Southern Cal is the most dominant of any of the BCS conference favorites.
The Trojans are listed as 4/5 (-125) favorites to win the Pac-12 at the prominent online sportsbook 5Dimes.eu.
No other BCS team is as a big of favorite to win its own conference:
Big 12: Oklahoma 6/5 (+120)
Big Ten: Michigan 11/5 (+220)
Big East: Louisville 12/5 (+240)
ACC: Florida State 7/5 (+140)
Southern Cal will be a double-digit favorite in each of its games, except for its Nov. 6 showdown against visiting Oregon.
The Ducks are +215 to win the Pac-12, an intriguing option, considering USC likely will have to beat Chip Kelly’s team twice, including in the conference title game.
In oddsmakers’ eyes, the other 10 teams might as well not suit up. Stanford is listed at 17/1, followed by Washington and Cal at 24/1. Everyone else is listed at 37/1 (Utah) or greater, with Colorado listed at 140/1.
