The calendar is close to turning to August, and college football fans can already smell the start of the new campaign. College football has seen dramatic changes over the last few years, including the ramping up of the transfer portal, NIL, and the transition to a 12-team College Football Playoff.
With 12 teams playing for the grand prize at the end of the year, the regular season will feel much different. An early season loss is no longer a death sentence to a program's hopes of bringing home a "natty." Similar to the NFL playoffs, a team that loses a game or two early in the season but gets hot late in the year could ultimately be the team that wins it all.
In this article, we'll list the top 21 teams in terms of odds to make the first 12-team CFP. The lines are via DraftKings Sportsbook, and as always, are subject to change. Who will make the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff? Let's dive into the list.
