The 10 Hardest Places to Play College Basketball

In college basketball, home-court advantage is prevalent throughout the country. Of course, some teams benefit more than others. Using numbers running through the 2015–16 season, here’s a look at 10 of the most difficult places to play college basketball.

 

2. Assembly Hall, Indiana

Capacity: 17,357

Winning percentage: .8368

The state of Indiana is synonymous with basketball. Kids are pretty much born with a Spalding in their hands. And the school that these kids grow up idolizing is Indiana University. The dream? To become a Hoosier. That’s why Assembly Hall is a scary place. Packed with extremely devoted fans in their red and whites, it doesn’t matter if the Hoosiers are competing for a national championship or not  when they’re in this building, they always have a chance to win.

I saw Duke left out and figured it was because of the low capacity (~9,000 I think). But somehow Gonzaga and Xavier made the top 10? Weird list.
