Unless you think there is some magic to playing at home, and I'm not seeing it this year,

Interesting.
I think I am seeing it in spades, but upon further reflection maybe it's not so clear.

It seems to me that we have played mostly okay at home, though complete with the three-stooges act on offense versus the better teams (S.-C. and Utah). Now that mistake-fest problem is the defining problem of the season, so "except for" may be the controlling issue and is certainly no after-thought.

On the road we have completely stunk out the joint twice, stunk but managed to keep the game competitive once, and played moderately well but still with the ridiculous offensive mistakes once.

At home we outgained each and every opponent. On average 416-191 yds, or 185% of opponents yds from scrimmage.
On the road we outgained only one opponent. On average 322-358, or 90% of opponents yds from scrimmage.

Home we are 4-2.
On the road we are 1-3.

However, we have played better opponents on the road which perhaps is the predominant factor in all of the above.
