Oddsmakers are not expecting any of the first-round games of the College Football Playoff to land within a touchdown.
All four first rounds games have spreads bigger than seven points at ESPN BET.
There has been some — but not much — movement in the markets since the lines opened.
Indiana opened as an 8.5-point underdog against Notre Dame, but that has been bet down significantly, with 63.8 percent of the money coming in on the Hoosiers against the spread (ATS).
Texas opened at -10.5 against Clemson with a very slight movement to -11, with 57.8 percent of the money coming in on the Longhorns.
There hasn’t been movement in the other two games while we prepare for an exciting two days of football spanning Dec. 20-21.

BetMGM tells The Post that the most money is on the underdogs ATS.
Tennessee +7.5 has accrued the most betting handle of any game, although this is just slightly more than half of the money (57 percent).
It is a game that is garnering significant interest.
Totals dropped a full point since line opening in Clemson vs. Texas and Indiana vs. Notre Dame, while totals have risen a point in the other two games.
