We're rapidly barreling through college football preseason odds, so we're running out of time to wager real money on teams we have yet to see play a live snap.
Bovada, the sportsbook online gamblers love to know, released another wave of national title and Heisman odds Tuesday morning. Of note, Ohio State's championship odds moved from 15/2 in January to 13/2 today, which trails only Alabama (1/4 to 12/5) and USC (9/1 to 6/1).
Michigan's odds fell from 9/1 to 16/1 in the same time period, while Mississippi was removed entirely in wake of the Hugh Freeze escort scandal. Penn State, a regular season Ohio State opponent, is listed at 16/1.
