I've been tinkering with my power rating this weekend and decided to pull data from the past few seasons (back to 2019).
I found a few interesting nuggets while analyzing OSU.
Points Per Opportunity (Average points allowed when opponent crosses the 40 yard line. Used to determine team's ability to stop drives from finishing):
Timeframe Average: 3.77
98th Percentile: 2.36
Current OSU: 0.6 (best of the timeframe. Next closest is 1.8)
Success Rate (Successful plays meet one of the following criteria: the offense scored,
1st downs which gain at least 50% of the yards to go, 2nd downs which gain at least 70% of the yards to go, 3rd and 4th downs which gain at least 100% of the yards to go)
Timeframe Average: 41.8%
98th Percentile: 34.6%
Current OSU: 33.0% (Ranks 13th best)
Havoc Rate (Sacks, TFLs, PD, Turnovers)
Timeframe Average: 17.4%
98th Percentile: 25.7%
Current OSU: 22.2% (Ranks 64th. 92nd Percentile)
Obviously, a lot of this is a function of our schedule and will regression to the mean with more games, but it's a pretty ridiculous start.
