GAME NOTES
• Baylor faces its first true road test of the season at Memphis on Saturday at the FedExForum.
• This will be the first time since 2014 the two teams have met after announcing a four-year non-conference series over the summer. Following Saturday's matchup, Memphis will travel to Waco on Dec. 5, 2026. During the 2027-28 season, Memphis will return to Baylor. The final game in the series will take place in the 2028-29 campaign at Memphis in the FedExForum.
• Baylor holds a 141-136 all-time record against teams in the American Conference.
• The Baylor offense has been sharing the wealth with at least four Bears scoring in double-figures in all seven games.
• BU is ranked seventh in the nation and second in the Big 12 behind BYU in offense efficiency (123.1) according to KenPom.
• The Bears are third in the Big 12 and 27th in the nation in scoring offense (90.1).

• Cameron Carr earned his first weekly honor of his career after being named in the Big 12's Starting Five for his Week 3 performance at the Players Era tournament.
