If both teams have been home and away the same number of games, there's a coin flip to decide the home team.
It's hard to believe that in 2015 athletics, a coin flip is used a tiebreaker when there are so many other factors which could be used.
Seeding, conference winning percentage, RPI, SOS, etc.

Seems like the seeding should be used.
Who has been home more is just dumb. It makes all teams treated equally. If that is the case why seed. It's a trophy generation approach.
I could see making the lower seeded team the home team if playing a better seeded team but where the lower seeded has a better record in the tourney ... ie where the better seeded team is coming out of the losers bracket.
