How do we know that?
Once coaches have figured out which is the right yard line to start at every time, I'd think the team with the next choice of who gets the ball, informed by the strengths of the teams and what has happened that game, including injuries, would have an advantage.
Isn't the current coin toss winner something like 52% likely to win? I can't find a stat that includes the last two seasons. But that's tough to improve on. College is around 55% in favor of the team going second
