What's Happening?
Deion Sanders kicks off his third season as head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes with a game against Georgia Tech. The Buffaloes have a new starting quarterback, Kaidon Salter, a transfer from Liberty, who won the position over freshman Julian Lewis. Georgia Tech, under coach Brent Key, is also in a transitional phase, having finished last season with a 7-6 record.
Why It's Important?
The game marks the beginning of a new era for Colorado under Sanders, who has been successful in season openers. The performance of Kaidon Salter is particularly significant as he steps into the role previously held by Shedeur Sanders, Deion's son. For Georgia Tech, the game is an opportunity to test their new lineup and strategies against a formidable opponent.
