Home team

[Hbg]

All four first round games were won convincingly by the home team. Can someone explain why these games aren’t played at a neutral site like the NCAA basketball tournament?

Id say only 1 and maybe 2 seed should get @home

I like the home field idea but they do need to get it right. We absolutely deserved a home game over Texas for example. But that 9 and 8 seed game is always gonna be rough for the 9 I suspect.

Besides they really didn’t have a full home field advantage. It was pretty close to neutral 65-35 is what it seemed.

Hate to admit it, but Ohio State would've boat raced us in Neyland the way we played tonight. Flat across the board.

Ohio State honestly probably still beats us in Neyland but it would have been much closer. The difference between home games and road games is insane with this staff.
