Houston’s road trip to Baylor this Saturday (Noon EST, FOX) wasn’t booked until Sept. 12 – of this year. It’s yet another twist in a 2020 season where anything can and will likely happen. It also marks the first time the Cougars and the Bears have met since 1995, the final season of the old Southwest Conference. The two shared membership, and played consecutively, from 1976 (when the Cougars became football members) until the league disbanded.
If the game is played as scheduled, there will only be two reunions pending between the eight programs that were SWC members when the league dissolved – Houston and Texas A&M and SMU and Texas – both of which were also last played in 1995. Arkansas, which fled the SWC for the SEC in 1991, has yet to reunite on the gridiron with its old league pals Baylor, Houston, and Rice.
