4 game win streak

Ok, let me rephrase then. Only 7/358 D1 basketball teams are good road teams.

So you need zero L's on the road to be considered a good road team?

you listed 7, and said he couldnt say nobody, now you dispute that the number is 7? talk about a t being on a roll

I never once disputed any number. I just gave example of teams with no road L's when he in FACT said NOBODY wins on the road.

if teams have fewer road games and/or games against easy opponents on road, this early in season one could easily be undefeated on road yet still NOT be a good road team

Early in the season? Everyone is into their conference games...everyone has issues on the road, regardless of opponent, especially during conference games....

11 top 25 teams lost games yesterday, quite a few were road games for the higher ranked team...

Sixteen seed: You are in.
Sweet 16: You are REALLY in.

Not lying

He didn’t say nobody wins on the road

He said nobody was a good road team. Which means if you win on the road you are considered a good road team. Don't be so shadow man. Have a great day.

I didn’t say nobody wins on the road. I said nobody is a “good” road team. On average, all teams (yes, ALL teams) perform worse on the road than at home. This is a statistical fact: https://www.boydsbets.com/college-ba...urt-advantage/

You can guess the reasons why — travel fatigue, unfamiliarity with the environment, crowd noise, etc. But probably the biggest reason is that the refs themselves have an unintentional bias which makes them call more fouls on away teams (also a statistical fact.)

So yeah, winning away from home is really hard. Any road win is a “good” win.

You can not play well on the road and still win depending on your opponent. Being a good road team would be that you play better on the road than home.

Not exactly. Just about every team will have a better winning percentage than at home. I gave examples of undefeated road teams, they happen to be good on the road and at home. Teams can be both.
