It should be noted that this game was the day before Thanksgiving and as such The ROC did not have as many people and they didn't have the infamous black and white zig zag banners and signs. I'm going to take the liberty of excluding it from the final tallies.

So it seems like we are holding teams well below their averages in the Marriot Center in both halves. This could be altitude and just general noise in the first half. But teams are also significantly worse in the second half than the first. Conclusion: The ROC Effect is real.
