In the last decade of Big Ten football, home meant more to Iowa than anyone else

The home field means a lot in college football, period.

According to this blog post at philsteele.com, the 120 FBS teams won 63.4 percent of their home games in the last decade.

That isn't surprising. By playing almost all of their softer nonconference games at home, teams are going to have better home records than road marks.

Still, home is homier to some than others. Take Iowa.

In the 2000s, the Hawkeyes won 78.46 percent of their home games and just 46 percent of their road contests. That difference of 32.46 percent is the largest of all Big Ten teams, and 10th-largest in FBS.

Iowa State (59.38 percent home, 26.92 road) is right behind at 11th, with a difference of 32.45 (My math says 32.46, but I'm going with Steele's chart. He rounded some numbers off, apparently,) That's third in the Big 12, behind Kansas State and Kansas.

Does this mean anything? I don't know. You tell me.

Boise State (96.92 percent) had the best home winning percentage in the '00s. The best road win percentage was Texas (88.64).

The only team with a better road percentage than home was Georgia.
