UH football to open season at Baylor

The Houston football team will travel to McLane Stadium in Waco on Sept. 19 for a game against Baylor, the University announced on Saturday evening.

The announcement from both programs comes hours after UH and Memphis mutually agreed to postpone its game that was scheduled for Sept. 18 after reportedly 20 players on the Tigers roster had tested positive for COVID-19.

“We are excited to have the opportunity to open the 2020 season at Baylor,” UH athletic director Chris Pezman said. “It will be exciting for both fan bases to renew this Southwest Conference rivalry.
