Playing with tiebreaker scenarios, it looks like there is still a path for the
Big 12 championship game to be between Texas Tech and Baylor. Wouldn't that be wild?

It would require BYU losing to both Arizona St. and Houston, Arizona St. losing to Arizona, Colorado losing to Kansas and Oklahoma St., and Kansas St. beating Iowa St. to bring all those teams to finishing 6-3 in conference, and then Baylor beating Houston/Kansas, Texas Tech beating Oklahoma St. and West Virginia, and TCU beating Cincinnati.

At that point, there is at least a 7-way tie for 1st place in the Big 12 at 6-3 (could be 8), and it ends up being 8-4 Texas Tech and 8-4 Baylor who win the tiebreakers due to conference strength of schedule. This would be a worst-case scenario finish for the conference as it would result in a 9-4 conference champion that has essentially no shot at a playoff bid.
