BOULDER, Colo. — The Colorado Buffaloes will hold their annual spring football game on Saturday, April 27.
The game will be part of CU's Black and Gold Day festivities at Folsom Field in Boulder.
CU said the spring game's television time is still to be announced and tickets will go on sale soon.
The Buffaloes will begin spring football practices March 18 and the team will practice for a week before taking off spring game before returning to the field April 1.
Last year, the Buffs sold out their spring game for the first time in program history and it was the only game aired by ESPN. CU said 47,277 fans braved a snowstorm to see the Buffs in action for the first time under Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders.
The Big 12 Conference and Colorado Buffaloes released their 2024 football schedules earlier this week.
This fall marks the second season the Buffs will take the field under Sanders. The Buffaloes also return to the Big 12 in 2024, their first season in the conference since 2010.
The Buffs open the season with three non-conference games, including the season opener at Folsom Field on Aug. 31 against North Dakota State. That game will be followed by road games against rivals Nebraska on Sept. 7 and Colorado State on Sept. 14.
CU said the last time the Buffs played in both Lincoln and Fort Collins was in the 1996 season, which is also the last time Colorado played at Colorado State.
Colorado ends the 2024 season at home the day after Thanksgiving, on Friday, Nov. 29, against Oklahoma State.
This season the Buffs will play nine of 15 conference opponents: Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Baylor, Texas Tech, Arizona, Utah, Central Florida, and Cincinnati.
Kansas announced Tuesday that several of its home games will be played at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs, while its campus stadium is renovated. Colorado's game on Nov. 23 will be played at the NFL stadium.
