[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What elite defenses has Madison played other than Robinson and Stab?[/quote]

How many are there?[/quote]

Same data -

Opponent-adjusted defensive rating

Robinson — 75.79
Madison — 75.72
Independence — 74.61
Oakton — 72.13
Yorktown — 71.42
Battlefield — 69.18
Chantilly — 66.36

Raw goals allowed per game in the same sample

Madison: 3.63
Robinson: 3.80
Independence: 3.80
Battlefield: 4.88
Oakton: 6.70
Yorktown: 7.60
Chantilly: 11.09[/quote]

How did you come up with these? Why is the offensive score in the teens and the defensive scores in the 60s and 70s. [/quote]

I used the LN data on the 6a teams ratings, then took the game by game results of the top teams in discussion and came up with an opponent-adjusted offensive and defensive scale, but I didn't take the time to make them consistent. I should have done that so the O and D versions were more comparable, based on goals.

I've done that now.

Adj Off, best to worst

Independence — 16.89
Yorktown — 13.60
Robinson — 13.56
Madison — 11.83
Chantilly — 11.29
Battlefield — 11.14
Oakton — 9.31

Adj Def, best to worst (lower goals allowed is better)

Robinson — 2.74
Madison — 2.80
Independence — 3.91
Oakton — 6.39
Yorktown — 7.10
Battlefield — 7.43
Chantilly — 12.16[/quote]

What’s an opponent adjusted scale and why have the team orders changed again lol

This is a mess[/quote]

Do you not understand the difference between offense and defense?[/quote]

Lololol really man

Quickly threw together an opponent-adjusted offensive rating:

Independence — 17.66
Yorktown — 13.55
Battlefield — 13.12
Robinson — 13.01
Chantilly — 12.37
Madison — 11.50
Oakton — 9.22

Shorthand from this version of the model:

Elite scoring case: Independence
Very strong: Yorktown, Battlefield, Robinson
Solid but less explosive: Chantilly, Madison
More grindy: Oakton
