The excitement is building fast in Boulder. After Deion Sanders was hired as the new head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, the buzz has been off the charts.
Coach Prime has made plenty of national headlines, and the Buffs’ long list of new commits and transfer portal players has things looking very promising after a 1-11 season in 2022.
The spring game is always a chance for the team to give a small glimpse of what’s to come in the season ahead, and this year’s game is already generating a ton of excitement.
General tickets are being sold for $10, and there’s a chance Folsom Field could be sold out on April 22 for Black & Gold Day.

Tickets went on sale to the general public on Monday and at this rate, they won’t last for long. Coach Prime also got everybody hyped up with an Instagram post earlier in February.
