Let's see what it looks like just looking at the numbers for these 10 teams. This includes all games played by these teams over the past 10 seasons.
All bowl games, neutral site games, and modified home games (e.g., LSU in Baton Rouge) are included in 'Other games'.
Comparing the teams' success in their home stadium vs. their other games, it looks like venues for Va. Tech, Wisconsin, and Auburn have been somewhat overrated. It also appears that the reputations of Kyle Field and Autzen Stadium are justified.
