2023 College World Series odds for baseball national title
LSU is No. 1 in virtually every preseason college baseball ranking. Now the oddsmakers have officially installed the Tigers as national title favorites.
Caesars Sportsbook, official odds partner of Bet.NOLA.com, dropped odds this week on who will win the 2023 College World Series, and LSU leads the way at +700. That means a $100 bet would profit $700 if the Tigers win it all in Omaha.
Not surprisingly, in LSU's company are other strong Southeastern Conference teams.
The next listed, at +800, is Tennessee, which comes to Baton Rouge in late March for a three-game series. The Volunteers finished last season 57-9 and ranked No. 9.
Other SEC teams near the top of the odds board are Florida (+1300); reigning national champion Ole Miss (+1500); and the trio of Texas A&M, Vanderbilt and Arkansas, all at +1800.
In fact, the only non-SEC teams with better than 20-1 odds are Stanford (+1200) and Texas (+2000).
At other sportsbooks, the Tigers are even heavier favorites; DraftKings has LSU listed at +500 to win.
LSU opens its season Feb. 17 against Western Michigan in Baton Rouge.
