2023 Pac-12 football win total odds released
DraftKings has released its win total odds for many college football teams across the country, including all 12 Pac-12 programs. With six teams between 8 and 10 wins, there is no conference that is as tight at the top as the Pac-12.
Oregon and USC are the two favorites of the conference with their over/unders set at 9.5 wins. Both teams return highly-regarded veteran quarterbacks and second-year head coaches.
For the Trojans, that combination is Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams and Lincoln Riley. For the Ducks, that duo is Bo Nix and Dan Lanning.
Williams is the favorite to repeat as Heisman Trophy winner with +550 odds while Nix comes in tied for fifth at +1400 with Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr.
The Huskies are right behind USC and Oregon in the hierarchy at 9 wins. UCLA and Utah are next at 8.5. Oregon State, expected to be led by former Clemson quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, round out the top half of the conference at 8.
The Trojans are the favorites out of the conference to win the national title. They have the fifth best overall odds at +1400. Oregon is at +3500 and Washington is at +4000.

Greg McElroy gives his unique opinion on the biggest game of the Pac-12 calendar
ESPN commentator and analyst recently named what he thinks will be the biggest games of the Pac-12 slate. However, his answer didn’t highlight one specific game but instead discussed a general concept.
The biggest game, he said, will be “anybody and their brother over USC and UCLA.”
Because of the bad blood with the two Los Angeles powers leaving for the Big Ten next season, McElroy says teams are going to want to knock them down as many pegs as possible.
The icing on top of that cake would be beating one of them in the Pac-12 Championship Game. Because one of them winning the Pac-12 Championship would be a tough pill to swallow.
“How do you think the league would feel about that?” McElory said. “How do you think George Kliavkoff would feel about that? Probably not so great. Probably not so great. He’s probably thinking hey, man, don’t let the door hit you on the way out. By the way, you missed the conference championship game so we don’t need you.”
