In public opinion (popularity), which is largely what the frc top 25 is, teams that have played more recently or have a reputation will be near the top.

Qualitative vs Quantitative.
While frequency doesn't necessarily matter for a thing like OPR, most teams do improve during their second event and thus have a higher OPR unless their original OPR was due to a lucky schedule, or they broke during their second event. The growth tends to be a function of how good you started off. REally good teams may see 10-15% growth at their second event. Good teams may see 15-50% growth. Lower OPR teams tend to double (assuming a postive number).
