Team Metrics
- AdjEff
- Opponent-Adjusted Efficiency - A team's projected margin of victory against an average opponent on a neutral field
- AdjO
- Opponent-Adjusted Offensive Efficiency - A team's projected points for against an average team on a neutral field
- AdjD
- Opponent-Adjusted Defensive Efficiency - A team's projected points allowed against an average team on a neutral field
- AdjHFA
- Opponent-Adjusted Home-Field Advantage - The expected positive/negative difference in team performance from a neutral field to home/away
- Typical Top 25 Team
- A hypothetical team with an AdjEff rating of +30
- Elite Team
- A hypothetical team with an AdjEff rating of +36
- Good Team
- A hypothetical team with an AdjEff rating of +18
- Average Team
- A hypothetical team with an AdjEff rating of 0
- MOV+
- Margin of Victory Plus - How much more or less you’ve outscored your opponents than a typical Top 25 team would be expected to
- SOR
- Strength of Record - The likelihood a typical Top 25 team would have a W-L record at least as good against the same opponents
- E+
- Elite Games - The percentage of games where a team performed at an elite level or better
- G+
- Good Games - The percentage of games where a team performed at a good level or better
- A+
- Average Games - The percentage of games where a team performed at an average level or better
- BA
- Below Average Games - The percentage of games where a team performed at a below average level
- EAW
- Elite Adjusted Wins - How many more/fewer games the team has won than an elite team would be expected to win
- GAW
- Good Adjusted Wins - How many more/fewer games the team has won than a good team would be expected to win
- AAW
- Average Adjusted Wins - How many more/fewer games the team has won than an average team would be expected to win
- Pool A
- The pool of playoff bids available to conferences' champions
- Pool B
- The pool of playoff bids available to independent teams or teams in a conference that does not have an automatic bid (every DIII football conference currently has an automatic bid, and not enough teams are independent to qualify for any Pool B bids)
- Pool C
- The pool of playoff bids available for teams who did not receive a Pool A or Pool B bid
- SOS
- Strength of Schedule - The average expected win probability of a team's opponents against an average team
- SOS+
- Strength of Schedule Plus - The average expected win probability of a team's opponents against a typical Top 25 team
- NCSOS
- Non-Conference Strength of Schedule - The average expected win probability of a team's non-conference opponents against an average team
Player Metrics
- TAY/P
- Total Adjusted Yards per Play - An efficiency metric that gives boosts for positive plays and penalties for negative plays:
- pTAYP
- Playmaker Total Adjusted Yards per Play - For defenders, the average yards prevented due to the player’s box score statistics
- dTAYP
- Defender Total Adjusted Yards per Play - For defenders, the average yards prevented/allowed due to their non-box score contributions to the overall team defensive efficiency
- TAY/P+
- Total Adjusted Yards per Play Plus - Opponent-adjusted total adjusted yards per play
- HVC
- Havoc Plays - Tackles for loss, pass breakups, interceptions, forced fumbles, fumble recoveries, and blocked kicks/punts
- YARP
- Yards Above Replacement Player - How many yards an offensive player added/a defensive player prevented relative to what a replacement player would have accounted for
- Replacement Player
- A hypothetical player who has the average production and efficiency of all non-starters at his position
