I've long thought that crowd support makes no real difference in the outcome of sporting events. But I just got done reading the WSJ sports page where they cite a study of the FBS schools with the biggest home-field advantages since 2000 (adjusted for competition and predicted score). Many Wildcats will not be surprised to see BSFS come in at #9 with an adjusted home-field advantage of 4.96pts.
The Big12 is well represented with two other snake-pits making the top 10.
1. North Texas
2. Wisconsin
3. Arkansas
4. Kansas
5. Marshall
6. Baylor
7. Rice
8. Michigan
9. K-State
10. Buffalo
