Oddballs are human skulls. The main idea is to hold it for as long as you can until you win. That's pretty much it. There are variants in which each member in your team has to hold the skull for 30 seconds.

Halopedia's description
Oddball is a multiplayer game-type featured in the Halo series. The objective is to locate the skull(s) on the map and to maintain possession of it for the longest period of time possible. The default settings allow the game to be a free for all with 1 skull on the map, which you need to have possession of for 2 minutes in order to win. This game can be played as a Rumble Game or a Team Game where the highest score of the lone player (Free-For-All), or on a team's accumulative score, chooses the victor(s). Normally, a player who has the oddball is the immediate target for the other players, which is what makes Oddball an extremely fast paced and fun game-type. While a player has possession of the Oddball, they cannot wield their weapons or throw grenades. However, they can still melee opponents with the skull, which normally inflicts massive damage. The settings for the game can also be altered to make it more interesting. For example, the player with the oddball can go invisible or can be slowed down. The number of oddballs, on the map can also be changed. The Oddball takes the form of a skull. Oddball, in Halo 3 is the same and looks just like the skulls of Halo 2.
