Episode Synopsis

Oklahomas Home-Field Advantage: A Potential Game-Changer in the College Football PlayoffOklahoma, ranked eighth, hosts ninth-ranked Alabama in the first round of the College Football Playoff on December nineteenth. This home-field advantage, coupled with an extra week of rest, could significantly impact the Sooners preparation. Last season, home teams won all four first-round games, with an average winning margin of nearly twenty points. Alabamas long trip and less recovery time might put them at a disadvantage. Oklahomas extended break allows key players to heal and younger, talented players to gain more practice time, potentially giving the Sooners a strategic edge.The Daily News Now! - Every city.
