Alabama’s opponents records (5 teams) less their losses to Alabama are: 13-5 with wins over then ranked Clemson and Georgia. Note: Both marquis wins on the road.
Oklahoma’s opponents records (4 teams) less their losses to Oklahoma are: 8-6 with marquis wins over Cincinnati and TCU. Note: Both marquis wins at home.
Clearly Alabama has played the more robust schedule thus far and in its two marquis wins basically crushed their opponents. OU as well but Alabama clearly holds the edge when discussing opposition. As far as ranked opponents according to today’s polls, OU still has to play: Texas in Dallas, Texas Tech at home, Kansas at home and Oklahoma State in Stillwater Alabama has yet to play at LSU and then at home against Auburn The Crimson Tide also have heated rivalries at Tennessee and at home vs. Mississippi. The Sooners host Nebraska.
