2014 College Football Playoff odds: FSU, Alabama top betting favorites

Oregon and Ohio State join the Seminoles and the Tide as Bovada’s top Playoff contenders.

Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

A week after 5Dimes released its win total odds, Bovada has released its odds for a few teams to make the College Football Playoff. And if Vegas is correct, the Playoff will be made up of Florida State, Alabama, Oregon and Ohio State in its inaugural year. Oklahoma, Auburn, LSU, UCLA and Michigan State round out the list.

Team Will they make the Playoff? Will they not make the Playoff?
Florida State -350 (2/7) +225 (9/4)
Alabama +125 (5/4) -160 (5/8)
Oregon EVEN (1/1) -140 (5/7)
Ohio State EVEN (1/1) -140 (5/7)
Oklahoma +175 (7/4) -260 (5/13)
Auburn +175 (7/4) -260 (5/13)
LSU +225 (9/4) -350 (2/7)
UCLA +240 (12/5) -380 (5/19)
Michigan State +225 (9/4) -350 (2/7)

Those are very high odds for Florida State, which returns Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jameis Winston after winning last year’s national title. At -350, there’s little value to bet on the Seminoles, who are a trendy pick to win repeat as national champions.
