Overall Rationale: The Brian Heidik Method: a win is a win is a win. It doesn't matter how you get there, so long as at the end of the day you are on top. This system can experience wild fluctuation week-to-week as it becomes harder to remain undefeated, and losses to undefeated teams carry more weight.
