Baylor-Gonzaga Credential Advisory

Dec. 5 | Bankers Life Fieldhouse | Indianapolis

Credentials are now being accepted for the Dec. 5 contest between Baylor and Gonzaga at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The game will tip at 1 p.m. ET on CBS.

Capacity restrictions and physical distancing guidelines implemented by Pacers Sports & Entertainment and the Indiana Sports Corp, as established by the Marion County Health Department, may limit the number of media credentials available. We will do our best to accommodate as many media requests as possible.

To apply for credentials, please complete the attached form and return to Dan Mihalik (dmihalik at intersport.global<mailto:dmihalik at intersport.global>) by Tuesday, Dec. 1. All approved media will be sent more detailed event information.

With the Circle City serving as the backdrop for the 2021 national championship, Indianapolis will bookend the college basketball season with one of the sport’s most highly anticipated contests. Gonzaga and Baylor enter the season widely considered the country’s top two programs, ranking No. 1 and No. 2 in CBSSports.com’s Top 25 and 1, respectively. Additionally, either Baylor or Gonzaga was the No. 1 ranked team in the AP poll for nine consecutive weeks (Gonzaga from Dec. 23 to Jan. 19; Baylor from Jan. 20 to Feb. 23) last season.

Gonzaga, a 31-win team last year, welcomes back an all-conference worthy nucleus of Corey Kispert, Joel Ayayi and Drew Timme and also adds three top-100 freshmen to its roster, headlined by top-10 prospect Jalen Suggs. Baylor, which won 26 games and recorded its best overall winning percentage in program history (.867) in 2019-20, returns its top three leading scorers in All-America candidate Jared Butler, Davion Mitchell and MaCio Teague, along with Naismith Defensive Player of the Year finalist Mark Vital.
