Home field
Tulsa is worth +1.4 points (±3.8) more at home than on the road since 2018 — bottom tenth of FBS, 9th percentile.
40% at home, 33% on the road against FBS opponents (17-25 home, 17-34 away).
Our model gives every stadium the same flat 2.3-point home edge (why); the books use about 3. Against the closing line this stadium reads -4.0 at home vs. away over 99 games — inside the ±6.1 noise, so the flat number is the honest one here.
Night kickoff — historically worth about half a point more to the home side against the number, and not much more than that. The visitors travel about 201 miles to get here.
