There are still a few weeks to wait before we get to the Cotton Bowl and the Orange Bowl, the games that will serve as the college football playoff semi-finals. There are arguments to be made for each of the 4 teams still in the hunt for a National Championship, but we are going to try and break them down into the latest NCAA Championship Odds with the favorite, smart pick and longshot categories. Clemson and Alabama are far and away the favorites here, which is no real surprise given their playoff pedigree, while Oklahoma and Notre Dame are serious longshots. Let’s take a closer look.
Trevor Lawrence took over as the starter and the Tigers have not really looked back since then. Lawrence is the real deal, but he is backed up by a defensive unit that is arguably the best that college football has to offer. The Tigers are a fantastically balanced team and have also beaten the Crimson Tide in playoffs past, which they did the year they won it all.
