Our power rating

Rated #8 of Maine's 23 8-man teams. After 9 games the data can't yet tell Cape Elizabeth apart from an average team.

6.1 points vs. an average Maine team (80% band -3.6 to 15.8) · rank #8 among 8-man teams · est. <1% chance of being the top-rated team in 8-Man Large South, est. <1% in all of 8-man

9 games of evidence; 10% of today's number is still the starting assumption (average 8L team); from Week 7 on last season doesn't count at all. A band that touches 0 means the data can't yet separate this team from average. How the rating works →
