Odds To Win National Championship 2020
Odds on every FBS team to win the College Football National Championship for the 2020-21 season with my best value bets to make and take down the playoff.
With the sports world hungry to bet on just about anything, let’s look at some 2020 college football futures. Last year’s runner up, the Clemson Tigers, are the odds-on favorite to win the 2020 National Championship. You may have heard of their quarterback and future #1 pick in the NFL draft, Trevor Lawrence. 2020 National Championship and Heisman Odds Ahead Of Conference Championship Games Steve Dominey December 15, 2020 BetOnline lists Alabama as -150 favorites to win the National Championship Notre Dame (+900) likely secured a spot in the CFP semifinal with Florida’s surprise loss to LSU in Week 15.
In this case, odds are up for the 2020-21 College Football National Champion. Even though it will be for the 2020 season, the 2021 College Football Playoff National Championship will be played at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL, which is the site of Super Bowl LIV. While the usual suspects — Clemson, Ohio State, Alabama and Georgia — remain the top four in best odds to win college football’s national title, Michigan moved up from 13th to ninth, tied with Penn State with +5000 odds. The Wolverines are behind the aforementioned four, LSU, Florida, Notre Dame and Oklahoma in the betting odds.
While there’s been nothing to indicate Michigan football is that much more of a College Football Playoff contender than in March, that doesn’t mean the sports books haven’t increased their confidence in the Wolverines.
In March, the national championship odds for the Wolverines opened at +5000, putting the maize and blue at No. 13 overall. However, Michigan moved up in August according to BetMGM, now sitting at even odds with another nouveau pick out of the Big Ten.

The Wolverines are behind the aforementioned four, LSU, Florida, Notre Dame and Oklahoma in the betting odds.
The betting site, naturally, hasn’t updated its game-by-game odds, given the schedule is entirely in flux. The Big Ten announced last month it would move to a conference-only schedule in 2020. However, the now-canceled contest at Washington still appears on the site. Had that game taken place, BetMGM would have had Michigan as 2.5-point favorites.

How to Bet on College Football Futures
American Football is the most popular game among bettors in the United States and a large portion of that interest comes from College Football. Analyzing the Future Odds and predicting which school will become the champion every season continues to receive attention at the betting counter. Check out our online sportsbook directory to find the best and most secure places to make college football bets, as well as exclusive sportsbook offers.
College Football Futures can be bet on throughout the 12-month calendar year but to any betting market, we always have peaks and valleys for wagers. After each season ends in early January, oddsmakers send out their opening Future Odds for the following season in the second or third week of the first month. The main market is for the NCAA Division 1 Football Bowl Subdivision or more widely known as the FBS. There are over 125 teams that are divided into 10 conferences, plus there is a group of independent schools that stand alone with no affiliation.
A handful of sportsbooks will set College Football Futures on every school that are eligible to win the championship but many keep the list at 50 teams, since some lower-tier teams just don’t have a competitive chance. The Future Odds market doesn’t receive as much attention in the spring but an increase of bets can often be placed in the summer when the student athletes report back for the fall semester. Coaching changes, suspensions, injuries and depth charts always affect the College Football Futures betting market.
2022 College Football National Championship Odds to Win
There are several good bets to win the NCAA football playoffs in 2022.

College Football Championship Game Odds
The Future Odds on the College Football Championship Game receive plenty of attention, especially when the season begins. Unlike other popular American sports, College Football doesn’t have an automatic qualifying system for its postseason. At the end of the regular season, only four teams will have a chance to win the College Football Championship Game. The top four teams that are selected by a committee, subjectively, will meet in two semifinal matchups before the final.
The Future Odds on those four schools for the College Football Championship Game are available earlier in the year and as the regular season progresses, you’ll start to see the oddsmakers adjust their betting odds on who they believe will be playing in the championship. In the first or second week of the December, bettors will only have four schools to choose from and the Championship Game Odds don’t offer as much value compared to the initial opening numbers posted in January at the sportsbooks.
How do I bet on the College Football Championship Game?
- Where to Bet:
The Future Odds wager is very simple for the College Football Championship Game. Many bettors identify it as an “Odds to Win” bet or future wager. Like all other wagers, bettors must correctly select a team to win an event that takes place a later time – in this case the College Football Championship.
The money wagered will be tied up until there is an outcome and bettors will receive fixed odds when they place the wager. For college football, the most valuable odds and big payout tickets are scooped up before the season begins when a school is quietly going unnoticed.
To figure out how you win when betting on the College Football Championship Game, it’s just simple math. You take the odds and multiply by the amount wagered.
Ex. Ohio State Buckeyes (3/1) to win the National Championship.
The Buckeyes are listed as an 3/1 betting choice to win the National Championship. If you wager $100 on Ohio State to win it all and they capture the championship, then you would win $300 (3 ÷ 1 x 100). You would collect $400, which includes your win and stake ($100) or initial amount that you used to bet on the Future Odds ticket.

Bettors preferring to use American Odds would see Ohio State listed at +300 on their Future Odds market while the Decimal version on the Buckeyes would be 4.00.
