3A Final 16 by the Numbers

I applaud the effort. But power ratings do not necessarily translate into game day predictability.


Game day predictability was never the goal. The data accuracy is a legitimate concern, there were some places where reconciling data posted by one school wasn't exactly matched up to data posted by another school but for the most part it was within a percentage of error that was acceptable. PT was the biggest offender and their posted stats on KHSAA especially defensively were way off. It took time and had to be compiled game by game but the numbers should be close. Also I am not sure what data is being excluded. Defensive data is being included.

Also as Hound05 stated is that it's meant to be objective based on on field performance alone. 30 years from now when people look at Powell County's 8-4 record they are going to see Powell had a solid year and a District Title. No one will remember they won 8 games on a crappy schedule.

I adjusted the SoS weight a bit more using CalPreps SoS ratings. It made things better but gives Lex Cath too much boost in my opinion. If I weren't using numbers to build the list I would slip Lex Cath below ETwon and could be happy with the list as a Top 16 remaining. The Power Ranking was only included as a fun aside and is not attempt to say "this is the pecking order"

Current list:
Boyle
Lexington Catholic - Heavily benefits from SoS
Belfry
Central
Corbin
Waggener
Etown
Garrard Co
Caldwell
Paducah Tilghman
Western Hills
Bell
Casey
Floyd Central
LaRue
Powell
