Re: Worst Scoring System in Years

I also agree that the system is fine because its based on wins and not points.

If the system was based on points, that meant that the top seeded team must have allowed their opponents to score a lot of points, almost as many as them. While it means that the winning team scored a lot of points, it means they didn't play defense against the other team. I'm not saying that its not good that both teams scored a lot of points, I just feel that ranking by score removes extra variables that are necessary to make an educated guess about how a team performs.
