The third College Football Playoff bracket was revealed on Tuesday, and based on the odds, the playoff picture is becoming much clearer.
Oregon‘s odds to make the CFP shortened to -20000 from -6000 after keeping the No. 1 ranking for the third week.
The 11-0 Ducks’ most recent win was their 16-13 victory over Wisconsin in Week 12.
Second on the board is Ohio State.
The Buckeyes moved from -3000 after defeating Northwestern 31-7.
The Playoff is officially expanding to 12 teams this year, meaning an early-season loss or midseason conference loss might not torpedo a program’s chances of competing for a national title, like in years past.
That’s an important note, considering a few big-name programs have already suffered defeats.
Let’s check out the odds to make the 12-team Playoff at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Nov. 20.
