New date announced for Colorado football’s opener against North Dakota State
Head coach Deion Sanders’ highly-anticipated second season leading the Colorado Buffaloes will start two days earlier than expected. Folsom Field will now open its doors for CU football’s 2024 season opener against the North Dakota State Bison on Thursday, Aug. 29, officials announced Monday. The game was originally scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 31. The game’s date change is likely due to television, although the start time and television network are yet to be announced. Those details are expected to be revealed toward the end of May, along with more information on Colorado’s next two games against Nebraska and Colorado State. When the end of August rolls around, Colorado and North Dakota State, one of the Football Championship Subdivision’s top programs, will meet on the gridiron for the first time in each team’s history.

Colorado high school basketball getting shot clock starting in 2026
A shot clock is officially coming to Colorado high school basketball. The proposal for a 35-second shot clock passed by a 40-30 vote (five abstained) at CHSAA's Legislative Council session on Tuesday. The rule will go into effect for all boys and girls varsity games starting in the 2026-27 season.
Nebraska showing interest in recent Colorado portal entry
The Nebraska Cornhuskers are one of a handful of programs that showed quick interest in Colorado Buffaloe’s portal entry, Dylan Edwards, according to multiple reports on X. Edwards, as a true freshman for Colorado, rushed for 321 yards and one touchdown across 76 carries while also recording 36 receptions for 299 yards and four touchdowns. The Derby, Kansas native had a breakout performance in his first-ever game last season as Colorado knocked off the then No. 17 ranked TCU Horned Frogs 45-42. In that game, Edwards rushed for just 24 yards on six carries but also had five receptions for 135 yards and three touchdowns. While Edwards did not have nearly the same amount of success the remainder of the year, playing behind a porous Colorado offensive line, the 5-foot-9, 170-pound tailback is still garnering quite a bit of interest already in the transfer portal. According to Parker Thune of Rivals, other programs that have shown quick interest in Edwards include Georgia, Texas A&M, Louisville, Kansas State, UCLA, Washington, Stanford, and, of course, Nebraska.
