Nate Silver's model says Alabama is a slight favorite to win the College Football Playoff
Alabama has a 30% chance to be crowned champs.
With just three games to go that truly matter, Alabama is a slight favorite to win it all, according to Nate Silver's model at FiveThirtyEight.com, with a 30% chance to win it all. Oklahoma is the longest shot at 19%.
When we look a little closer, we see that the final four is really just a big toss-up at this point. According to the model, Alabama has just a slight edge over Clemson to reach the championship game, 52% to 48%, suggesting that whoever wins that semifinal will be favored in the championship game. Georgia's edge over Oklahoma in the other semifinal is only slightly bigger at 54% to 46%.
