The college football season starts in two weeks. Las Vegas sportsbooks have familiar faces at the top of the list of best odds to win the 2023 national championship.

Ohio State is +300 to win the college football championship. The team is loaded with talent, but their defense is not. They lost to Michigan in the regular season last year. They predicted Michigan to be the winner of the Big Ten.
Georgia is the defending national champion. They had five players drafted in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Alabama won the national championship in 2011-12.
Clemson is the favorite to win the national championship. The Tigers had a bad season last year and didn't make the playoffs for the first time since 2015. They play in the worst conference and have the easiest path to the playoff.
USC is a trendy pick with Lincoln Riley now at the helm and Caleb Williams as the starting quarterback. The Pac-12 will be no cakewalk for USC. Utah is also a contender.
Texas A&M finished 8-4 last year. They had the number one recruiting class in the country. Their defense finished 3rd nationally in points allowed, 7th in limiting explosive plays and 8th on defensive efficiency. If the offense takes a step forward and they make use of the recruiting trail, Texas A & M could be an intriguing darkhorse.
