How often does the road team cover in these? What... 15%? 20%? I'm half-exaggerating but I wouldn't be at all surprised if that was the actual number. You could put a gun to my head and I wouldn't bet on a road team to cover in one of these games... talent be damned.

NIU, 13.5 point favorite looks like crap

Yeah, that's why I mentioned it. The only recent road team I can think of that covered is Central Florida at Marshall. Other than that I think the last 7 or 8 home teams have covered.

Agreed. Homefield seems pretty big on MNF but it's unreal in the college game. It's gotten to the point where I simply don't bet on road teams in college. I've gotten killed when I have.
