A few New Year's Day bowl games set the table for the main course. Tomorrow night, both College Football Playoff Semifinals will take the field nearly one month after the matchups were announced. First, No. 1 Michigan faces No. 4 Alabama at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. The undefeated Wolverines are two point favorites against the one loss Crimson Tide, who won the SEC Championship against Georgia and supplanted unbeaten Florida State in the Playoff.

Michigan is aiming for its first CFP win in program history, while Bama is just three years removed from its third CFP Championship. Next up, No. 2 Washington battles No. 3 Texas at the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, LA. The Huskies are the other undefeated team in this year's CFP, yet they're four point underdogs against a Longhorn squad with one loss.

This is Texas' first appearance in the four team Playoff, while Washington is back after debuting in 2016. Here are the six best college football betting promos for new customers who grab before Monday's CFP doubleheader: NEWSWEEK BetMGM has a massive first bet on the house for new customers.

Place up to $1,500 on Alabama Michigan or Texas Washington, and BetMGM will refund your qualifying stake after a loss. Players get five bonus bets worth their qualifying stake (i.e., five $300 bonus bets after a $1,500 loss). When new customers sign up for Caesars Sportsbook, they'll qualify for a fully backed welcome bet worth up to $1,000.

Input our code and bet up to a grand on either CFP matchup. Caesars will issue a one time bonus bet worth your qualifying stake after a loss. The bet365 bonus code NEWSXLM unlocks two college football betting promos, but players can only pick one. The "Bet $5, Get $150" returns $150 in bonus bets, win or lose, while the $1,000 First Bet Safety Net delivers a full refund in bonus bets on qualifying losses worth up to a grand.

Like a few other sportsbooks already mentioned, FanDuel gives new customers a guaranteed bonus after their first $5+ wager. Throw a $5 bet on Alabama Michigan or Texas Washington, and FanDuel will issue $150 in bonus bets regardless of the odds or how your wager settles. DraftKings' entry on the list of college football betting promos is another "Bet $5, Get $150" offer.

However, DK issues six $25 bonus bets on the spot, guaranteeing you'll have a bankroll for tomorrow's games. DraftKings and ESPN BET are the only sportsbooks that pay bonuses out instantly.
