Baylor Basketball will host College Gameday for third time
WACO, Texas – ESPN's College Gameday is returning to Waco for the second time in three years. The traveling program will originate from the Ferrell Center prior to Baylor basketball's Feb. 26 game against Kansas, which will be a white-out with t-shirts provided to all fans in attendance.
Baylor has hosted College Gameday five times previously, including twice for basketball. The Bears welcomed the basketball version first on March 5, 2011, prior to a matchup against in-state rival Texas. College Gameday basketball sites were pre-determined from launch in 2005 until prior to the 2014-15 season, when ESPN announced the basketball location would be chosen each week. BU also hosted the final College Gameday of the 2019-20 season for its game against Kansas on Feb. 22, 2022.
BU first hosted College Gameday's football version on Dec. 6, 2014, prior to the Bears' win over Kansas State to secure a second consecutive Big 12 championship. The gridiron Bears also hosted College Gameday for matchups against Oklahoma on Nov. 15, 2015 and Nov. 16, 2019.
The award-winning show is in its 18th season of basketball coverage. Host Rece Davis is joined by analysts Jay Bilas, LaPhonso Ellis and Seth Greenberg for an hour-long show beginning at 10 a.m. CT on ESPN. Dan Shulman, Bilas and Holly Rowe will be on the call for the 7 p.m. CT game against Kansas.
Additional information will be announced throughout the week.
