Washington Huskies (+800)
Odds Shift After Championship Week: +2000 to +800 - CFB Playoff Semifinal Opponent: vs. Texas (4.5-point underdog) - After taking down Oregon twice this year, the Huskies still aren't getting a lot of respect in the national championship market. Washington is in a clear tier behind the top three in the College Football Playoff, and we're not exactly sold on why. All this team has done this season is win football games, and when Kalen DeBoer's squad is counted out, they find a way to elevate their game and perform at a higher level. There's definite value in their +800 price to win the national title.
College Football Playoff is Set
The College Football Playoff is set with the final four teams. SportsGrid looks at their current national championship odds heading into their semifinals.
Michigan Wolverines (+175)
Odds Shift After Championship Week: +185 to +175 - CFB Playoff Semifinal Opponent: vs. Alabama (1.5-point favorite) - The Wolverines enter the College Football Playoff as the top seed and favorite. Michigan has made back-to-back appearances in the Playoff, dropping their semifinal games to Georgia and TCU, respectively. Is this the year the Wolverines get over the hump? That certainly won't be an easy task against a Nick Saban-coached squad that has a month to prepare. Still, the Wolverines are listed as a slight favorite, but how much will this number move over the next month? If you like Michigan to advance, this is a strong number.
Alabama Crimson Tide (+210)
Odds Shift After Championship Week: +1000 to +210 - CFB Playoff Semifinal Opponent: vs. Michigan (1.5-point underdog) - In a year where many thought the Alabama Crimson Tide would be absent from the College Football Playoff for the second year in a row, Nick Saban's program found a way. The Crimson Tide will take on the Michigan Wolverines in the semifinals, and they're currently listed as a 1.5-point underdog. With a lot of time to prepare, it's hard to count out this group as slight underdogs. With how things played out against Auburn and then Georgia in the SEC Championship, this feels like a potential team of destiny.
Texas Longhorns (+260)
Odds Shift After Championship Week: +900 to +260 - CFB Playoff Semifinal Opponent: vs. Washington (4.5-point favorite) - The Texas Longhorns have been a problem all year long, and the only blemish on their resume is a loss to Oklahoma. This team can go toe-to-toe with anyone in the trenches, and there aren't a lot of flaws to be found. The Longhorns are listed as a 4.5-point favorite against the Washington Huskies while also boasting +260 odds to capture the national title. Can Steve Sarkisian lead his group to the promised lands?
