Bet 2011 BCS National Championship Odds
Oddsmakers from online sports book Sportsbook.com have made Alabama a 7/2 favorite to win the 2011 BCS National Championship. The Ohio State Buckeyes have the next best odds at 13/2.
Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide will return quarterback Greg McElroy and Heisman winner Mark Ingram next season. If their defense can play as well as it did last season, then there’s no reason to believe they can’t make another title appearance next season.
The Buckeyes will welcome back quarterback Terrelle Pryor, who turned in an outstanding performance in a Rose Bowl win over the Oregon Ducks (12/1). With Pyror back under center and a defense chockfull of outstanding talent, Ohio State is a major threat to run the tables next year and make a title appearance.
The team Alabama knocked off in the 2010 BCS title game, the Texas Longhorns, have 14/1 odds to win next year despite not having Colt McCoy under center. They’ll start sophomore signal caller Garrett Gilbert in hopes he can bring them back to the promise land next season.
With senior Tim Tebow moving on to the NFL, the Florida Gators are 16/1 long shots to win the 2011 BCS title game. The USC Trojans, another perennial favorite every year, is 15/1 to win next year now that Pete Carroll is heading back to the NFL to coach the Seattle Seahawks.
