing well in your division, but weighs that against your overall record and the strength of your division compared to other divisions. The team with the highest final score gets 1.000 and the rest of the teams divide their final score by the final score of the team with the highest score to determine their component %. The great thing about this poll is that it encourages divisional rivalries and rewards teams for being the best in their division (note: divisions essentialy equate to NCAA conferences in this league). Teams that struggle against divisional opponents could potentially end up hurting 1/3rd of their BCS ranking.
