Heh. I just set up my scorekeeping spreadsheet. The issue is that in a given year, the winning percentage makes up 80% or more of the score in almost every scenario. (The lowest plausible is 7-9 with four straight postseason wins--55 of 70 points.) When the rules above are applied to an entire 10-year career of going .500 with no conference titles or bowl wins, you'd get 80 points from the 80 wins, and 50 points from the winning percentage. However, if you score year-to-year, each season gives you 58 points: 50 from the winning percentage, and 8 from the wins. I hadn't thought about that, and I'm sure Quik was intending to apply the scores to the end result.
