Ok here is my concern.  I am not able to win on the road in the league against
teams that have less talent than I do.  I coach Tenn St in the OVC and my
current laegue record is 6-5 (5-0 at home and 1-5 on the road).  If I wasn't
the most talented team in the league I would understand but here are the league
talent ratings:
                               Ohio Valley (tier 2)
               Overall      C      PF      SF      SG      PG 
Team            Rnk Sc  Rnk Sc  Rnk Sc  Rnk Sc  Rnk Sc  Rnk Sc
Tennessee St     92 51  166 50   27 56   97 48  148 47   99 54
E Illinois       98 51  248 46  198 45   14 55  108 49   72 56
Austin Peay     124 49   42 56  111 49  120 46  160 46  204 49
Morehead St     159 48  137 51  110 49  108 47  193 45  216 48
Samford         172 47  240 46  103 49  105 47  163 46  201 49
E Kentucky      174 47  171 49  186 46  210 43  161 46  144 52
TN Martin       186 47  131 51  158 47  151 45  184 45  245 46
Murray St       212 46  217 47  218 44  230 42  164 46  196 49
SE Missri St    229 45  212 47  155 47  201 43  198 44  291 44
Tennessee Tc    235 45  214 47  173 47  227 42  261 42  258 45
Jacksnvlle St   240 45  230 47  197 45  225 42  216 44  267 45

Here are my league games:
Tennessee St 78, at Morehead St 73
at Tennessee St 70, E Illinois 69
at Tennessee St 77, SE Missri St 61
at Austin Peay 73, Tennessee St 47
at Tennessee St 72, Jacksnvlle St 52
at Samford 75, Tennessee St 73
at Tennessee St 81, Tennessee Tc 61
at E Kentucky 66, Tennessee St 53
at Murray St 67, Tennessee St 65
at Tennessee St 64, E Kentucky 54
at E Illinois 74, Tennessee St 64 

So my question is why can't I win more than 1 game on the road?  Am I screwing
this team up taht bad with my coaching? Are my expectations that unrealastic?

The thing is that these are bob coached teams for the most part!?!

Any comments would be greatly appreciated!

Just a few observations.  First of all in fact it IS harder to win on the road.
 The sim reflects that and the real game of college basketball reflects that
also.  Your League is very competitive.  You lost to two ranked teams on the
road...St. Louis and Houston.  You beat a pretty good Morehead St team on the
road.  The Samford game was only decided by 2 points.  Eastern Kentucky is a
.500 team.  You only lost by 2 pts to a good Murray St team.  Eastern Illinois
is another good team.
My point is although I understand your frustration, you are not that far from
being a very good team.  You just need to keep tweaking a bit here and there on
your road games.  But like I said they are tough...and should be.
