Every fall each college football program sets goals for the upcoming season. Some aim for the biggest prize in college football, a national championship, while others just hope for a seat at the table with inclusion to the four team playoff.
BetOnline.AG released Yes/No prices for 27 major programs on the likelihood they will play meaningful football into January. Many of the usual suspects are in the mix, including last year’s final four – Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Washington right alongside some high-profile long shots in Notre Dame, Tennessee, and Oregon.
Alabama is the only team in the entire country favored to make the postseason (-195) with Ohio State, USC, and Florida State next in the pecking order. When exploring a market like this the real question in properly assessing the favorites comes in determining which market, playoff odds or division futures, offers more value. Here’s the difference in price for the four favorites with a complete list of every Yes/No playoff price on the 27 teams listed below, including their chance of making the college football playoff.
