GLOSSARY · STATISTIC

Points scored

NFL non-kicker points include recorded rushing, receiving and return scoring, plus recorded two-point conversions. CFB non-kicker points are six times rushing, receiving and all return touchdowns (kick, punt, interception and fumble); passing touchdowns belong in points responsible for, not points scored. CFB excludes two-point conversions, which are unavailable from the source.

Formula: CFB: 6 × (rushing TD + receiving TD + return TD). PTS/G = PTS / games with recorded statistics.
