Alabama opens as 2-score road favorite at Oklahoma
No. 10 Alabama is in a great spot as the regular season is nearing its end. The Crimson Tide is alive for both the SEC title and the College Football Playoff with two games to go, the first of those two games being a road trip out west to play Oklahoma.
According to FanDuel, Alabama is a 13.5-point favorite on the road against the Sooners on Saturday night. The Crimson Tide can be bet at -610 on the moneyline, while a bet for Oklahoma would be +440.

Alabama is 6-4 against the spread, and has covered as a favorite in two straight games. The Crimson Tide covered a massive 42-point spread against Mercer this past weekend, and the week before, covered as a road favorite over LSU, winning 42-13 when the spread was only -2.5.
Oklahoma’s 5-5 record on the season matches its 5-5 record against the spread, though the game results haven’t always lined up. Last time out, the Sooners failed to cover as 3.5-point road favorites at Missouri. The Sooners have been home underdogs twice the season, to Tennessee and South Carolina, and lost both games outright, both by double figures.
This will be Alabama’s second ever trip to Norman, and first since 2002, a game Alabama lost 37-27.
