The best college football programs typically have the most intimidating home environments. Few teams enjoy the experience of visiting venues such as Alabama’s Bryant-Denny Stadium or Oregon’s Autzen Stadium.

But, according to one study, the biggest home-field advantage in college football belongs to a much less-heralded program: North Texas.

This is much more a measure of bad away teams than good home teams.

 

Just sayin...

[JesseMartin]

To a point, yes.  It's more of a "better home than away performance" measure than it is an actual HFA.  But it's still pretty cool to be #1, and about 2/3 of that includes the last years at Fouts!

We've already seen this once this summer...

Another, "oh look a beat headline!" rather than read the article scenario.

Doesn't this just highlight how crappy we are on the road? 

[Matt from A700]

To reiterate, we are just incredibly crappy on the road. Since 2000 we are 39-40 at home and still claim to have the best homefield advantage. That's how bad we are on the road.
