It's very very difficult to argue against the Stats ......

45 CofC games played, 42 home wins .... that is 93.3%.

Seems to be a colossal coincidence that the 'best' team just happened to be drawn at home 93% of the time.

Anyway, I'm not interested in arguing about it, but I will state an obvious point ... it seems to devalue the CofC and make it a far less interesting competition than it should be .... teams are now praying for a home draw .... and that's just not right.

But the source code delivers facts...and there is a big exception in the "load-players and skills module", where it is not using the home advantage calculation for the Bowl games as example. We doublechecked it, several times...

OK, look at it in a slightly different way :-

CofC consists (mainly) of Conference Champions , plus (possibly, one or two) 'new' teams that weren't Conf Champs but 'inherited' a CofC place when the original team went Bot.

So ... that should mean that most teams are on a very similar level. Therefore, if there is no homefield advantage, it would seem logical to expect an average of approx 50% wins by home teams .... maybe 60 or 70%, maybe even only 30% or 40% home wins.

But if the teams are (mostly) at a similar level and there is no homefield advantage .... why would 42 of 45 games be home wins ??

It doesn't seem logical to me .... I'd like somebody to explain the logic based upon the stats.

sometimes logic cannot deliver the answer that is right....
