Lmao every time I hear or read Canes do not have a good home field advantage. What is a better measure of home field advantage than home winning percentage..Canes have longest home winning streak in college football history. This report was put out in May of 2013. At that point Canes had 4 th best home winning percent for the last 25 years. Half that time Canes had inept coaching. Winning percent in that 25 years was better than 84%.

Hope VT thinks it will be the noise level of old. We gonna deliver an *** kicking like fans been waiting for
 
I like this theme about how the canes have no HFA. VT has not played in the new HRS layout and last time they played here it was an afternoon game and during Alf’s last season. Some of their guys were there for the 2013 night game but again, they will not have encountered the noise they will sat night bc of the roof.

Says "Orange Bowl".. We don't play in the OB anymore. Since moving to Joe Robbie we haven't had a real or at least consistent home field advantage until Richt got here. Also, winning at home doesn't mean home field advantage.. Looking at the list other then us, UVa, Fresno and Southern Miss the rest has been putting butts in the seats for YEARS.
 
The OB was the very definition of Home Field Advantage. I doubt anything will ever compare but win by win, we can make this place work.
 
This game will be a sellout; plus, you have to factor in how the roof enhances the noise level. If we play well early on and ignite the crowd, VT is in for a long, long game.
 
Noise is one thing, but stadiums where the crowd is right on top of you offer a better HFA.
