Win against better players but lose against weaker ones

Recently I've been playing quite a few games against players of both higher and lower rated. Hower, so far I have managed to beat all 2 of the higher rated players, yet I have a lower success rate against the lower ones. Is it because I am not used to irregular openings the weaker players play, while being strong against common openings?
