Ohio State, Michigan Among Favorites To Win National Title

The odds for the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship have seen some significant movement over the last month in the wake of National Signing Day.

The latest odds, courtesy of Bovada, show Ohio State as the favorite to win the title this coming season with the Buckeyes moving from 12-1 in January to 6-1. Alabama did not see a change and holds steady at 7-1 despite signing the nation's No. 1 class for the sixth year in a row.

Clemson has also not seen a change in odds, as the Tigers remain at 15-2, but they are joined by Michigan, previously 12-1, after the Wolverines had a big Signing Day.

LSU, which signed a terrific recruiting class, did not see a change in title odds and stays at 14-1, along with Oklahoma.

The biggest move up of any team in the top 10 was by Tennessee, which joins LSU and Oklahoma at 14-1, jumping up from 22-1 when first installed in January. The Vols put together an excellent signing day class and are the favorites to make the SEC Championship Game out of the SEC East despite not advancing there since 2007.

The biggest move up in the latest title odds is by Auburn, which jumps from 50-1 to 33-1 following a top-15 class brought in on National Signing Day.

The defending national title winner, Alabama, has 7-1 odds to repeat.
