Top 2022 College Football National Championship predictions
Hunt typically finds value in backing the Crimson Tide to win national championships. This year is different, however. While Alabama, which is currently listed at +260 to win this year’s title, has been dominant for well over a decade, there are far too many question marks, particularly on the offensive side of the ball.
Offensively, the Tide will have to deal with replacing wide receivers Jaylen Waddle and Devonta Smith, quarterback Mac Jones, running back Najee Harris, and a trio of key offensive linemen including Alex Leatherwood, the Las Vegas Raiders’ first round pick. On the defensive side of the ball, Alabama has to replace Pat Surtain II and Christian Barmore.
These issues, combined with the returning talent throughout the SEC, have Hunt fading Alabama in 2021-22. You can see the full list of college football national championship odds at SportsLine.
