I'm creating a weekly pickem pool and want to rank players from high score to lowest and compare the current weeks ranking to the previous week

So if I enter each player's points each week in a sheet called Scores:

Book1
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRS
1PlayerWeek 1Week 2Week 3Week 4Week 5Week 6Week 7Week 8Week 9Week 10Week 11Week 12Week 13Week 14Week 15Week 16Week 17Total

3Player 2517931
4Player 3114217
5Player 499220
6Player 59151236
7Player 6011819
8Player 71011728
9Player 81181231
10Player 980816
11Player 10221721
Scores
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
S2:S11S2=SUM(B2:R2)

I want another sheet called Rank that looks like
Book1
ABCDE
1RankPlayerTotal PointsRank Last Week
21Player 5361
32Player 2312
42Player 8314
53Player 7283
64Player 10219
75Player 4205
86Player 1195
96Player 6197
107Player 3176
118Player 9168
Rank


I'd like each player's points to get summed each week from the scores table =Sum(!Scores($B$2:$R$11)) and each player ranked 1-10 (ties are fine) based on the totals. But I also want to know how the player's ranking has changed compared to last week. So if it was week 3, I'd want only the scores for weeks 1 and 2 summed. A formula that says "Sum all but the last non-blank column" and rank them.

Any help is appreciated
 

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Just to get the ball rolling. I would go with a VBA code. Now there might be some A students that could do this using functions or formulas but not me. Let's see if this is close to what you want.

VBA Code:
Sub Rank_Score()
'
Sheets("Rank").Select
Range("D2").Select
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-3]"
    Range("D2").Select
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("D2:D11"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("D2:D11").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    
    Range("A2").Select
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RANK(RC[2],R2C3:R11C3,0)"
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A2:A11"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("A2:A11").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Range("A2:D11").Select
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Rank").Sort.SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Rank").Sort.SortFields.Add2 Key:=Range("A2:A11"), _
        SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Rank").Sort
        .SetRange Range("A2:D11")
        .Header = xlGuess
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With
     Application.CutCopyMode = False
     Sheets("Rank").Select
     Range("A1").Select
     
End Sub

If your Excel 365 has the new dynamic array formulas (eg SORT(), SORTBY etc) then you could do it with worksheet formulas like this.

On the 'Scores' sheet add two columns with formulas as shown copied down then hide those two columns if you want.

T2:T11T2=S2-LOOKUP(9^9,B2:R2)
U2:U11U2=RANK(T2,T$2:T$11)



On 'Rank' sheet
The formulas shown only need to be entered in row 2 of each column & the results will spill down the column (if you have those required functions)

I slept on my solution and clarified a few items. Just copy and paste the numbers into the weeks and run the program.


VBA Code:
Sub Rank_Score()
'
Sheets("Rank").Select
Range("D2").Select
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-3]"
    Range("D2").Select
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("D2:D11"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("D2:D11").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    
    Range("A2").Select
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RANK(RC[2],R2C3:R11C3,0)"
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A2:A11"), Type:=xlFillDefault
    Range("A2:A11").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Range("A2:D11").Select
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Rank").Sort.SortFields.Clear
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Rank").Sort.SortFields.Add2 Key:=Range("A2:A11"), _
        SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Rank").Sort
        .SetRange Range("A2:D11")
        .Header = xlGuess
        .MatchCase = False
        .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
        .SortMethod = xlPinYin
        .Apply
    End With
     Application.CutCopyMode = False
     Sheets("Rank").Select
     Range("A1").Select
     
End Sub
