Methodology
I took the data from that site. I omitted all the games that did not include a rating. I then took the average rating that each team had per game. I then divided each game's ratings up proportionally based on each team's average ratings. So, for instance, if Team A's average rating was 1, Team B's average rating was 2, and the rating for the game between the two of them was a 6, Team A would get 1/3rd of the rating associated with them (2 points) and Team B would get 2/3rds of them rating associated with them (4 points). Of course, this only reflects one year's results and can be radically affected by how many games a team had on television, as well as on-the-field success and major rivalries.
