Rice's marching band used its halftime performance Friday to mock Baylor over the sexual assault scandal that rocked the Bears throughout the summer.

The band first formed an "IX" on the field (flipped upside down in the picture), representing the Title IX lawsuit filed against Baylor that alleged the school turned a blind eye to several sexual assault allegations during Art Briles' coaching tenure.
The band then formed a star shape to represent former Baylor chancellor Ken Starr, who landed in hot water after an independent investigation found he failed to act appropriately upon learning of the various allegations.
Briles coincidentally happens to be at the game as a spectator.
