Is this the official NCAA Division I table?

No. NCAA Division I publishes its own standings. Ranked XI is an independent national ranking that places all 209 NCAA Division I clubs on one scale alongside every other league in the US pyramid, so cross-league comparison is possible.

Why does this not match the NCAA Division I standings?

Standings measure points won inside one league or conference this season. A Ranked XI rating measures strength on a single national scale, calibrated across tiers on U.S. Open Cup results, so a club can sit high here and mid-table in its own conference.

How many NCAA Division I clubs are rated?

209 of them, led by Southern Methodist University Mustangs at 1610. Clubs whose divisions publish no usable table are listed without a rating rather than being given an invented one.

NCAA Division I rankings — common questions

Why does this not match the NCAA Division I standings?: Standings measure points won inside one league or conference this season. A Ranked XI rating measures strength on a single national scale, calibrated across tiers on U.S. Open Cup results, so a club can sit high here and mid-table in its own conference.
How many NCAA Division I clubs are rated?: 209 of them, led by Southern Methodist University Mustangs at 1610. Clubs whose divisions publish no usable table are listed without a rating rather than being given an invented one.

Every Ranked XI rating labels its basis. Cross-league placement is calibrated on ~600 U.S. Open Cup results — how the ratings work. Ranked XI is an independent project: not an official USSF or league ranking, not affiliated with any league or club, and not betting advice. Marks belong to their owners.
