08:17 AM ET 07.09 | To the legions of fans who have attend Oklahoma football games over the years, congratulations. Oklahoma has the No. 1 home-field advantage in college football, according to new research by PredictionMachine.com. But, Sooner fans, before you get too excited, know that topping this list isn't necessarily meant to be a badge of honor. Out of 120 FBS teams, defending national champion Alabama ranks 106th and LSU is 108th. The rankings indicate the Sooners play much, much better at home than they do on the road, which is why teams like Alabama and LSU come in so low. "Teams that are consistent national championship contenders should not be as susceptible to playing much better at home than on the road," said Paul Bessire, the website's general manager.
