Reports: Houston-Baylor postponed due to coronavirus guidelines

The football game that was scheduled for Saturday morning between Houston and Baylor has been postponed, according to several reports.

The Cougars and Bears agreed to face off against each other last Saturday after both teams had an open spot for a game.

Houston was originally scheduled to play Memphis this Friday before that game had to be postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak on the Tigers’ roster.

The decision to postpone the game comes from local government guidelines and contact tracing, not actual positive tests, according to Sic’Em 365,

According to the report, Baylor would have had a “significant” amount of players not been able to play from a specific position group had the game not been postponed.
