    Anyone think home advantage is less after exams are over?

    Was wondering if anyone has opinion or stats to show that home court advantage is less of a factor on or after exam week? It may be a decent edge when betting today and tomorrow since most schools holiday break starts today. Input welcome, Thanks

    What's your logic behind why it would or wouldn't be?

    This isn't an angle I would predict any stats would justify backing...sure there may be stats because almost everything does...however certain stats don't matter...

    The theory would be that less boisterous atmosphere = less pressure on officials to make homer calls.

    Well, I remember in college that the basketball games during break had little to no students there, which wasnt nearly as loud. This would seem to have less inspiration for the home team. I didnt think of FourLengthsClear's angle about the officials but that could be possible as well.
