Fresh off the program’s first national title since 2014, Ohio State has been installed as the favorite to repeat as the College Football Playoff champions next season.

The Buckeyes defeated Notre Dame 34-23 on Monday night and are already the +450 favorites at DraftKings to repeat the feat.

Texas, which lost to Ohio State in this season’s semifinals, has the second shortest odds at +500, followed by Georgia at +550 and Oregon at +750. Of note is that each of the top four early favorites will be starting new quarterbacks in 2025.

The top six spots are all filled with Big 10 and SEC programs, including Penn State and returning quarterback Drew Allar at +900 for fifth on the list. Alabama is sixth at +1200. Independent Notre Dame has been installed with the seventh-shortest odds at +1600.

FanDuel opened with the same top five: Ohio State (+450), Texas (+650), Oregon (+650), Georgia (+700) and Penn State (+850).

Clemson has the shortest odds among ACC schools at DraftKings at +2000 ahead of Miami at +2500. Kansas State and Arizona State lead the way for the Big 12, albeit at longshot odds with both at +9000.

The first non-Power 4/independent team on the list is the Mountain West’s Boise State. The Broncos have been installed at +20000 following their run to this year’s quarterfinals.

Deion Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes have to replace Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter and quarterback Shedeur Sanders. The Buffs have been installed with +10000 odds — the same as North Carolina with new coach Bill Belichick.
