Holy balls. So just betting on FSU to make it pays 16 to 1 if they make it? Am I reading that right?

This is odds to win the national title. Not to get into the playoff. Everyone knows Florida State can’t hang with these teams and win 2 straight.

 

[ZombieKissinger]

It’s actually kind of interesting. Question of how much Alabama is weighted in the odds based on who Vegas thinks will get in vs how bad they think FSU is compared to the rest. Doesn’t necessarily indicate the market thinks Bama is in if they think FSU is bad enough

That’s a completely different situation then. If Bama was cobsidered 100% in, they’d have far better odds of winning it than even Michigan.

Still, odds on Bama are outstanding. If they get in, they are the favorites.

The latest:



Not much change, but FSU / Bama are both down slightly more, UGA up slightly.

My interpretation is that oddsmakers view Texas as being in, and it being 50/50 between Bama and FSU for the last spot.

I also couldn’t imagine making those bets on Michigan at +110 or Texas at +330 without knowing the whole field. Really dicey.

I don't know if they'll be the actual favorites, but they would be my pick. Agree, those odds are great value.

Here’s some more odds.

CFB Combo of Michigan, Washington, FSU & Texas is -190. That’s the most likely outcome based on FamDuel. Next closest combo is UM, UW, Bama & FSU at +270.

Single team odds to make it:

-480 FSU
-375 Texas
+134 Alabama
+1600 UGA

A lot of $ to be made if you think the SEC deserves a team…

Related to the discussion of who should be in, everyone knows Alabama and/or Georgia would be favorites against the entire field. That seems significant if you’re looking for the four best teams.

Per FanDuel:

+110 - Michigan
+350 - Texas
+450 - Washington
+550 - Alabama

+1600 - Florida State

+5500 - Georgia

Not much doubt who that market thinks is in.

I think putting money on the other 3 is safe money. The Big10 is not as good as everyone is making them out to be. Ohio State and Michigan are good teams that’s reputation is inflated in a conference full of teams that can’t ******* score.

I think FSU may have similar odds even if they are in.

I think if FSU is in, they have to be the 3-seed. If committee decides they care a lot about undefeated records, you can’t just have Texas at #3, FSU at #4, Bama at #5, or same order but with with switched Texas/Bama.

If either Texas or Bama is moved ahead of FSU for that #3 slot, you have to put them both in and FSU out. So the FSU decision really is going to drive everything.

This includes odds to make the playoff and odds of winning. Interesting dynamic

Betting on the committee decision (after all games have been played) is wild lol

damn bama at +550 is easy money

That's certainly usually the case, but I'm not so sure this year. Michigan is at the top of most every significant data driven poll out there.

I think if the field was released and you knew Bama was in, you’d see Bama and Michigan both at +150 or something like that. If you knew Bama was out, probably see something like Mich +100.

For the house if they miss the playoffs. That's why they're +550

Those who took the odds on Bama are in the money already!

Bama wins it all. Bet the house.
