RE: Off Campus vs. On Campus Stadium
First off, I want to again thank everyone who contributed to the conversation. For those of you who are interested, I'm posting today to provide the results of my research.

Question: Does playing at an on-campus stadium, holding all else equal, affect overall win percentage for Division 1-A college football programs?

Answer: Based on my results, teams do win more games when their stadium is located on-campus. However, the t-stat on the regression analysis was <2 (meaning the increase in win percentage for teams located on-campus was such a low percentage that it should be considered insignificant.

Quick notes:
  • The research included 170 observations
  • Football.stassen.com was used to compile win/loss records
  • FootballGeography.com was used to classify teams as on-campus vs. off-campus

*I have attached the regression analysis for anyone that would like to look at the information a little further.

If you have any further questions, feel free to send me a PM and I'd be glad to answer them.
