SHAWNEE – Oklahoma Baptist notched its second straight, 7-4 regular-season record and on Wednesday, accepted an invitation to compete in the 2021 FunTown RV Heritage Bowl in Corsicana, Texas. It is the first postseason game in program history since OBU joined NCAA DII at the start of the 2015 campaign.
The green and gold will face off against Lone Star Conference representative UT-Permian Basin (5-5) at Community National Bank & Trust Stadium at Tiger Field on Dec. 4 at noon.
OBU is the third Great American Conference institution to compete in The Heritage Bowl. In 2018, Arkansas-Monticello represented the GAC and a year later, Southern Arkansas.
