    I understood that with  OSU's win vs.  FMU and vs. Wisconsin, they took over that top spot.  (as you can tell from the copy you pasted....it talks about how FMU hopes to "end their struggles" vs. Ohio State. 

    So, you data is kind of old. 

    That's from NCAA. Org.  I think they just updated the totals and percentages but the write-ups might be preseason.

    During the Wisconsin/Bucks game..Do you remember seeing a stat graphic overall rating the 4 final teams by strengh of schedule & other built in stats? Bucks were rated 1st with like a 540'ish score..2)LSU ? 3)Clemson ?...A projected 4th team had like 2-3 options of teams?

      Ohio State had the record and numbers to deserve a #1 seed, maybe the early 7-21 score or something like that got them bumped to a #2 seed.

      Well it might be a classic game and we get to sit back and watch it in primetime !

        I think that is it.  As I said,  Wisconsin was a far tougher task than Georgia was for LSU, and whomever Clemson played, who they rolled. Wisc. is much better than  GA imo.

          Wisconsin is a good team,  6 Oregon vs 8 Wisconsin is going to be a good game.

          13 Alabama vs 14 Michigan should be interesting too.

          GO BIG TEN, we'll see who's better.

            If ALABAMA plays all it’s good players. Meatchicken will lose by 30+

              Something seems off on this game, sure Alabama has lost their starting quarterback a big deal to any team probably cost them a final four spot  -but-  the current line is ALA -7, based on previous power rankings (which are used as rough guides to set lines, I will also try to get an up to date one) it should be more like ALA -13 but we'll see.

              The game is on New Year's Day so we'll see where that goes.  Also bowl games have their surprises we'll see how fired up Michigan is in this one.

                Don't think so.  I think Michigan has every bit of a chance to beat Alabama.   Bama may be the better team, but FMU can play.

                      Well a little movement in the top teams betting odds of winning the National Championship on December 19, 2019.

                      ODDS TO WIN 2019-20 COLLEGE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME (1/6/20)
                      Team Odds
                      LSU Tigers 7/5
                      Clemson Tigers 2/1
                      Ohio State Buckeyes 3/1
                      Oklahoma Sooners 16/1

                      How do I bet on the College Football Championship Game?

                      The Future Odds wager is very simple for the College Football Championship Game. Many bettors identify it as an “Odds to Win” bet or future wager. Like all other wagers, bettors must correctly select a team to win an event that takes place a later time – in this case the College Football Championship.

                      The money wagered will be tied up until there is an outcome and bettors will receive fixed odds when they place the wager. For college football, the most valuable odds and big payout tickets are scooped up before the season begins when a school is quietly going unnoticed.

                      To figure out how you win when betting on the College Football Championship Game, it’s just simple math. You take the odds and multiply by the amount wagered.

                      Ex. Ohio State Buckeyes (4/1) to win the National Championship.

                      The Buckeyes are listed as an 4/1 betting choice to win the National Championship. If you wager $100 on Ohio State to win it all and they capture the championship, then you would win $400 (4 ÷ 1 x 100). You would collect $500, which includes your win and stake ($100) or initial amount that you used to bet on the Future Odds ticket.

                      Bettors preferring to use American Odds would see Ohio State listed at +400 on their Future Odds market while the Decimal version on the Buckeyes would be 5.00

                            A couple of good Friday night games going on:

                            USC/IOWA 7-7 early and OSU/TAM 14-14 3rd quarter.  Oh and the BIG TEN is 1-0.

                            ........and as I typed that IOWA 14-7.

                              Right now Friday night both the OHIO STATE football and basketball (11-1) teams are #2 in the USA!

                              No other BIG TEN hoops team in the top 10.  Michigan is #11.

                                  BUCKEYES should be way ahead, another FG 16-0.

                                    Oh BTW the LSU game o/u was 75 and went way over.

                                    This game it's 62.5 and is looking under.

                                      LSU opened a 6 point favorite now a 5.5 point favorite versus Clemson.

                                          LSU vs OHIO STATE would have been a better marquee matchup, "the Ohio kid comes home to play his former team ....in La.".

                                          Oh so close......
