Oregon Leads Projected Win Totals For Pac-12 CFB Season

• Now is the last opportunity to get odds on win totals for PAC-12 teams this season, like the Oregon Ducks at +140 to win over six games.
• The PAC-12 conference begins their seven-game season this Saturday, November 7.
• Other lines available include USC over 5.5 wins for -105, Washington over 4.5 wins at -115, and Utah over 4.5 wins for even odds.

SAN DEIGO – After nearly two months of college football around the nation, the PAC-12 is finally ready to join in on the action.

The Pacific Coastal Conference was the last group of major teams to make a plan to play football in 2020 after initially planning on playing in 2021.

The schools eventually decided upon a seven-game, conference only schedule to be played in November and December, including a championship game between the South and North divisional winners.

While it is certainly strange to be starting the football season in November, the college football landscape is happy to have their friends from out west joining the party this season.

Currently, bettors can still find online betting odds for who will win the PAC-12 this season, as well as individual win totals for each team.

Only two teams from the PAC-12 will begin the season ranked in the Top 25, with Oregon and USC tied for the shortest odds to win the conference.

While the PAC-12 has always been a hotbed for chaos, there isn’t much room at the top.

In fact, over the last 13 years, the only schools to win the PAC-12 are USC, Oregon, Washington, and Stanford. The last champion from outside this group was Arizona State, who shared the 2007 title with USC.

With only seven games to work with, there is little room for error if any of these teams hope to make a college football playoff appearance.

Every win matters, which is why college football bettors are focusing on the win totals for the top teams in the conference.

The team with the most realistic shot to ascend out of the PAC-12 into the playoffs this season is the Oregon Ducks. Oddsmakers are currently giving the Ducks a +140 shot at going undefeated in 2020.

Oregon has been building a great team over the last few seasons under Mario Cristobal and was just a few plays short of making some major noise last season behind Justin Herbert.

Just behind Oregon in win total is USC, who comes in at 5.5 wins.

The Trojans are still trying to decide if head coach Clay Helton is the man for the job. Helton is 40-22 (.645%) in his tenure at USC and is likely still sitting on a scorching hot seat.

If the Trojans aren’t able to win at least five games, it isn’t crazy to say that Helton will be looking for a new job.

The Huskies come in with decent odds to win five of their seven games this season.

While Washington has been a letdown in big games over the last few seasons, they are still the only PAC-12 team to make the College Football Playoffs, doing so back in 2015.

The Utah Utes have been stirring the pot since they joined the PAC-12, and could do so again in 2020 with a solid team to work with.

While the Utes have usually played the role of spoiler, they could be a top dog trying to avoid the upset this season in a run to the PAC-12 Championship.
