Help Parsing Value from Attribute

Configuration
1

I have a sensor template I am creating to track details about sports teams.

platform: template
sensors:
  cavs_opponent:
    friendly_name: 'Opponent'
    value_template: '{{ states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.message }}'

  cavs_starttime:
    friendly_name: 'Start Time'
    value_template: '{{ states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.start_time }}'

  cavs_channel:
    friendly_name: 'Channel'
    value_template: '{{ states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.location }}'

I want to parse attributes, for example:

Opponent Kings
Start Time Date, Time(CST)
Status Home or Away(Not pictured, depends on parsing attributes, if Opponent contains VS then Home else if Opponent contains @ then Away)
Channel: Fox Sports Ohio

Any tips are appreciated.

Got this working finally found that right syntax for this. Posting here for anyone else who is trying to do the same thing.

platform: template
sensors:
  cavs_opponent:
    friendly_name: 'Opponent'
    value_template: '{{ states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.message.split(" ")[2] }}'

  cavs_homeaway:
    friendly_name: 'Playing at'
    value_template: >-
      {% if is_state('states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.message.split(" ")[1]', 'vs') %}
        Home
      {% else %}
        Away
      {% endif %}

  cavs_starttime:
    friendly_name: 'Start Time'
    value_template: '{{ states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.start_time }}'

  cavs_channel:
    friendly_name: 'Channel'
    value_template: '{{ states.calendar.cavs_united_states.attributes.location.split("Watch on ")[1] }}'
