What they do with those two games is yet to be determined. If they lose them, then this advantage becomes nullified. If they win both then they are leading the conference. Colorado College is control of their own (early season ;-)) destiny. In the end, since all the teams in league will play the same number of games this points per game is really just winning% x 2 (as pointed out earlier, sorry I forgot who). At that point, the points and points per game should tell the same story. So why not just report win% and league points? Eric Hoffman Cornell '88 SUNY-Albany ?? Albany, NY Let's GO RED!
