The odds are out and they simply confirm what every Big 12 team, particularly Texas and Oklahoma, now most certainly realize: There's a new world order in the conference.

The Longhorns and Sooners, so used to being Big 12 title favorites, have taken a backseat to rising powers and last season's co-champs, TCU and Baylor, which can claim back-to-back league titles.

Sportsbook operator CG Technology posted its odds Monday for 2015 champions from each Power 5 conference. TCU (17-10) and Baylor (5-2) are favored to win the league title. Oklahoma (4-1) , Oklahoma State (5-1) are next. Texas (7-1) is smack-dab in the middle.

So there's always a chance.

Here's how the entire conference shakes out, according to CG Technology:

TCU 17-10

Baylor 5-2

Oklahoma 4-1

Oklahoma State 5-1

Texas 7-1

Kansas State 10-1

West Virginia 15-1

Texas Tech 20-1

Iowa State 25-1

Kansas 100-1
