Ranking the top offenses in the Big 12 conference for 2023

We rank every Big 12 offense for 2023.

Offense is back in the Big 12 this season. For the most part the league should have among the most dynamic offenses in the nation this year.

Houston head coach Dana Holgorson brings his Air Raid offense back to the league after leaving West Virginia not long ago. UCF and BYU bring their own unique offenses to the conference in what could be the most diverse offensive league in college football.

TCU figures to be one of the top offenses despite losing several contributors. Oklahoma, Texas Tech and Kansas State will bring their own dynamic offensive attacks to the forefront of the Big 12 conversation.

Baylor is a sneaky good offensive team in its own right. The team’s collection of solid role players make for a consistent scoring threat in 2023.

Here’s a look at our ranking of the top Big 12 offenses for 2023.

Predicting the top five offenses in the Big 12 for 2022

Big 12 offenses should live up to their reputation.

The Big 12 has been known for explosive offenses for awhile, but has experienced a defensive renaissance over the last few seasons.

Teams like Baylor, Iowa State, and Oklahoma State diversified the offensive style of the league the last few years. Power running has become the focus of many offenses, with a few air raid principles sprinkled in at Oklahoma State.

The conference may live up to its offensive reputation this season. Texas Tech added one of the premier facilitators of passing offense in Zach Kittley, while TCU added Sonny Dykes’ explosive offensive plan of attack.

For Texas, Steve Sarkisian added a host of talented receivers to test defensive backs.

With so many prolific offenses expected to break out this season, let’s look at the five best offenses in the Big 12 conference.

Predicting the best offenses in the Big 12 for 2022

Texas’ trio of Quinn Ewers, Bijan Robinson and Xavier Worthy has a chance to be special in 2022.

Over the years the Big 12 conference has built a reputation of having some of the best high flying, up-tempo offenses in the country.

Offensive minds like Mike Leach, Art Briles and Lincoln Riley are out of the league now but new faces such as Steve Sarkisian, Jeff Lebby and Sonny Dykes all have great offensive resumes of their own.

Texas Tech and West Virginia made moves to new offensive coordinators who specialize in the spread passing attack.

The majority of the Big 12 conference will also have new quarterbacks leading their offense in 2022. Only Baylor and Oklahoma State return their established starter from a year ago.

Outside of the quarterback position, the Big 12 returns some of the most electric players in the country. Bijan Robinson (Texas), Deuce Vaughn (Kansas State), Marvin Mims (Oklahoma) and Xavier Worthy (Texas) are just a few of many talented skill players.
