NCAA.com ranked the toughest home courts in college basketball and the Marriott Center came in at No. 6.
Home of BYU basketball since 1971, the Marriott Center has a seating capacity of 18,987. This past season, BYU’s average home attendance was 14,231, good for 18th in the nation. Cougar fans have ranked among the top 25 in the nation in attendance in 43 of the 47 years since the Marriott Center opened, including the last 11-consecutive seasons.

Home record this century: 252-33 (88.42 percent)
Difference between home and away winning percentage: 35.56 percent
Of the teams in this list that have been in Division I every year this century (all but South Dakota State), BYU sees the greatest boost from its home court. The Cougars win just 53 percent of their games on the road, but at the Marriott Center, fewer than two teams a year escape with a win.
