Week 10 was another chaotic win. Notre Dame knocked off No. 1 Miami while Georgia demolished Ole Miss by 35 points. Utah remains undefeated after taking down BYU 28-20, and Alabama had a convincing win over LSU, dropping the Tigers to 3-3 in the conference. Kentucky also suffered its second loss, potentially taking it out of the playoff picture.
With Utah at 9-0, a Big 12 team has finally entered the top eight title contenders. However, they are still considered longshots, with multiple bubble teams, including LSU, having better odds to win the National Championship.
Here is where the title contenders stand after 10 weeks, courtesy of FanDuel.
Georgia (+250)
After their dominant 42-7 win over Ole Miss, it is hard to believe any team in college football is better
than Georgia right now. They have a powerful offense and elite defense, making them a well-rounded team capable of winning it all.
Notre Dame (+390)
Their win against Miami was impressive, but I still can't help wondering how good this Notre Dame team really is. They defeated the Hurricanes without their star receiver, Malachi Toney. Toney's presence would have made a huge difference, so that does detract from the win a bit.
Alabama (+650)
Alabama has back-to-back losses, but they have clearly moved on after their 31-13 win over LSU. With Keelon Russell playing this well, this team can truly contend for a National Championship.
Miami (+800)
The ACC suffered a blow when Malachi Toney suffered a high ankle sprain. Miami's offense put up a good fight against Notre Dame, but it still was not enough for the win. The offense isn't as explosive without its star receiver, and the defense was always an issue. So it is hard to see the Hurricanes win the National Championship without Toney coming back.
Indiana (+900)
Based on their offense this season, I do not believe Indiana can win it all. Really, I do not want to see them in the playoffs because they are not a fun team to watch. Some of college football's bubble teams would be more enjoyable to watch than the Hoosiers.
Texas (+1100)
I have a hard time trusting Arch Manning. Sometimes he is really good, but sometimes he costs the Longhorns games. This defense is elite, so they can sometimes compensate for Manning's inconsistency. They will be an interesting team to watch in the playoffs.
LSU (+1700)
After their loss to Alabama, I question whether the Tigers will even make the playoffs. With three conference losses, they won't be in the SEC Championship game. As an at-large team, they face teams with better records and stronger resumes. LSU is not winning it all this season.
Utah (+2200)
Utah and UCLA are the only undefeated teams in the Power Four, but they aren't seen as national championship contenders. The Utes are playing like a well-rounded team that can compete with anyone. They're also the Big 12's best chance to win it all.
