Alabama hosts Oakland in the NCAA on 9 November 2026, and the Pythia model names Alabama the clear favourite, rating them 98% to win because of a 2-0 season record, 98.5 points per game, and only 80.0 points allowed, while Oakland sits at 0-3, 66.0 points per game and 85.0 points allowed; Alabama has also won both home games, 98.5 points per game, 80.0 allowed, and has a 4-1 record over the last five games, including a 101-86 win over Arkansas State and a 96-74 win over Sam Houston St.; Oakland has gone 0-5 in its last five, with losses to UC Santa Barbara, Stanford and Michigan, all away. Their only meeting was in 2021, when Alabama beat Oakland 86-59. Pythia projects a 99-73 score, 172.3 total points, and a 52% chance of the over on the 171.5 line, with a 98% probability that Alabama covers the spread; the model gives a 2% chance for Oakland to win. The game ends with Alabama's 99 points, Oakland's 73.
Written by Pythia from this game's frozen forecast, the market's main lines and both teams' results.

⏱️ 5. Halves
Half by half
AlabamaOakland
Each team's average half over its last 10 games. Net is the half margin (above zero = the team wins that half on average: who starts fast, who closes); Pythia projection = the half means of tonight's simulation. Hover a bar for its value.
Markets that span the whole game: how the halves and quarters compare, overtime, the exact winning margin. Pythia's probability comes from 20,000 simulations of this game quarter by quarter; the price, edge and books are the same as everywhere on the page.
Every selection Pythia rates above 70%, ranked by edge (click any column to re-sort). Use Min odds to match the prices you want; Edge = Yes shows only selections priced BELOW what the model makes them. The five price columns are the best market prices (highest first); edge is vs the consensus price.
