Home field

Texas A&M is worth +8.6 points (±3.7) more at home than on the road since 2018 — top tenth of FBS, 99th percentile.

77% at home, 37% on the road against FBS opponents (40-12 home, 13-22 away).

Our model gives every stadium the same flat 2.3-point home edge (why); the books use about 3. Against the closing line this stadium reads +2.3 at home vs. away over 94 games — inside the ±5.4 noise, so the flat number is the honest one here.

Night kickoff — historically worth about half a point more to the home side against the number, and not much more than that. The visitors travel about 488 miles to get here.
