The Holiday Bowl has the second choice among Pacific-12 Conference teams and fourth choice from the 10-team Big 12 Conference, after the conference champions and any additional teams were chosen to participate in Bowl Championship Series games.
UCLA is 9-4, while Baylor, which will also be making its first Holiday Bowl appearance, is 7-5. The Bears ended the regular season with three consecutive victories.
