The betting odds for Friday night's College Football Playoff matchup between Alabama and Oklahoma have seen a big shift just a day before the game.
It was a surprise to many when Alabama football opened as a 1.5-point favorite over Oklahoma on the road for the first round of the College Football Playoff.
The Crimson Tide has not played well enough in recent weeks to be favored over any quality team, especially on the road. It was even more surprising given that this is a rematch of a regular season meeting that Oklahoma won in Tuscaloosa.
