It's been eight years since oddsmakers have anointed a team other than Alabama or Clemson as the preseason favorite. That streak is over, as Georgia is firmly the consensus betting favorite to win the College Football Playoff at sportsbooks around the nation.

The Bulldogs, vying for a third consecutive national championship, enter the season with some of the shortest title odds in over two decades.

On Thursday, Georgia was +240 to win the College Football Playoff at Caesars Sportsbook. Alabama is next at +550, followed by Ohio State (+800) and Michigan (+850).

Alabama had been the preseason favorite or co-favorite with Clemson in seven of the past eight seasons. But now it's Georgia's turn.
