USC still has a chance at College Football Playoff, oddsmakers say
The College Football Playoff title is not out of USC’s reach just yet, oddsmakers say.
After a 38-34 loss to Arizona State that dropped the Trojans’ record to 3-2, USC’s odds of winning the CFP championship are listed at 100-1, according to the betting website Bovada.
USC was at 33-1 after its Sept. 27 victory over Oregon State.
The Trojans play 10th-ranked Arizona on Saturday at Tucson.
The undefeated Wildcats’ odds of winning the playoff improved from 200-1 to 50-1 after they upset Oregon, 31-24, at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Ore.
Oregon is listed at 22-1, UCLA 25-1.
Stanford was listed at 40-1 before a 17-14 defeat at Notre Dame dropped the Cardinal off the board.
