Baylor’s game against Louisiana Tech, scheduled for 11:00 on Saturday, is now postponed. Pete Thamel of Yahoo broke the story.
Source: Louisiana Tech and Baylor are postponing their game scheduled for Saturday. Louisiana Tech had an outbreak of positive COVID tests in the wake of Hurricane Laura, as 38 players tested positive. Prior to Laura, they’d had just one positive over three weeks amid 350 tests.

With that many positives, it’s unclear when the game will be rescheduled. The teams don’t have matching open weeks once the season begins.
Baylor’s next game is scheduled for September 26th against Kansas. That one is in Waco.
We’ll see if Baylor can add an opponent to replace Louisiana Tech, if the teams are unable to play.
UPDATE: Baylor has confirmed that the game is postponed.
