What to Know

The Baylor Bears will host the John Brown Golden Eagles to start their respective NCAA Basketball runs. Tip off is scheduled at 12:00 p.m. ET on November 9th at Ferrell Center.

Thursday's matchup is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: John Brown were smashing the glass last season, having averaged 48 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Baylor struggles in that department as they've been averaging 38 per game.

Looking back to last season, John Brown finished on the wrong side of .500 (0-1), but they'll be hoping to turn things around this year. On the other hand, Baylor had a phenomenal run, finishing with a superb 22-9 record.

John Brown was pulverized by Baylor 107-53 when the teams last played back in December of 2016. Can John Brown avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
