BOULDER — With the Colorado Buffaloes scheduled to open 2017 under the lights, head coach Mike MacIntyre will give his team a taste of the atmosphere Friday when the Buffs hold an evening scrimmage at Folsom Field.
CU opens the season Sept. 1 — two weeks from Friday — with a 6 p.m. game against Colorado State in Denver.
"We'll start practice the same time as the game, kind of simulate that, get used to catching kicks and punts and passes under the lights," MacIntyre said. "(It) shouldn't be that big of deal but I like doing that a couple times when we're playing our first game under the lights.
