Alabama is a decent favorite to win the national title, according to updated sports book odds posted Monday.
The Tide are not yet assured of a spot in the College Football Playoff. But a win in the SEC title game will guarantee at least a No. 2 seed.
Interestingly, Oklahoma — likely a No. 3 or No. 4 seed — has better odds than Clemson (12-0, ranked No. 1).
