Going into another primetime showdown, the Ohio State Buckeyes have the third best odds to win the national championship, according to Bovada. The online sportsbook has the Scarlet and Gray sitting at 15-to-2 odds to win the College Football Playoff National Championship. Throughout the week, those odds have stayed the same.
The same can’t be said for the team with the best odds, the Alabama Crimson Tide. Entering Monday, Nick Saban’s squad had 5-to-4 odds to win the title, however, as of Thursday evening, those odds went longer to 6-to-5. While the runner-ups to the title last season saw their odds get a tad longer, they’ve been hovering around the same area code.
