WACO, Texas -- Baylor football has had its game at UCF adjusted and will now kickoff on Oct. 30 in Orlando, it was announced by the Big 12 Conference office on Friday morning.

Baylor will face UCF on Friday, Oct. 30 at the Acrisure Bounce House. Television information will be announced at a later date.

The game marks a return to UCF for the first time since a historic 2023 comeback win that saw the Bears rally from down 35-7 in the second half to post a 36-35 win over the Knights in Orlando. Baylor has won both of the meetings with UCF since the Knights joined the Big 12, including a 30-3 rout in 2025 at McLane Stadium.

The Bears will host a finale of the spring practice season, Baylor Fan Fest, on April 25 at McLane Stadium.

Baylor opens its 2026 season on Sept. 5 vs. Auburn in Atlanta.
