At the Oregon, New Jersey, and Pittsburgh regionals, the alliances with the best OPR were the winners. Over the years, it has been consistant that the OPR team score was a 90%ile indicator of sucess. Bongle makes a great point about the defense as the 1251+1612+86 alliance was the number 2 rated defense in the eliminations. I am curious about how many of the regional winning teams were predicted by OPR for weeks 1 & 2 in 2010. At a glance, Florida seems the exception.
