How These Ratings Are Calculated
Each team's rating starts with its scoring margins in every game this season. The model then adjusts for the quality of the opponents faced, so a win over a strong team counts for more than a win over a weak one, and splits the result into an offensive and a defensive rating. Net is adjusted offense minus adjusted defense: how many points better or worse a team is than an average team. SOS shows how tough a team's schedule has been.
