Re: 2007-2008 CBB mechanical Home small faves System
[ QUOTE ]
Should home-court advantage be weighed perhaps a little less for these games? Crowd-size should be smaller and less enthusiastic than normal since most students will be hopping out of town. Obviously away-team is still traveling to an unfamiliar environment but I was under the assumption that the influence of the fans in attendance made a difference to the home-team also. I remember going to a couple of Tuesday-before-Thanksgiving games and mid-majors like Miami-Ohio and Wright St and sometimes the crowds are less than half of what they would normally be. Just something to think about anyway. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I think this is an interesting point. It probably holds more weight with a school like Miami because its not a big commuter school. The effect may not be as large for a school like Akron. I wish my Muskies were playing at Miami this week instead of last. |
