And it's not the issue if "home field" works or not. The issue is what the kids have earned on the field.
But see I don't think that the players are complaining at all, I've never heard of one ever complain about it. Almost everyone I know that plays(from Burton and elsewhere) loved playing at UVAW and on that field, that's the only time most will be on a college field, they get that and would much rather play there than where they have at least 5 times during the season. It's just the fans that want it at home, that's all this is, IMO the players either 1) Don't care and just want to play football or 2) would like to play at UVAW. I don't think that the GC players nor any players around here think their fans are that special that they help determine a game, it'd actually show more support if their fans traveled a little as opposed to walking/driving a 2 minutes to see them play.
