I don't really have a problem with the tie breaker system as is. Remember, no matter what system GLB uses someone is going to be mad about it every offseason. There really is no perfect solution. It's not really too big of a deal to me since if you are going to have to play somebody at some point anyway if you want to win your league.

True but if you're going to have a feature it ought to be the best you can make of it. And when you have 255-0 games for reasons unrelated to the quality of the winning team, using score is probably not the best way to go.

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
I can get behind this. +1

Is the margin of victory blowout-adjusted, or do they only do that for players and not teams?
