Order of teams in Results column edit

In the Results column, what should the order of the teams be? The same as in the Teams and Affiliations columns, like this, so that the order is consistent between the three columns? Or winner first, like this, because "US media traditionally list scores winner-first"? There's a third option too, which is both -- that is, after a game is played, change the order in the Teams and Affiliations columns, if necessary, so that the winning team is listed first. I'm not too crazy about the second option, it's a bit confusing. The third option is a little more work but might give us the best of both worlds, so I guess I'd suggest that.

For the games played so far, I've gone ahead here and changed the order of the teams in the Teams and Affiliations columns to match the order in the Results column. I suggest that this pattern be followed going forward, so that the order of the teams is the same in all three columns, and so that the winning team is listed first.
