I have three that I put higher than any others:
Hawaii: 5.5 points
LSU: 5.5 points
Va Tech: 5 points
I have several that I rate at 4.5 points like Boise, Auburn, Oregon, Clemson, Ohio St, Oklahoma, Florida, aTm.
I'm sure there are some that are significant that I just don't know about, especially if it's at elevation.

Some other ones:
Nebraska (they've sucked for awhile, but they haven't lost a home night game in a long, long time. 17 straight wins, I think it is. Beat Sparty last year, Beat Braxton Miller, Beat Wisconsin the same year they scored 70 vs us in the conf title game, beat Michigan)

Any team with 70K plus in the stands is an advantage.
The real question is. How much of the point spread is affected against us by those huge home field advantages??
That would be great to find out...

wash can be pretty tough. wazzu can be tough later in the year. gets cold there and they have seemed to handle the conditions in the pass game better than the opposition the last couple years.

Pretty much a regular
Georgia Southern, although they have moved from grass to artificial turf this season
