Whats everyone's homeaway records at D1 in the new engine so far?

Home: 21-1
Away: 6-14

Three teams (tennessee 17 RPI - smith, baylor 44 RPI - crum, stanford 17 RPI - phelan) this is my home and away records so far.

I encourage everyone to collect their records so we can get this fixed.

(It might be bad in D2/D3 but i havent watched that.)

My teams

Buffalo - RPI 85 SOS 149 Record 7-5 overall

B+ HCA (4-0 @ Home, 3-5 Away)

Duke, 8 RPI, Allen; 7-0 Home, 6-1 Road
Marquette, 55 RPI, Tark; 10-1 Home, 8-6 Road
George Washington, 94 RPI, Crum; 4-1 Home, 3-2 Road

Florida State (Phelan): 9-0 at home; 6-3 on the road

Georgetown (Tark): 11-1 at home; 7-6 on the road

6-1 at home, 4-3 on the road in Smith with Cincinnati

i'm actually doing better on the road than i expected

one thing, many d1 coaches trump up the non conf portion of the home away records by playing sims away and humans at home, of course, at some point you run out of humans to play, but still can play 10 sims on the road, so conf home and away is much more relevant that the non conf home and away, I think this may be the reason why home records in hd are so goofed up, as many home sim teams have to play multiple top twenty teams, making home and away overall calcualtions off base, seble told me a few days ago, for all games with the new engine, home winning % is 55-56%

my home / away

6-1/2-3
6-0/5-4
6-1/3-0
13-0/6-6
11-0/6-1

at home 42-2 / on the road 22-14

I can only tell you, my road schedule is EASIER than my home, not that it matters, the stats tell the story either way

interesting eh?

Shouldn't home records be a lot better than road records? In real basketball its a big deal to have HCA, at least in the Big 10 that I watch. Wisconsin has like a .900 win pct at home and about .550 on the road in the big 10 the last 6-8 years.

My conference is 56-37 (60%) at home and 35-48 on the road (42%).

What does the home away record look like for Duke/UNC the last 10 seasons, or any of the other big rivalries?

About a year ago, I was pretty ticked off at the HCA and looked at about 8-10 years of data comparing the real Big East to the one in Crum.

To my disappointment, WIS got it pretty close and I did not really have anything to complain about.

I guess at some point, I will have to do another comparison for the new engine.

However, it seems that people are not so much complaining about winning at home and losing on the road as they are complaining about the massive point swings.

both real life and HD in terms of HCA are wrong for the following conflicting reasons

1 - in HD, top d1 coaches play sim teams on the road to pull up their RPI, hence this weakens the overalll home winning %

2 - in real life, top d1 coaches play bad teams at home in order to guarantee wins, which pulls up the RPI as best they can, hence this strenthens the overall home winning %'s

Bo ryan's badgers make uwgb play 5 times at madison to each road visit at gb, it is under contract, last year at gb, gb won by the way - but not by 50 pts, by a handful

I don't find this RL vs. HD comparison particularly valid.

In real life, almost all teams schedule a bunch of easy non-conference games at home. They don't play anything even remotely comparable to the type of home schedules that the majority of human-coached teams play.

So with that in mind, I firmly believe that something is wrong if RL home winning percentage isn't clearly higher than HD's.

EDIT: OR stole my thunder.

thats about right, home advantage should be bigge than i have seen it in this game in the past. its nice to see they are adding it more. think abut 20 thousand yelling and screaming for your team or even 10k. big advantage.

Very scientific, well-reasoned response. Thank you.

It may be an issue in div II as well just not as bad. In our conf we have teams who are 6-0, 6-0, 6-0, 6-0, 7-0, 6-2 at home. They are 5-1, 4-2, 5-2, 3-4, 6-0, 5-2, and 3-2 on the road... Not as extreme, but these are some of the best in this world. They are unstoppable at home, and winning big. They lost some very questionable games, but its not like whats happening in div I where they win by 50 then lose by 20.

7-2 at home, 4-1 away, with a non-con schedule I inherited from simmy.

That is why comparing conference W/L records is more relavant. Can't believe Ryan even has a job anymore.
