WACO, Texas -- Baylor has added a home-and-home series with Maryland for the 2027 and 2028 seasons, it was announced on Friday.



The Bears replaced their two-game series with Oregon in a mutually agreed upon cancellation, and will now face Maryland in College Park, Md., on Sept. 18, 2027, before returning the game to McLane Stadium on Sept. 16, 2028.



Baylor’s 2027 schedule is now complete, with dates for conference games still to be assigned by the Big 12 Conference. The Bears will host UIW on Sept. 4, 2027 in the season lid-lifter, then travel to face Air Force on Sept. 11 in Colorado Springs, Colo., before traveling to face the Terps on Sept. 18 in College Park, Md. Baylor will have league home games vs. Arizona, Cincinnati, Oklahoma State, UCF and West Virginia, and will travel to face Kansas State, TCU, Texas Tech and Utah.



The 2028 schedule will include a season opener at home vs. North Texas on Sept. 2, 2028. BU will host the Terps on Sept. 18.



The meeting in 2027 will mark the third game in the series with Maryland and the first since 1956. The series is tied 1-1, with BU winning the meeting in College Park in 1956, 14-0, and Maryland claiming a 20-6 win over Baylor in 1955 in Waco.
