This is the recommended choice for large divisions (16 teams or more), divisions where there is a large variation in team skill levels, or divisions where there are not enough games in the season for every team to play every other team.

Division standings are based on team ratings, with rating points either transferred from the loser of a game to the winner, or regularly recalculated based on all known results.

NOTE: If you use this schedule type, be sure not to select the "None" rating calculator.

USA Ultimate developed their current College ranking system to replace the RRI system. It is not clear what weakness in RRI was being addressed with this change.

With the USA Ultimate College system, ratings are re-calculated on a daily basis, taking into account the strength of each team's schedule. For example, if your first game was a loss to a low-ranked team who later prove themselves to have been initially under-estimated, the penalty for that loss will be reduced as the season progresses.

As of 2014, USA Ultimate is using an updated version of this algorithm for both the College and Club series, available here as "USA Ultimate Rankings v2".
