My opinion is that Tom Holmoe literally cannot get half of the P5 games at home. I agree that it would be better if the games were at home; however, I don't think it's possible to do so at this point. TH had little to know leverage in scheduling when this started. However, that is changing. The deals with P5 teams are gradually getting better and more "fair" or "even". That's because TH has a better starting point in negotiations now than he did to start. His negotiating leverage will continue to get better.

Anyway, my opinion is that TH had the choice of P5 away games with MWC home games or MWC away games with MWC home games. Also the first choice gets us more P5 home games in the future and continues to improve his negotiating point.
