Colorado football faces a tough season opener this year in what will be a national spotlight game on a Friday night at home against Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets are on the upswing, with back-to-back 7-6 seasons. Georgia Tech narrowly missed a major upset of rival Georgia on the road to finish the 2024 regular season, falling in overtime by two points.
Georgia Tech will be looking to make an early road statement against a Colorado team that won nine games a year ago, but is undergoing some major changes after losing two legends of the program in Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders.
