Four-Team College Football Playoff Odds Tracker
- Sportsbooks have posted odds on the best teams in the NCAA earning a spot in the four-team playoff
- Alabama and Clemson are the only teams shorter than even money
- The Tide have never missed the College Football Playoff in its five-year history
Betting on the NCAAF National Championship futures has become stale thanks to the dominance of Alabama and Clemson. Nick Saban’s Tide and Dabo Swinney’s Tigers have capture the last four national titles and met in the three of the last four championship games.
Thankfully, there’s another futures bet available these days, one which opens up real opportunities for secondary contenders: odds to make the four-team College Football Playoff.
Odds to Make 2020 College Football Playoff
| 2020 CFP Contenders at MyBookie (Mar. 11) | Yes | No | Previous CFP Appearances |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alabama | -250 | +195 | 5 (2015-2019) |
| Clemson | -250 | +195 | 4 (2016-2019) |

NB: the year of the title game is used to denote that season’s four-team CFP, even though the semifinals are often played prior to New Year’s Day. Hence, next season’s playoff will be the “2020 CFP.“
Understandably, Alabama and Clemson are huge chalk to reach the four-team playoff next year.
Alabama has literally never missed out in the five-year history of the playoff.
Clemson has made it four straight years, returns 2019 Heisman Trophy-favorite Trevor Lawrence who just led the team to a national title as a freshman, and plays in the comparatively weak ACC.
But, even with two berths reserved for Bama and Clemson, there are still two whole spots available!
As the season progresses, expect to see more teams pop up in the odds-list. The table above will be updated accordingly when they do.
