ESPN: Ohio State most popular bet to win title; rival Michigan among top five

per ESPN:

One month before the college football season kicks off, the Michigan Wolverines are one of the most popular bets to win the national championship at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook.

Only four teams have attracted more money than Jim Harbaugh's Wolverines in the national championship futures pool at the SuperBook. A 100-1 long shot, Michigan also is fifth in number of overall bets.

Consensus favorite Ohio State, 5-2, is by far the most popular national title bet. Nearly four times more money has been wagered on the Buckeyes than any other team. Alabama has attracted the second most money, followed by Auburn, Notre Dame and Michigan.

And Vegas appreciates their charity.

Wolverine fans must truly be delusional.

100 to 1 is pretty good odds for a annual top ten recruiting class team...

Michigan actually makes sense as a value bet. The suckers are those betting on tOSU.
