ESPN releases College Football Playoff predictor odds for 2019


ESPN released its first edition of the ‘Playoff Predictor’ Wednesday with four SEC teams cracking the Top 10 and nine in the Top 25.

The best odds to make the playoff and win the national championship belong to none other than Clemson and Alabama, but the Bulldogs are not too far behind at No. 4.

According to ESPN’s forecast model, we are destined to see Clemson-Alabama part five in next year’s championship game.

However, these numbers mean absolutely nothing towards the actual season of course.

Here is how the complete Top 10 played out.

  1. Clemson
  2. Alabama
  3. Michigan
  4. Georgia
  5. Oklahoma
  6. LSU
  7. Notre Dame
  8. Oregon
  9. Florida
  10. Penn State

The complete Top 25 can be found here.

Who is the most overrated on the list? Who is the most underrated?

At this point in time, we’d have to say Michigan is a bit high and the Buckeyes are rather low. Putting Tennessee in the Top 20 coming off another sub .500 season is puzzling to us as well, though ‘Vol Twitter’ likely disagrees.

Let us know what you think in the polls below.
