Texas Tech is an excellent betting candidate because they are the overwhelming favorite to win the Big 12, currently holding the best odds from most sportsbooks (e.g., -300 to -350). Their high probability is justified by their Top 10 national ranking and a dominant record that includes key conference wins over other contenders, while their elite defense is consistently ranked among the nation's best, giving them a high floor for success against the remainder of the Big 12 field.

When looking to bet on a team to win the Big 12 conference title, it’s vital to look at their returning production, transfers coming in, transfers lost, and recruiting class. A team who retains a majority of their core is in a great position to build on their success, especially if they are coupled with a great recruiting class. This helps lessen the amount of variance in their contests, especially early on when a team is still trying to establish their identity.
Another factor to consider before placing a wager on a team to win the Big 12 is their strength of schedule. With the top two conference records moving on to the conference title game, an easier schedule drastically increases a team’s chances of moving on. Especially if they possess an easy non-conference schedule as it gives the team a chance to iron out their kinks and reconfigure their lineups to help maximize on their efficiency.
Before placing a wager on the Big 12 conference winner market, it’s important to know how the listed odds work. If you place a $100 wager on Utah to win at their preseason odds of +750, then a $100 wager would profit you $750 if they win the title.
If you wait to see if the Utes make it to the Big 12 conference championship and are listed with a minus sign in front of their odds (-125 for example), then you would need to wager $125 to profit $100. Make sure you line shop before placing any type of wager as the odds for the same market can drastically vary between each sportsbook.

The Big 12 has seen plenty of parity over the past few years as no one has won two straight conference titles since Oklahoma did it in 2015-2020. Speaking of the Sooners, they led the conference with 14 conference titles before they departed for the SEC Conference. With Oklahoma gone, the Baylor Bears are now the new current leaders with three total titles.
