2018 Big 12 Football Picks & Predictions – Odds to Win 2018 Big 12 Football Championship: The odds to win the 2018 Big 12 Football Championship are out at Bovada Sportsbook and the Oklahoma Sooners are installed as the +150 favorites to win and repeat as Big 12 Champions. However, Oklahoma will have to fill the huge void left by departing quarterback and last year’s Heisman Trophy winner, Baker Mayfield. Mayfield was the top overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft and his playmaking ability along with his leadership will be almost impossible for the Sooners to replace. Let’s take a closer look at the 2018 Big 12 Football Conference this upcoming college football season and make our expert college football picks & predictions on the Big 12 team we feel will capture the league title as well as predicting the overall records of each team in the Big 12 before the bowl season.
Odds to Win the 2018 Big 12 Football Championship – Big 12 Football Predictions & Expert Picks
1. Texas Longhorns(+350 odds to win Big 12) – Texas Longhorns head coach Tom Herman had a solid debut season last year as he led the Longhorns to a 7-6 overall record including 5-4 in the Big 12. The Longhorns capped off the season in style with a 33-16 win over Missouri in the Texas Bowl and big things are expected in Austin this season with 12 returning starters back in the fold. The Longhorns welcome back 6 starters on an offensive unit that finished 52nd nationally last season with a scoring output of 29.5 ppg. Sophomore quarterback Sam Ehlinger will battle it out with junior quarterback Shane Buechele for the starting job with Ehlinger most likely being the man to start the season behind center for the Horns. Ehlinger threw for 1915 yards and 11 touchdowns last season in addition to running for 385 yards and 2 touchdowns in a solid freshman debut. The Horns will need to improve considerably on offense if they plan on winning the Big 12 but they have the pieces to do just that. Defensively, the Horns finished a respectable 29th in the nation last season giving up 21.2 ppg and they have 6 starters back to help those numbers improve considerably. Defensive coordinator Todd Orlando is one of the best in the business and was given a nice pay raise up to $1.7 million for the next 3 seasons after impressing Herman last year. The Horns defense led the Big 12 in 3rd down defense and the entire nation with 7 defensive touchdowns. Look for the Horns defense to be one of the top 15 units in the nation this season and lead the Horns to a terrific season. 2018 Projection 11-2, 7-2 Big 12
