That matches Waterhead's tiers, which also correspond to actual NET quadrants. SMU/WSU are Q3. Memphis/UCF/@SMU are Q2. The rest are Q1.
We didn't lose any conference home games 2 years ago. We lost 1 last year. We haven't lost one this year yet. Our advantage is clearly at home and I don't expect more than 1 loss at home if that. That doesn't mean it can't happen but I would obviously give Houston a decent chance. The rest of the home games we would have to play like crap and the other team would have to really be on their A game to beat us.
