No it's not, read again. My comment was about W/L record vs WR, not that WR trumps everything else. That is everything else being equal. In fact I should have said that it's actually both team WR that matters, as gates will be different if you play the #1 team in the country or the #25. Rival and TV also get a boost.
You seem confused. Winning the game before a home game has indeed a huge impact, but that is not W/L, it's merely correlated with it. Just like W/L record and WR are correlated but not the same thing. You can see the difference in teams that lose all their away games and the difference is larger in D1.
