With the College Football Playoff underway, four teams have emerged as favorites to win the national championship. The odds, according to DraftKings Sportsbook, favor Georgia, Ohio State, Oregon, and Texas. However, the field of other teams is considered a heavy favorite against these four contenders.
There are 12 teams in the College Football Playoff , but four have emerged as the favorites to win it. The first round of the CFP begins on Friday, when No. 10 Indiana takes on No. 7 Notre Dame. On Saturday, No. 11 SMU takes on No. 6 Penn State in the first weekend CFP game. Then, two of the favorites take the field that day. No. 5 Texas will play host to No. 12 Clemson on Saturday evening, before No. 8 Ohio State hosts No. 9 Tennessee that night. The Longhorns are currently an 11.
5-point favorite over the Tigers, and the Buckeyes are 7.5-point favorites over the Volunteers. But there are odds that go beyond simple game lines. How about Texas and Ohio State vs. the field? How about the other two favorites, Oregon and Georgia, against the best of the rest? Let's dive into the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Dec. 18.
