Coach Prime’s first “game” in Boulder will be a packed house.
Colorado’s annual Black and Gold Spring Game at Folsom Field on April 22 will be sold out for the first time in program history, according to an announcement on Thursday.
A record of “just over 45,000” is expected in three weeks. It’s also the first time CU’s exhibition will be broadcast to a national audience. ESPN’s Chris Fowler will call the game with Robert Griffin III as a color commentator and Quint Kessenich doing sideline duties down on the field.
Many are making the trip to see Deion Sanders’ debut as CU’s head coach.
