College football odds 2016: Who’s favored in conference championship weekend?

Oklahoma, Alabama, and Clemson look to lock up consecutive conference titles this Saturday, with each team a large betting favorite at the sportsbooks.

The Oklahoma Sooners are 7-1 straight up and 6-2 against the spread in their last eight games played on Week 14 of the season. The Sooners hope to end another regular season on a high note this Saturday at home against the Oklahoma State Cowboys. While it isn’t officially the Big 12 Championship, the winner of the game will win the conference.

Oklahoma is a 12.5-point home favorite at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. With an 8-0 SU record in conference play, a Sooners win would secure both a Big 12 championship and a perfect conference record for Oklahoma.

The Cowboys are just 2-11 SU in their last 13 games against Oklahoma, but their last win over the Sooners came in Norman in a 38-35 road win in 2014. Oklahoma State would improve to 8-1 SU in conference play.

College Football Week 14 Betting Lines (see the complete list at OddsShark)

  • Florida vs. Alabama (-23)
  • Ohio vs. Western Michigan (-19)
  • Baylor at West Virginia (-16)
  • Oklahoma State at Oklahoma (-12.5)
  • Virginia Tech vs. Clemson (-9.5)
  • Louisiana Tech at Western Kentucky (-7.5)
  • San Diego State (-7) at Wyoming
  • Colorado vs. Washington (-7)
  • Temple at Navy (-3)
  • Penn State vs. Wisconsin (-2.5)

Win or lose this Saturday, the Alabama Crimson Tide will almost certainly be headed to the College Football Playoff. But a loss for the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship Game doesn’t seem likely as the defending conference champions are 23-point betting favorites over the Florida Gators.

Florida has lost each of its last five games against the Crimson Tide and is just 2-8 ATS in the last 10 games in this head-to-head series. Alabama is 5-1 ATS in its last six games against teams with winning records.

The Clemson Tigers are also looking for back-to-back titles in the ACC, going off as 9.5-point favorites in the ACC Championship Game against the Virginia Tech Hokies. Virginia Tech was the last team to win the ACC Championship from the Coastal Division all the way back in 2010.

Clemson is 3-0 SU and ATS in its last three games against the Hokies per the OddsShark College Football Database.

There will be no repeat champions in the Pac-12 or Big Ten this season. Washington is a 7-point favorite against Colorado in the Pac-12 Championship Game on Friday and Wisconsin is a 2.5-point favorite against Penn State in the Big Ten Championship Game on Saturday.

Washington hasn’t won a Pac-12 title since sharing the lead with Oregon and Oregon State back in 2000, and Colorado had never even had a winning season in Pac-12 play before this one.
