- Notre Dame and Texas are the top early bets at Caesars — Notre Dame leads in tickets and money at +600, with Texas right behind at +700 (ND’s soft schedule and Arch Manning hype are big drivers).
- Ohio State is the favorite at +575 and drawing strong support; Caesars says Ohio State — along with Georgia and LSU — is unusually favorable this year, with QB Julian Sayin and WR Jeremiah Smith getting praise.
- Wild longshot alert: someone placed $3,000 on Rutgers at 500/1 — a $1.5 million payout if it hits.
