Based on 221 Division I games.
For those who may not be familiar with CHODR, a full introduction is
posted in a separate message. Briefly, the system assigns offensive
and defensive ratings to each of the 44 Division I teams based on
goals for and against while accounting for strength of schedule. The
overall ratings are simply the difference between the offensive and
defensive ratings. CHODR also allows us to predict the scores (and
win probabilities) of upcoming games.
