2025 CFP Championship odds: Who will win next year’s 12-team tournament?

CHAMPIONSHIP

Football

The 2024 college football season is over after Ohio State defeated Notre Dame in the CFP final, 34-23.

Now, it’s time to look ahead to next year. Let’s take a look ahead at the national title odds for the 2025 College Football Playoff at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Jan. 21.

CFP Championship Winner 2025-26

Ohio State: +450 (bet $10 to win $55 total)
Texas: +500 (bet $10 to win $60 total)
Georgia: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total)
Oregon: +750 (bet $10 to win $85 total)
Penn State: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)
Alabama: +1200 (bet $10 to win $130 total)
Notre Dame: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)
Tennessee: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)
LSU: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)
Clemson: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)

Seeing any familiar programs?

Much like most years, the big dogs will enter next season favored to win it all, including Ohio State, which will look to defend its title in a year’s time.

But just behind Ohio State at the top of the oddsboard are Texas, Georgia and Oregon, three CFP teams from this season.

The Ducks entered the 12-team tournament as the top-seed after earning a regular-season win over the Buckeyes. However, they were trounced by OSU 41-21 in this year’s quarterfinals. 

Similarly, the Longhorns came up short against Ohio State, losing 28-14 in the semifinals. 

Georgia fell at the hands of this season’s other finalist, Notre Dame, losing 23-10 in the quarterfinals. 

Speaking of the Irish, they open at seventh on the oddsboard, after qualifying for this year’s title game but coming up short.

The only two teams in the top 10 on the oddsboard that did not make it to the 12-team field this season are Alabama and LSU. Other CFP participants from this season are further down the national title oddsboard for next season, including SMU at +8000, Arizona State at +9000, Indiana at +15000 and Boise State at +20000.
