Baylor Basketball Hosts Houston Saturday at Ferrell Center in Exhibition Game

Baylor basketball will play Houston at noon on Saturday at the Ferrell Center. All ticket sales will benefit Hurricane Harvey relief.

You can buy tickets for $5 here. Students—with an I.D.—can purchase tickets for $1 at the arena. All seats will be general admission and the doors will open at 11:30.

Baylor released this info as well:

Baylor and U of H received an NCAA waiver to play the additional exhibition game. The Bears and Cougars will play a regulation 40-minute game with some rules modified in the spirit of an exhibition.

"This is an incredible opportunity to use the game of basketball to provide relief for our neighbors in need," Baylor head coach Scott Drew said. "We're thankful to be able to play this game on Homecoming weekend with so many members of the Baylor Family back home, and we encourage everyone to pack the Ferrell Center to raise as much money as possible in support of the Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund."

Limited concessions will be available. Parking at the Ferrell Center is free, but vehicles must be removed from the lot by 3 p.m. due to the 7 p.m. football game at McLane Stadium. Only vehicles with FC football parking passes can remain in the lot after 3 p.m.

We’ll do a quick breakdown of the game later this week. I’d expect to see just about everybody get some playing time. If you’re in Waco for homecoming, this is a fantastic way to spend time before the 7:00 football game.
