SEC Looking Good to Get 2 Teams Into Playoff

BetOnline recently posted updated odds on teams to make/miss the 4-team playoff. Here’s a look at how they’ve changed since the beginning of the season:

Alabama is at -1000 to make the playoff, and they look to be assured of a spot even if they lose a regular season game. UGA is at -150 but has a very tough game at Auburn this weekend, as well as tricky matchups with Kentucky and Georgia Tech to finish the season, and a potential SEC title game.

5Dimes posted a prop bet on whether the SEC would get multiple teams in the playoff:

Will a Big Ten team make the NCAAF Playoff?

Yes +150
No -190

Will the SEC get 2 or more teams in the Playoff?

Yes -160
No +120

Wisconsin (+175) now has the best odds to reach the playoff after Ohio State and Penn State both lost last weekend.

Clemson has the third-best odds to make the playoff but would likely need to win the ACC title game to do so. A potential matchup against Miami FL would make for huge drama at the end of the season, especially if the Hurricanes can run the table– Miami has the sixth-best playoff odds at +260. However, Notre Dame (+175) or Miami could ultimately be eliminated this weekend as they face off against one another on Saturday night.

Will a 2-loss team somehow make the Playoff? If you think so, you can get +280 odds. If you don’t think there’s any chance of that happening, you can bet the ‘No’ at -400.
