Colorado and Colorado State resume football series in 2029
Summary

The Rocky Mountain Showdown is currently off the schedule following the final meeting between Colorado and Colorado State in 2024. Neither school has a game against the other for the 2026 season, which opens with Colorado playing at Georgia Tech on September 3 and Colorado State facing Wyoming on September 5. Future games for the rivalry are scheduled to resume in 2029. The schools have mapped out meetings through 2038, with all matchups intended to take place on the host team's home campus. These future contests shift away from the series' historical reliance on Mile High Stadium as a neutral site during Labor Day weekend. Dates for these games remain subject to change as the programs manage their respective non-conference schedules.
