Obviously at Koch is the toughest.
What would you say is 2nd?
Home vs. WSU or other?

Is this a trick question?
You probably need to define some parameters, but over the last few years there's little doubt the 2nd toughest venue is at UNI.
If you're just saying this year, I'd give you the same answer.

Yeah, don't understand. WSU and UNI clearly have the two best home court advantages. That hasn't been up for debate in a long time.

Interesting stats. Perhaps more interesting is WSUs conference road record over that same timeframe:
32-6 (2-0, 9-0, 5-4, 8-1, 8-1)

Honestly wasn't trolling
My question is...
When you go look through your schedule, what do you view as your 2nd toughest game?
Hosting Wichita or some other road game?

I think it was a good question. The date range picked indicates that in recent years the odds of winning @ WSU are the lowest followed by home against WSU. @ ISUb and @ UNI are also very tough places to play.

I think the Shocker fans view the road games at UNI and Evansville as the toughest games. Not necessarily due to atmosphere but coaching and matchups. MSU is another tough one based on the fans and atmosphere.

This Shocker fan agrees with Shockem's assessment for Wichita.
