CFP Title, Heisman, And Super Bowl Odds After Week 5/6
College Football Playoff Title Odds:
Increases:
Alabama -125 —–> -200: I think you’d have to be crazy to have your money tied up for 3 months for a -200 payout, but hey Alabama does look unbeatable.
Notre Dame 15/1 —> +950: After passing the Enter Sandman test at Virginia Tech, Notre Dame looks to be a serious CFP contender.
Texas 85/1 —-> 40/1: Although the victory against Oklahoma was big, but Texas could win out and not make the playoff. That loss to Maryland will continue to haunt them
Decreases:
Clemson & Ohio State +550 —> +750: This has more to do with Alabama being so good. Taking either of these two has serious value. Alabama still has to play somebody in the CFP championship and they aren’t going to be -500 favorites.
Increases:
LA Chargers 28/1 —> 20/1: After starting the season 1-2, the Chargers are now 3-2, looking like they’ll be in the Wild Card race.
Browns 100/1 —> 66/1: The Browns could easily be 5-0. Is it crazy to say that betting them 66/1 isn’t awful value?!
Decreases:
Packers 18/1 —> 28/1: Not what you want to see as a Packers fan.
Falcons 40/1—> 66/1: The Falcons move to 1-4. Not a great start for the Atlanta team that started the season around 20/1 to win the Super Bowl.
This is a race between Tua and Dwayne Haskins. If Will Grier gets hot I guess he’ll have a say but West Virginia will have to be in the playoff for that to happen.
NFL MVP:
(From October 4th)
This is Mahomes award to lose. Jared Goff is in striking distance. So is Drew Brees, who will break the passing record and throw for his 500th passing TD in the same year.
