Season scores are percentile ranks vs every scored FBS team-season. The all-time score reads lower than the bars because each season's contribution is dampened for schedule strength (see below). Box-score data begins in 2020.

Game and season scores never change for schedule strength — a dominant game is a dominant game. Only the all-time score weighs a season by who it was played against: seasons below the FBS mean count for less (floor × 0.85); seasons above it are never boosted.
