Although only one national champion can be crowned, plenty of college football teams will be genuine contenders in the chase for a title.
Plus, beginning in the 2024 season, the College Football Playoff will expand to a 12-team tournament. Never before has there been as much access to a potential title in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
At the same time, though, several well-respected preseason teams are destined to fall considerably short of the CFP.
The trick, as always, is separating them from the contenders.
According to DraftKings, 15 teams hold +4000 odds or shorter to win the 2024 season's national championship.
