Tonight’s safest bet: Two Tigers will catch each other’s tails, and when one eventually releases its jaws, the other will strike and be crowned the champion of college football.
The No. 3 Clemson Tigers (14-0) plays the No. 1 LSU Tigers (14-0) tonight in the 2020 College Football Playoff National Championship, and the top legal sports betting sites have a slew of odds and prop bets available for the last matchup of the bowl betting season.
Betting on the CFP title game got underway immediately following the conclusion of the two semifinal matchups on December 28.
The first game saw LSU dominate the Oklahoma Sooners on their way to a 63-28 victory led by Heisman winner Joe Burrow, who chalked up a CFP record eight touchdowns (seven passing, one rushing) on the stat sheet.
In the nightcap matchup, Trevor Lawrence led the defending national champions to a comeback 26-21 win over the Ohio State Buckeyes after some controversial no-calls from the officials.
Oddsmakers opened LSU as a 3.5-point favorite over Clemson in the national championship game, and since then, the public has hammered the favorite in purple and gold. Roughly 76% of the public is taking LSU on the spread compared to 26% for Clemson.
At most sportsbooks, LSU is now a 5-point favorite before kickoff, and some public betting markets have them as high as 5.5 points over Clemson. The over/under for the title game is set at 67.5 total points.
In addition to the title game betting line, oddsmakers have also released prop bets for the matchup, which include everything from President Donald Trump attending to the game, whether famous alumni will make an appearance, which player will score the first touchdown, and many more.
Below you can all of the best odds and prop bets for the LSU-Clemson 2020 title game. If it’s your first time placing a wager, be sure to check out our Legal College Football Betting Guide, so your Tigers’ tail will be covered before tonight’s national championship.
