Largest Increase in Points

Getting back to the CFCL Post Season Awards.  Today we look at another award that was created in 1985.  Having two seasons under our belt we had the ability to see how teams had done, compared to themselves, from the previous season.  We decided to award the team that increased their point total the most with the (creative name) Largest Increase in Points.  Pretty self explanatory.  As you can see on the list below, there have been some magnificent increases.

This award is good and bad at the same time.  In most cases, the reason for winning the award is having a good year (the good) immediately following having a really poor year (the bad).  But the overall good news should be that since we're talking about an increase from one year to the next, the team is trending in the right direction.

Two teams (Copperfields and Lambchops) increased the point total one year to the next by over 50 points.  The Kenndoza Line and Dem Rebels have the most amazing transformations, increasing an astounding 67 points from 2004 to 2005 and 65 points from 2006 to 2007 respectively!  Since we keep score in ten categories, that means they increased their place in each category an average of almost seven places.
