I think it should be 1 pt per game played between us.
That would show which school actually won more games and in the end, won the season series.
The point system is interesting...but essentially its a subjective bias toward the different sports. I will admit though, that most people care more about the football and basketball games so the points show us more what sports we care about, not what sports should receive more points for wins.
Problem is you only play one football game a year. So whoever has the stronger Baseball and softball teams would have the advantage it every event was worth 1pt. They play four times in both of these. We play two bball games so the total is 10pts and because of title IX the woman's games are 5pts each for a total of 10 pts.
Too bad they don't include track and field. Then it would be a runaway.
