First of all, conference record should be the first tiebreaker after head-to-head. This would slightly lessen the effect of the "random" out of conference game in week 1. Other than that, I'm not a big fan of points scored or points allowed due to the high presence of CPU teams in GLB, so here is my suggestion for tiebreakers. I like strength of victory to break 3 way ties first because that evaluates which teams beat the best teams, not punishing high offense teams for their defense in blowouts and stuff like that.

New Tiebreaker System:

1. Head-to-Head
2. Conference Record
3. Strength of Victory- explanation- http://football.about.com/cs/football101/g/gl_strengthofvi.htm
4. Points Allowed
5. Points Scored

Should probably define "strength of victory."

Also, for reference: http://wiki.goallineblitz.com/index.php/Playoff_Seeding_and_Tiebreakers

Yeah, I'm wondering how "strength of victory" would be automatically determined.

It is just the sum of the records of all the teams each team beat. Whichever team beat stronger opponents wins the tiebreaker.

So it would basically be who beat the stronger non-conference opponent?

Point differential in GLB is freaking stupid.

Strength of victory (how you define it) is good, though.
