[NU Sports] Home Court Advantage

[Evans Schoeman]

Interesting table from Rivals.com.  According to this, we have the 5th worst home court winning percentage since 2005 among "big six" conference teams.  Penn State is the only other team on the "Top 10" list.

Even this year, we've lost 3 games at home, although each was to a team ranked at the time (Butler, MSU, Wisconsin).  This needs to change if NU expects to consistently compete for an NCAA berth.  It's just too difficult to win on the road in the Big Ten.
