Three NCAAF Teams Have Negative Odds To Make The CFP

Tomorrow we are blessed with three top-25 matchups that all have massive implications for the College Football Playoffs 📚 (4 minute read)

Happy Friday ETO team — Shohei Ohtani won unanimous MVP in the AL, check out how dominant his season was. Bryce Harper brought home NL MVP in a close race ⚾️. Let’s talk College Football 👇 

The Final Stretch

Entering one of the final weeks of the College Football season, only a few teams have better than even odds of making it into the four-team playoff 👇

  • No. 1 Georgia: -3000

  • No. 5 Ohio State: -290

  • No. 2 Alabama: -118

There’s a dog fight for the fourth and final spot, and five teams have a path to grab it if they can win out 💰

  • No. 12 Oklahoma: +225

  • No. 4 Oregon: +225

  • No. 8 Michigan: +250

  • No. 3 Cincinnati: +320

  • No. 7 Michigan State: +1340

We’re keeping an eye on a few huge matchups tomorrow that will certainly weed out a few pretenders 👇

Game of the Day

Tomorrow, The Ohio State University will host their rival’s rival for a massively important battle between two top-10 teams from the Big Ten East

  • Time: Saturday, November 20, 12:00 PM EST

  • Record: Both teams are 9-1

  • Spread: OSU -19.5

  • Moneyline: OSU -1400, MSU +760

  • Over/Under: 68.5

With a loss, either team is almost definitely eliminated from a playoff spot, as the winner will slide into an excellent position to represent the Big Ten

This game could be even bigger for MSU Head Coach Mel Tucker, as the university is reportedly preparing to offer him a 10-year, $95 million contract extension. A win against the Buckeyes would almost lock that up, as Ohio State has dominated the conference for 10+ years

A Battle Down South

Later in the afternoon, College Football’s most dominant team in recent memory takes on a conference foe and looks to avoid a second SEC loss. Bama has only lost two games in a season twice since 2014

  • Time: Saturday, November 20, 3:30 PM EST

  • Record: Alabama 9-1, Arkansas 7-3

  • Spread: Alabama -21.5

  • Moneyline: Alabama -1600, Arkansas +820

  • Over/Under: 58.5

In Week 6, Bama received their lone loss of the season, when they fell to Texas A&M 41-38. In the four games since then, they’ve only allowed 50 totals points ✊

  • Destroyed Mississippi State, 49-9, on the road

  • Beat Tennessee 52-24

  • Won a close game vs rival LSU, 20-14

  • Killed New Mexico State last week, 59-3

The Road-Dogs

Lastly, in their final road game of the season, Oregon looks for their sixth-straight in what would cap off a Pac-12-winning season

  • Time: Saturday, November 20, 7:30 PM EST

  • Record: Oregon 9-1, Utah 7-3

  • Spread: Utah -3.5

  • Moneyline: Oregon +138, Utah -170

  • Over/Under: 59.5

Despite being favored at home, Utah lost both its games against ranked opponents (BYU and San Diego St.) and dropped another to Oregon State. Considering Utah’s past performances against superior opponents, Oregon has a good chance of winning, and a great chance of covering on the road

  • Ohio State -19 vs MSU: -110
