An interesting wager available at the South Point Casino. They selected 5 teams to be called the "Power 5". The wager is simple. Do 4 of the "Power 5" teams make it to the Playoffs? This year the Power 5 teams are Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Oklahoma and Washington. They opened up at -500 to make it, while the odds were +400 for any other team to crash the party. That line has since dropped to "Power 5" -390, others +310.
Alabama and Clemson look like locks but in Alabama's case, there is the rub. The top rated team not in the "Power 5" is Georgia, who would most likely knock 'Bama or some other team out of the playoffs if they win the SEC Title. The two teams most likely not to make it are Ohio State and Oklahoma. Interesting wager.
