00:00Why was Alabama only five and a half point favorites of Oklahoma?

00:03The reason why the Sooners were able to take them out in Tuscaloosa, 23 to 21, putting Alabama's postseason hopes in peril here a little bit.

00:13They're going to have to win out the rest of the season.

00:14Oklahoma may be in a better spot, Bill, with their head to head win now against the Crimson Tide.

00:20What a great, great finish for them, including a great play on defense to get things done.

00:26Oh, yeah.

00:26Yeah, the turnovers and same formula that happened last year.

00:31We talked about it last week.

00:33Alabama had the turnovers and they couldn't run the football and Oklahoma took advantage.

00:37I mean, it's not like John Mateer had huge statistics in this game.

00:41They just made the plays when they needed to.

00:43So huge win for Oklahoma.

00:45I think what to watch for in the playoff rankings tonight is how do they stack up Alabama, Oklahoma, Notre Dame from 8 to 10?

00:54I think the top seven teams will be pretty universal, but will they put Oklahoma over Alabama, which they should?

01:00Will they put Notre Dame over Alabama, which maybe they should?

01:03And keep in mind that 8-9 game, that's the difference between hosting a first-round game and being on the road.

01:08People do it.

01:23You can set them up left.

01:25Wait for your baskets.
