According to the above graphic, Michigan has received the highest percentage of tickets wagered (14%) on a team to win the National Championship since January. Likewise, the Wolverines, who started with 15-to-1 odds and are now at 10-to-1 to win next year’s title, only trail Ohio State for the most money wagered on them since 1/11/16.
The Wolverines currently have the fifth best odds of winning it all (Alabama 11-to-2, Clemson and Ohio State 6-to-1, and Oklahoma 17-to-2).
