Question Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting

Did the OPR miss the mark for the Florida Regional? The alliance of 1251 + 1612 + 86 won the whole shebang with a combined OPR of 5.4 versus alliances with group OPRs of 9.9, 9.2, 7.1, 6.4, 5.6, 5.2, and 5.10. If OPR were a good predictor wouldn't the team of 1592 + 179 + 3164 be a virtual lock with a group OPR of 9.9? In the past OPR usually was a good indicator of the strongest alliance in the elimination rounds. In the Quarterfinals, the top three teams by group OPR were knocked off.
