Below, from the Big 12 website, are the bowl options for the Big 12.

Since it's totally irresponsible to make predictions right now, that makes it more fun to pick a bowl and an opponent.

I'll say either Liberty against SEC's LSU (a rematch from Teaff era) or Camping World [Citrus] against Florida State.

Given that the bowls can select any team they want in their order of selection and thus are not required to take the highest ranked team, I would expect Baylor to be selected for a Texas or Arizona based bowl for the purpose of generating a larger fan base presence. If that is the case, the Texas, First Responder, Alamo and Cheez-It bowls all make sense. Assuming the Alamo picks someone else, and, assuming the Texas bowl wouldn't want Baylor twice in a row, Baylor could easily end up in the First Responder or Cheez-It bowls.
