The PDX Kid

I am beginning to think College Football has a bit of an attendance problem brewing. Look at the thread below to see the crowds yesterday at Oklahoma, Penn State, UCLA, TCU, Maryland, SDSU, and FSU. 🤯

What is the main cause? Unrealistic expectations? Economy? Apathy? Halloween?

If ALL of the following teams made the playoffs (i.e. remove any probability of not making the playoffs), these are the current implied favorites and odds to win the national championship according to Kalshi markets.

Simply put, this is unofficial Kalshi ranking of the best teams in college football.

Of all the hot takes of this Duck season, this might top the cake. 👇🏼

Is Oregon better than UCLA?

Oregon currently has slightly better odds of winning the national championship than UCLA (5.4% vs. UCLA's 5.2%) - assuming they both make the playoffs.

Given the fact that UCLA currently has a 77% probability of making the playoffs - as compared to Oregon’s 37% - UCLA’s overall odds of winning a title remain better.

According to Kalshi, Oregon now has the 3rd best odds in the Big Ten of making the College Football Playoffs.

Oregon - 36%
Iowa - 29%
USC - 22%
Ohio State - 17%
