Home Field Advantage is not a Myth

On September 1, Dirk Chatelain of the Omaha World-Herald wrote an article that somehow I missed at the time, but noticed when he retweeted this on Saturday, October 15th.

#B1G road teams went 6-0 today. I can't wait to see the numbers at season's end.https://t.co/ivg3N3NEG6

Dirk maintains that home field advantage in college football isn’t a thing anymore because road teams are winning more than they used to.

He’s wrong.

Considering only the winning percentage of home and away teams doesn’t address the fundamental question.
