2025 College Football Playoff Odds: Field Favored Over Top 5 Seeds

One could look at the College Football Playoff as the Big Ten's best vs. everybody. 

The top seed in the field belongs to Indiana, the second seed belongs to Ohio State and the fifth seed belongs to Oregon. That's three teams in the top five. 

Not too shabby. 

Joining those three Big Ten squads in the top five are No. 3 Georgia (SEC) and No. 4 Texas Tech (Big 12). 

So, how do the top five stack up against the rest of the field? Let's check out the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Dec. 17.
