Has to be Missouri: Neutral there and Home in November against an SEC opponent.

I'd take Stanford (2/2 with 2 November games) over that. Or Virginia (2/1 in BYU's favor). But you're

Virginia is a combo of coach buyout or trade

I know, but it resulted in a home/home turning into a 2/1 for BYU.

My only issue with the Stanford deal is that both Nov games are on the road.

I think it's a good trade off- good games in November away from Utah in warm California makes sense

LSU "neutral" site -- LOL.

It's a 4 hour drive and in a different State. Yes, they'll outnumber BYU by a wide margin.

Man- LSU in Houston is a home game- so many LSU fans all over Houston

Is it being played at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge? Then it's not a home game.

I predict it will be sold out 20% BYU- that's pretty home worthy

Still not a home game not matter how you slice it.

It is in the way that matters most: crowd influence on the refereeing. Studies

Still not a home game. If Oregon and Michigan State play in the Rose Bowl, there will likely be more

Bad comparison, because the fans would be fairly evenly split. Playing LSU in

Now you're switching arguments.
Gentleman Stan

No, I'm not. My argument is that the crowd is the most important part of home

Studies haven't shown that. You cited the one "study" from a site called freakonomics.
Gentleman Stan

Can you cite any studies that have reached a different conclusion?

Freakonomics didn't sponsor or publish the study. They just wrote an article

If we get to 20%, it will be an accomplishment.

Yes, it will be much more like a home game for LSU. That doesn't change the fact that it's a neutral.

More LSU fans in Houston than UH fans

Boise State. G5 label aside, a 12 yr deal with one of the best programs in CFB.

You're right if this game was in November it would be so much better

Either Stanford or USC (my vote) meaningful games in November are huge

What about Wisky home/home?

Thought that was a delayed 2 for 1: 2013 at Wisky, 2017 in Provo, 2018 at Wisky.
