Colorado faces ticket sales slump for Weber State home opener

Coach Deion Sanders has publicly urged fans to attend the Colorado Buffaloes' upcoming home opener against Weber State at Folsom Field. As of Friday night, the program remained roughly 5,000 tickets short of a sell-out for the game. Secondary market platforms show declining prices, with some listings falling as low as $42. This potential attendance dip follows a 3-9 campaign in 2024 and a subsequent drop in season ticket renewal rates. The current roster includes 44 new players who have yet to experience a capacity crowd at the venue. While the team remains a clear favorite for Saturday's 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff on ESPN+, the crowd size may challenge the program's record low set last November.
