The Pac-12, as we know it, has one last dance as a basketball conference this season. The future is very uncertain, with a lot of these teams joining the Big 12 and the ACC next season. The Pac-12 has been dominated by a few teams in its recent history, but when looking at the odds for this upcoming season, we should see more competition for the league title. Here, we’ll look at the current odds for every Pac-12 team to win the league title as well as my winner to win the Pac-12.

I hate to be chalky, but I’m going to roll with the Wildcats to win the Pac-12. This team is loaded with talent. Getting Oumar Ballo back is really going to lift this team with his size. The Wildcats did lose Kerr Kriisa to West Virginia in the offseason, as well as losing Azuolas Tubelis to the NBA.
Ballo averaged 14.2 points and 8.6 rebounds on 64.7% shooting last season, and both of those numbers are expected to increase. Plus, his minutes per game have increased from 15.3 to 27.6 in the 2021-2022 seasons. Expect his minutes and numbers to increase even more this season.
Arizona also brought in former North Carolina Tar Heel Caleb Love in the transfer portal, which should give them an extra body to make a deep run in March. I think, besides maybe UCLA, it’s going to be a tough battle for the rest of the other teams to compete for the Pac-12 title. Give me the Wildcats at +160 to win back-to-back Pac-12 titles.
