Second, while Utah and BYU both left the conference, powerhouse Boise State is now in the fold with star quarterback Kellen Moore back for another season.

So that means the Broncos are the 2/7 favorites on the college football betting lines at the Bodog Sportsbook to win the Mountain West Conference this season, with the Horned Frogs behind them on that list at 7/2 odds.

San Diego State (12/1) and Air Force (16/1) are the next tier of challengers in the MWC, while Colorado State (25/1), Wyoming (33/1), UNLV (80/1), and New Mexico (150/1) are farther back on the chart.

TCU at least has running back Ed Wesley for another season, after he rushed for 1,063 yards with 11 touchdowns in 2010. And the school hasn't been completely written off as a title contender for this year, as they're at 30/1 on the NCAA football futures to win the national championship.

On the props market, the Horned Frogs' OVER/UNDER total for the season is set at nine wins. They'll be looking for their first win on Friday, September 2 when they play on the road against Baylor; the Bodog Sportsbook will have the line and total.First, they no longer have quarterback Andy Dalton at the helm. Dalton threw for 2,857 yards last season with 27 touchdowns and just six interceptions, and was then made a second-round pick by the Cincinnati Bengals in the NFL Draft. Sophomore Casey Pachall takes the reins this season.
