As of Wednesday, May 14, 2025, Las Vegas sportsbooks have released their projected win totals for the Big 12 Conference in the upcoming 2025 college football season. These totals provide an early glimpse into the expectations for each team.  

Here's a look at the win totals for each Big 12 team, according to multiple sources like FanDuel and Circa Sports:

8.5 Wins: Arizona State, Kansas State, Texas Tech  
7.5 Wins: Baylor, BYU, Iowa State, Kansas, Utah  
6.5 Wins: Cincinnati, Colorado, TCU
5.5 Wins: Arizona, Houston, Oklahoma State, UCF, West Virginia
Key Observations:

Parity at the Top: The oddsmakers anticipate a tight race at the top of the conference, with Arizona State, Kansas State, and Texas Tech all projected to win 8.5 games. This suggests a wide-open Big 12 title race.  
Crowded Middle: A significant number of teams are clustered around the 7.5 and 6.5 win marks, indicating a potentially large group of bowl-eligible teams and competitive matchups throughout the season.
Lower Expectations for Some: Teams like Arizona, Houston, Oklahoma State, UCF, and West Virginia have lower win totals, suggesting they might be in rebuilding phases or facing tougher schedules.  
Newcomers Factored In: The projections reflect the transitions for teams like Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and UCF as they navigate their new conference landscape. Arizona State, despite being a newcomer in 2024 and winning the conference, is expected to remain a strong contender.
Texas and Oklahoma's Absence: It's important to remember that these win totals reflect the Big 12 in its current 16-team configuration, without Texas and Oklahoma, who are now in the SEC.
These win totals are based on various factors, including returning talent, coaching changes, strength of schedule, and offseason acquisitions through recruiting and the transfer portal. However, they are just projections, and the actual outcomes of the 2025 season could vary significantly.
