From the weighed average OPR numbers, I put all 4 divisions on a chart and sorted in descending order. I also added the Michigan State Championship numbers as a comparison.
Using weighed average OPR data, the mean of each division is
Archimedes 2.00
Curie 1.97
Galileo 1.69
Newton 1.75
MSC 2.47
Looking at the graph, I have the following observations
1) The upper half of Archimedes is stronger than Curie but the bottom half of Currie is stronger than Archimedes. The mean is about the same as the numbers show.
2) Galileo and Newton are weaker than Archimeedes and Curie.
3) There is an obvious kink/knee at around 10 meaning the top 10 teams drop off at a much faster rate in OPR than the remaining teams.
Now comparing to Michigan State Championship, MSC is clearly higher in the whole range. This was not the case last year. Please refer to my old post from last year.

Have fun looking at the numbers.
