Las Vegas is a fan of TCU and Baylor

Add Vegas to the list of the believers in TCU.

Gary Patterson’s team is double-digit favorites in six different games released by The Golden Nugget, a Las Vegas sports book, on Friday. The Horned Frogs opened as double-digit favorites over Texas (21), Oklahoma State (11), Minnesota (18), Iowa State (29), West Virginia (20) and Kansas State (11). Trevone Boykin’s squad is also opened as a favorite in the Big 12’s spotlight of the year against fellow co-champion Baylor as a six-point favorite against the Bears.

Art Briles program is a double-digit favorite in several games despite its underdog status against TCU. Home games against Texas, (18), WVU (17) and Oklahoma (13) are expected to be comfortable victories for BU.

Oklahoma is another team The Golden Nugget has eyes for, picking the Sooners as three-point favorites at Oklahoma State in Bedlam on Nov. 28. A Bedlam road win would be sweet revenge for the Sooners after last year’s loss to the Cowboys help spark changes for Bob Stoops program heading into 2015. The Sooners also opened as 6.5-point favorites against Texas in the annual Red River Showdown.

While Vegas is a fan of TCU, OU and Baylor, the programs in Morgantown, West Virginia and Stillwater, Oklahoma weren’t so lucky. In addition to their major underdog status against TCU, The Golden Nugget has West Virginia as a double-digit underdog against OU and Baylor. Meanwhile, Oklahoma State is an underdog in five different games with its home game against Kansas State as its lone game as a favorite.
