Student governments dub Baylor-TCU football rivalry ‘Bluebonnet Battle’

By Michael Haag | Sports Editor

Baylor and TCU’s football rivalry is taking on an entirely different name when the two schools meet for the 119th time this weekend.

Student governments from both institutions formally announced the rivalry as the “Bluebonnet Battle” during a Zoom call Monday morning. Starting this year, the storied matchup will take on the new name and have a trophy that the winner gets to keep on campus until the next meeting.

Bears and Horned Frogs fans unofficially called previous meetings “The Revivalry,” but that name was never backed by both institutions.
