Bob Stoops and his Oklahoma Sooners are looking to repeat as Big 12 conference champions after Baker Mayfield and company took the conference back from TCU and Baylor last year to make the College Football Playoff.
They look to be the best team on paper and Bovada’s latest conference odds shows the Sooners are the team to beat once again in the Big 12.
Bovada listed Oklahoma as the betting favorite with 2/3 odds they’ll take the conference crown with Mayfield once again leading the offensive attack.
If it’s not Oklahoma that wins the Big 12, Bovada still likes the conference champ to hail from the state with Mason Rudolph and the Oklahoma State Cowboys getting 5/1 odds. The TCU Horned Frogs are tied with the Pokes for the second best odds.
The Baylor Bears would likely have had 5/1 odds or better but after the firing of head coach Art Briles, the Bears are a massive question mark this season under interim head coach Jim Grobe and are getting 8/1 odds.
Charlie Strong and the Texas Longhorns are hoping for their first winning record as he enters his third year in Austin, but a conference title seems a year or two away, at least, and are getting 17/2 odds.

West Virginia at 12/1, Kansas State and Texas Tech at 33/1 are given a puncher’s chance, but that can’t be said for Iowa State and Kansas who are getting 100/1 and 250/1 odds, respectively to win the Big 12. Putting $5 down on the Jayhawks may be worth it for the degenerate gambler.
Do you think Oklahoma will ultimately win the Big 12 or will the Pokes, Horned Frogs, Bears or Longhorns emerge as the champs?
