Re: Division Strengths

Hi Rob,

You are absolutely correct. However it is still good to compare teams who attend different regionals. I can not believe there is such a big difference in terms of competitiveness among most of the regionals. I am sure there may be a few that are particularly weak.

After we come back from Atlanta, may be during the summer months when I suffer from FRC withdrawal symptom, I will try to assemble all the teams and all the matches into one giant 1674 X 1674 matrix. Then all the interactions will be taken into account. There are quite a few Michigan teams that went to other regionals also. Since I don't invert the matrix to solve for OPR and CCWM, it should not even take that long to solve.
