Bovada has some fresh odds for who they think will make it to the fourth installment of the College Football Playoff. Alabama, last season’s runner up, is leading the pack, while past CFP participants Florida State and Ohio State aren’t too far behind. USC, who made it to the Rose Bowl last season but never a CFP, has the third best odds of making it to the semifinals, behind Alabama and Florida State.
If we use the odds as a way of seeding the teams, it appears the semifinal contests would be Alabama-Ohio State in the Sugar Bowl, and Florida State-USC in the Rose Bowl.
