Updated College Football Championship Betting Odds – November 8th Edition

Mississippi St. Host Alabama as College Football Week 11 Odds Underdog

Alabama Crimson Tide

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 2/3
The Crimson Tide are looking like they’re going to be very difficult to beat once again with a defense that ranks first in points allowed (9.8 ppg) and an offense that is averaging a stellar 40.9 points per game.

Georgia Bulldogs

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 5/1
The second-ranked Bulldogs look like an identical version of Alabama with a now, super powerful defense that ranks third in points allowed 911.7 ppg) and a powerful rushing attack that ranks eighth (279.3 YPG).

Clemson Tigers

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 7/1
The Tigers are ranked eighth in points allowed (15.3 ppg), so they’re still very, very good on that side of the ball. However, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Quarterback Kelly Bryant is certainly no Deshaun Watson, which is why I don’t see it happening for the fourth-ranked Tigers this season.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 10/1
Speaking of quarterbacks, Notre Dame’s Brandon Wimbush is an absolute superstar. The dual-threat signal-caller has been absolutely phenomenal this season in passing for 11 touchdowns with just two interceptions while rushing for 639 yards with a whopping 13 scores on the ground. Combine that with a defense that is giving up just 18.4 points per game (17th) and it’s easy to see why the third-ranked Fighting Irish are looking like a championship contender.

Ohio State Buckeyes

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 12/1
Seriously? The 13th-ranked Buckeyes have been embarrassed twice this season and just gave up an insane 55 points in their Week 10 loss to Iowa. Stick a fork in Urban Meyer’s team, they’re done!

Oklahoma Sooners

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 12/1
Is Baker Mayfield the best quarterback in all college football? As the legendary Marv Albert is fond of saying…Yes! If you didn’t know, Mayfield has thrown a mind-boggling 4 touchdown passes and just 20 interceptions over his last two-plus seasons! The fifth-ranked Sooners will have a shot if they can run the table from here on out!

Wisconsin Badgers

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 16/1
I love the eighth-ranked Badgers even though many fans and votes want to hate them for their pretty weak schedule this season. I know one thing, they’re better than Ohio State. Ha! The Badgers College Football Championship Odds are not good.

Miami Hurricanes

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 20/1
The U is back baby! Seriously, seventh-ranked Miami is ranked 12th in points allowed (17.6 ppg) and a respectable 44thh in scoring (31.5 ppg). Cornerback Michael Jackson is a beast, plus I swear he can moonwalk!

Washington Huskies

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 28/1
Go ahead and hate on the ninth-ranked Huskies if you want, but I’m not after doing so all last season. The Huskies have one of the best coaches in all college football plus two Heisman Trophy caliber stars in Jake Browning and Myles Gaskin.

TCU Horned Frogs

College Football Championship Betting Odds: 33/1 The sixth-ranked Horned Frogs have a phenomenal defense that ranks sixth in points allowed (13.9 ppg) and all they need if for quarterback Kenny Hill to keep it together to have a shot!

Auburn Tigers

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 33/1
Mmm…some people are really high on the 10th-ranked Tigers, but I’m not one of them. While Auburn ranks ninth in points allowed (16.9 ppg) and a very impressive 20th in scoring (36.9 ppg), there’s just something about quarterback Jarrett Stidham that bothers me!

Oklahoma State Cowboys

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 80/1
Two losses have doomed the 15th-ranked Cowboys’ playoff hopes, even though I love quarterback Mason Rudolph and believe he could start for about 10 NFL teams – right now!

Penn State Nittany Lions

  • College Football Championship Betting Odds: 100/1
Two losses have also doomed my beloved 14th-ranked Penn State – although I swear that running back Saquon Barkley is the best all-around player in college football!
