I have 4 columns and I put conditions on the cells.
In these columns, we have our bowl game predictions.
After each game, I put a condition to change the
background color to yellow if that person won the pick or
grey if they lost.
At the end, I want a function to calculate how many
yellow blocks were in that column and how many grey ones
to do a winning percentage.
Please help

You should be able to COUNTIF based on the conditions that colored the cells.

=COUNTIF(A1:D100,"lost")/COUNTA(A1:A100) format as Percentage
=COUNTIF(A1:D100,"won")/COUNTA(A1:A100) format as Percentage

To determine the cell colorindex of CF cells requires some VBA.
